So if Miss St.wins their last 2 games they get to go to the playoff having not won their division, and not won their conference? That stinks. That’s like worse than lettling an undefeated FSU in.
Alabama won a title after have not won their division when they beat LSU. It’s par for the course in the SEC.
Yes. Totally nonsensical. Alabama wasn’t the best team in their division. Alabama wasn’t the best team in their conference. Proven on the field of play. But they were the best team in all of college football. Should never allow “playoff” games like that to happen, they expose the entire illusion.
Where’s Marshall, Scottie?
… and Penn State (Franklin), Washington (Petersen), Oklahoma (#21)
And Stanford (Shaw…. no relation to Josh)…..
And A&M (Sumlin)
Glad USC is ranked. It’ll make UCLA’s win this weekend look more impressive for the Committee.
Looks can be deceiving……..our win over Stanford looked pretty good in Week 2….now?….not so much…….BTW…. let’s not get too far ahead of ourselves, homeboy …..we still need to play the game on Saturday, the last time I checked…..
