POLL One view about the Playoffs

[smilesid]

Holy shit a Smiles sighting. Quick one of you OU homo's send the bat signal to Spinkiller, we can have an old school Boise vs Oklahomo smackdown.

Bring it

College Football Playoff is just another fake way to determine national ‘champion’

"But college football still hasn’t plugged the largest hole in its system: It’s possible to win every game you play and not be the champion of your sport. You just won’t find that in other championship systems."

Agree or disagree? Why?

If there was an 8 team playoff yes, but as it stands with 4 teams and 5 p5 conference champs, a strong hell now.

 

[TheDayMan]

That's not true.

Those top 4 schools are picked by a beauty pageant committee. In basketball, baseball, and every other NCAA sport, any team that is undefeated will absolutely find a spot in the playoff format. And in every other NCAA sport, we have examples of where one of those lesser regarded schools wins!

You see, criteria for power 5 and G5 schools is mainly money. You bet, when a power school has a budget four or ten times bigger, it stands to reason that they'd have a better change, after all they can hire top coaches and pay off (er, motivate) top recruits. I contend that being undefeated, especially when no other team is should give the team a shot.

Basketball, baseball, and every other NCAA sport are vastly different than football.

 

[smilesid]

You wouldn't want them played on the road because your G5 teams wouldn't get the payday that helps balance their budgets for playing them. Don't know why his comment got you so defensive, it was true.

Thanks for proving my point. Big time football is mainly about money, not fair competition.

 

[tnapucco]

I was really disappointed that there never was a STUDIO 54 here in the Disco Era....

...and why wasn't BAYWATCH based here in Oklahoma? Dafuq?

 

[broncosmitty]

Let the G5 have their own play off.

They shoulda broke away long ago imo.


Why bother competing at a level you don't really serve as anything but non conference filler?

 

[broncosmitty]

Money.


I know the answer.

 

[Edisto_Tiger]

Y'all are kidding yourselves if you think a G5 schedule provides the same challenges as a P5 schedule. And baseball and basketball are not the same as football when it comes to being competitive and/or parity.

 

[TheDayMan]

Thanks for proving my point. Big time football is mainly about money, not fair competition.

So, start a rally for g5 and FCS schools to stop taking the money then.

 

[smilesid]

Basketball, baseball, and every other NCAA sport are vastly different than football.

Hmmm, every other NCAA football division, and every professional league every formed don't do it the way FBS football does it either.
The only sport that follows the FBS format is figure skating, well, and synchronized swimming.

I don't have the contact information for him, he's probably on his huge yacht somewhere with naked ladies sunbathing all around him while Barry Switzer and Bob Stoops look on.

Actually, Boise is doing just that. We are now only playing PAC schools as a home & home deal, and won't do a guarantee game unless it's at a neutral site.

I was happy we covered the spread in the Cotton Bowl last year.


Beating two BIG schools in one season was enough.

Yeah, they should all have to play Mercer.

 

[outofyourmind]

Wrong. In the only time we played your school, we led most of the game and won. But your school refused to schedule a home & home. I guess that being undefeated in 3 BCS bowls doesn't count.

You're clueless, do you think for one minute that every team doesn't go out with the object of winning? But then again, you did pick "out of your mind" as your screen name. Makes sense.

Maybe we need ESPN to get involved in a neutral site game and up the payment so it can happen.
Or maybe it was the same years we are doing a Home/Home with Army or Tulane or something.

 

[4down20]

And your chicken shit team nor any other top SEC team wouldn't be caught dead playing one of those schools on the road, so tell me, how are those G5 teams supposed to get those games scheduled? What, you want them to play them all on the road? Yeah, got it.

You offer nothing and you won't admit it. You're like the fat girl who thinks she's a 10 but is closer to a 2 and ends up being 50 years old with 20 cats claiming there are no good men out there. So you can either get out there and make some shit happen, or you can cry yourself to sleep every night while fucking yourself with a vibrator - nobody else is going to give a shit.

The reality is the Big12 decided to add TCU, a state with a market it already had and WVU, then looked over at Boise St and said "Nah, we're going to see how this 10 team thing plays out".

I loved that Boise State proved a point when they bear Oklahoma.

Hmmm, lower divisions, and the NFL aren't structured like the FBS either. Your bitch should be that the g5 conferences are included in the FBS, not that they don't get the same consideration as the P5 programs.

The only naked ladies he sees are through high powered binoculars or on his computer screen.

 

[Edisto_Tiger]

Yeah, they should all have to play Mercer.

Mercer and who else? Bama, Miss. St., Ole Miss, Arkansas, A&M, UGA, LSU?
