Remains to be seen how many games are actually played, lots of cancellations have already happened...I know this is completely irrelevant, but I just don't see a scenario where the Pac-12 makes the playoffs with this stupid seven week plan. How would a 7-0 Oregon or USC, with MAYBE one ranked win, make the game over, say, a 9-2 UGA? Seven weeks is a joke. It's not even worth doing.

For years you guys tried to discredit the SEC for playing one less IC game than the PAC. Now you are going to play 4 less IC games than the SEC, B12, and and the ACC. Any team with 1 or 2 losses will be considered before an undefeated PAC team, so long as they play 10 - 12 games that are scheduled. You can't just say, it's different this year. It's different because the PAC fucked up and brought it on themselves. Playing 4 less games, likely missing against the best other teams - as stupid as the PAC is, they will clear the way for Ore, USC and Utah - isn't a little thing. The the reasons you will be ignored are obvious:First off, there's no guarantee that teams will be able to play all of the games they have scheduled. So, 9-2 could verey well end up being 7-2 or 6-2 depending on how things go.
Also, considering that this is an unprecedented situation, the committee is likely to adjust their selection process. I expect things like the "eye test" will be used more than usual.
It'll likely be difficult and they will need some other stuff to happen, but it's definitely possible.

Playing 4 less games, likely missing against the best other teams - as stupid as the PAC is, they will clear the way for Ore, USC and Utah - isn't a little thing. The the reasons you will be ignored are obvious:
First, you simply can't compare the accomplishments ... so much could happen in the extra 4 games (losses, injuries, general wear and tear, etc). Second, it's the PAC who has not done well in the CFP, and has always been the first conference out. The CFP won't do them any favors, although that's all your crapping commissioner can say right now, but he doesn't believe that - he's just trying to figure out how to get another bonus before you finally fire him. Third, if you let them in, they are at a huge advantage of having played 4 less games, less likelihood of injury, fresher legs, etc. At the end of the day fairness will dictate, you fucked up by deciding to not play, you don't have a body of work we can compare against the other teams, and it would not be fair to allow you, a fresher team, to play teams that played 4 or 5 more games than you did.
Imagine trying to argue a 7-0 Oregon who played Cal, Stanford, WSU, UW, OSU, and the worst team in the south, then USC should get in before a 10-1 Bama SEC runner-up, who played UGA twice, Auburn, LSU, TAMU, UTjr, OM, MSU, Mizzou, Arky, and Vandy.
Ftfy., they will clear the way for Ore, USC and Cal
Sorry I don't follow Cal football. Not many people do. In the SEC or elsewhere. But, good to know you may be the 7-0 team that doesn't get in the CFP. That would suck.Ftfy.
It's amazing how little people from the sec know about Pac-12 football.
Pandemic doesn't affect the fact that your conference screwed up and will play 4 games less. It would be absolutely unfair to allow a PAC teams playing 4 less games to be in the CFP. They will know that and won't do it. Do you really not see the problem in a team playing 4 less games due to their own ineptitude?Was there a pandemic those other years?
No?
Then, nothing in your post, which I stopped reading after what I quoted, has anything to do with this season.

I obviously don't think it's like any other season. My posts make that obvious. And you are correct ... if the Alpha 3 conferences end up cancelling 3 or 4 games, then the PAC might have a chance. Absent that, pandemic or not, they won't let someone who played 4 less games into the CFP. Everyone not a PAC homer knows this to be true.Pandemic changes everything. We don't know how many games anyone is going to play. There have already been games cancelled.
Depending on timing, how many, if any make up dates there are...teams within the same conference may not be able to all play the same number of games.
Hilarious that you think this is in any way, like any other season.
Ftfy.

Cal is 15-3 when Garbers starts and finishes a game.
That being said...Cal is bringing back more starters and players with game experience than any team in the conference and it's not close.

Lol, in other words I can’t refute what your are stating, I give up but shall call you names. We’ll revisit this thread in a couple months.
Put my 2 up against yours any day of the week. You won’t like how that ends.
Weak response. You attacked, I responded. Don’t want someone to refute your nonsense, don’t say things you can’t back up. Think before you post.
