Michigan
Washington
Florida St
Texas

If we are being honest, Texas should be above FSU.

Probably but an undefeated power 5 below a 1 loss is unlikely

 

[Mebert]

Even when it should absolutely be the case, I would be shocked if they left out the SEC. They are not going to treat that conference like the other 4.

FSU staying in the playoff is their win. I don't think anyone rational person would argue that they are better than Texas. Or Alabama for that matter.

Or Georgia, Ohio State, Oregon

Everyone would love that. But 16 teams is 4 extra games. That's fully a third of their season. That's a huge ask. Especially when the NCAA still tries to maintain that student athlete crap.

we don't seem to care that playoff HS teams play 16 plus games

 

[Gman]

Georgia really got jobbed by the refs... they gifted Alabama a 4th down conversion at the end of the 1st half, which ended up being a huge swing in a close game.

For that to be the reason Georgia is excluded after an otherwise great season is... well, it's a shame.

fsu winning will keep bama out of the college playoff,but what a great year i along with most bama fans did,nt expect after the texas loss.roll tide.

I don’t see Louisville coming back now to be honest, I don’t know if their piss poor offense can get in the end zone, they need to force a turnover badly. I’m afraid fucking FSU will be in the playoff, and they’ll clearly get stomped on - both Texas and Bama are clearly better teams than FSU but FSU will get in because they are unbeaten. Fuck.

OSU is too…..

 

[LoftonPack80]

I'd love a 16 team playoff and no freakin time off. This month-long break for the playoff teams is bullshit

I know we sometimes forget this.....but these kids are still student - athletes and that December break is purposely done for finals

 

[PIBuckeye]

And as I predicted Plummer shits himself. What a fucking bum.

FSU will get in and get creamed. Ruins the fucking playoff. I think it will be Michigan/Washington/FSU/Texas, but Bama will have legitimate anger about not getting in - they are clearly better than FSU and they just knocked off the #1 team and two time defending champions.

Everyone in the top 10 is better than fsu

 

[PIBuckeye]

So a cupcake is going to make the playoffs.

Whoever gets to play FSU in the semi will have been given an early Christmas gift. Hope it’s not scUM.

doesn't seem to bother the hoops players.

FSU is not a cupcake. You don't run the table in any P5 conference and be a cupcake.

Many thought TCU was a joke last year, but they proved their worth in beating Michigan. While they were exposed by Georgia, they deserved to be there.

Yes they are.
They became one when they lost their Qb

Anyone else in the top 10 would beat them let alone any of the 3 others in the CFP who would kill them.

They were given 2 chances to prove themselves and they didn’t. Sorry.

Sorry
The moment they started getting paid that premise gets flushed down the toilet.

Everybody thought Oregon was gonna smoke Washington on Friday as 9.5/10 point favorites.

They didn't.

Everybody thought Jawja would roll Bama in the SEC Championship. They didn't.

We should all be tired of "what we think will happen", and reward those that actually win when it matters most, not what eye test and experts seem to think.

No
Everybody did not think that. The duck talk was ridiculous

12 teams can be 4 extra games for some team too...

The premise was always a joke. Student-athlete was a term made up solely so the colleges could exploit them.
