For the sake of science, I believe the hoop should let you post these just this one time with no repercussions.

So the BCS was getting it right and all that needed to happen was expansion to 4 teams.

The CFP and BCS would have had the same 4 teams every season. My guess is this year will be no different. There was nothing wrong with the BCS IMO.

On both the AP and the coaches poll I believe we are the lowest ranked one loss P5 team. That typically is how it works for Michigan State.

It's mostly because of what happened last year IMO. If last year hadn't happened, probably in the top10.

Nothing wrong except that it needed to be 4 teams, but really only 3 teams and only in some years.

Playoffs are better, but I was never a fan of the committee - yet they haven't fucked up so far.

I agree. But again, we have looked like shit on offense and chicks dig the scoreboard. Ugly 14-10, 17-9 games aren't going to help our perception. The next three weeks will show what we look like against two legit teams. We failed miserably with our first test.

Still can't help but laugh at Miami being ranked in the top 10. It's worse than Nebraska being ranked like 7th last year at this point.

When Nebraska got up to that point they had a schedule strength in the 100's, according to Colley(easiest to find) and Miami has a schedule strength in the 50's as it currently stands. I'm not saying they'll finish top 10, but they are much more deserving than Nebraska was last year. Nebraska wasn't a top 10 team in the CPU's either like Miami currently is.

They also didn't need 2 miraculous come from behind wins against bad teams, either. Also how do you know what their schedule strength was in the middle of the season?

And those "bad" teams would have been signature wins for Nebraska for their first 7 games last year. I know because there are some cpu metrics that keep track of that. You think I made that up out of thin air? lol. I even referenced the source.

Question for you. I've never been a fan of either a committee or the polls...if all the
personalities were equal, wouldn't a committee be better than the polls? I mean a committee
sits around a table and discusses it all together. The polls...is 100 writers sitting alone with
nothing to guide them but regional bias.
