This is still a rigged system. To get in the playoffs you should have to earn it not put in because one of these biased scumbags think one teams is better than the other. Since they’re rigging the system they are scumbags so the name fits! Y’all telling me they can’t come up with something to make teams earn their way in because I can. 4 teams gettin bye’s smh
TCU loses the last game of the season and don’t drop 1 spot so what makes anybody think when SEC teams lose a game they’ll drop in the polls? If they don’t drop TCU you know they won’t drop teams that they want in from the SEC. Should’ve just done away with the PAC and took 4 conference champs and they probably didn’t do this because of ND that leaves them greedy buttholes out.
It's gonna be fun watching them finagle! With 12 teams they have a lot more "wiggle" room than with 4!
You leave out any context as to why TCU didn't drop. You want to know why they didn't drop?TCU loses the last game of the season and don’t drop 1 spot so what makes anybody think when SEC teams lose a game they’ll drop in the polls?

- #5 Ohio State ALSO lost their last game of the season by 22 points: 45-23
- #4 USC ALSO lost in the PAC 12 Championship game by 23 points: 47-24
- #6 Alabama had 2 losses and did not win their division, let alone conference
- #7 Tennessee had 2 losses, one of them to unranked South Carolina
- #3 TCU lost in overtime to #9 KSU, a team they beat earlier in the year
So tell me, who did you expect TCU to fall behind? OSU who was obliterated by 22 points in their last game, USC who was curb stomped by 23 points in their last game, Alabama who lost twice and didn't even win their division, or Tennessee who lost twice and to an unranked team?
@roaminglion you watched what Alabama did to K-State and yes they should’ve dropped behind Alabama and you also watched what Georgia did to TCU. Nobody in their right minds could believe TCU could beat Georgia or Alabama that year. Teams like Alabama, Georgia and Ohio St can get a pass for losing the last game of the season but lightweight teams like TCU shouldn’t.
So Ohio State getting clobbered by Michigan means nothing?@roaminglion you watched what Alabama did to K-State and yes they should’ve dropped behind Alabama and you also watched what Georgia did to TCU. Nobody in their right minds could believe TCU could beat Georgia or Alabama that year.

LMAO... I can't even imagine saying "The system is rigged because a 2 loss Alabama, who didn't win their division didn't make it". Yeah, a blue blood team that's won more titles than anyone didn't make it and that's somehow proof it's rigged? Wut?
My lord, we have people on here complaining that the SEC gets too much credit and the system is rigged in their favor... and now when the SEC doesn't get in we have people complaining that the SEC should have been in and it's rigged against them. FFS.
@roaminglion We’re talking about taking TCU over Alabama for crying out loud a team that lost 2 games on the last play of the game. It’s not like I’m saying take Wisconsin over TCU it’s freaking Alabama a team that could’ve give Georgia a good game or beat ‘emTCU was a gimme game for Georgia but I guess that’s what some folks want.
So Bama gets a free pass because they’re Bama and TCU doesn’t get a pass because they’re not Bama? Your logic is just plain effed up and it looks like I’m gonna have to start calling you bubble boy again.
@psujoe you’re losing your college football credibility homer if you don’t see Alabama deserves the benefit of the doubt over TCU getting in the playoffs.
You know that's exactly what a rigged system is, right? One team getting the benefit of the doubt because of their name?@psujoe ...Alabama deserves the benefit of the doubt over TCU getting in the playoffs.
You just complained about a rigged system and then advocated for the system to be rigged.
@roaminglion it’s all we had to work with Roam I’ve said it’s been rigged. What wouldn’t be rigged is taking 4 P4 conference champs going forward and letting them play it out on the field.

Isn’t that what we had this year? But you whined and said GA should have been in the playoff.
Why don’t you just come out and say what you really think which is obviously that only teams from the southeast are worthy.

@psujoe Homer, I’ve defended Ohio St when they got screwed a few years ago. I forgot the year but when Alabama lost the last game of the season I said on this forum that they shouldn’t get in the playoffs. Had TCU won the big 12 I wouldn’t had a problem with them getting in but since they lost it comes down to is TCU better than Alabama and it’s not even close Alabama was the much better team. the Tide played around with K-State and still beat ‘em by 2 TD’s. TCU trying to compete with the SEC top dawgs is a joke, it ain’t happening. You saw what Georgia did to ‘em in the championship game 65-7.
There’s no way in hell that 2 teams from the same conference should make the playoff when only 4 teams get in. Conference championship games should have been included as part of the playoff, you lose in your conference championship and you’re out. I’d have no problem with keeping the playoff at 4 teams if they had followed that simple rule.

There you go again ignoring the fact that TCU won a semifinal to make it into the championship. Playoff blowouts happen at every level in every sport but it doesn't always mean a certain team didn't deserve to be in.
Yet TCU beat Michigan... that team who won it all this year.@psujoe Homer, I’ve defended Ohio St when they got screwed a few years ago.

@psujoe i agree 100% no team that didn’t win their conference should’ve made the playoffs I’ve always said that. TCU didn’t win their conference and got rewarded for losing just like Georgia and Alabama got rewarded for losing the last game of the season. No team deserves chit you need to win a conference championship to get in the playoffs and 12 teams doesn’t fix that, it makes it worse. We have 4 p4 conferences now this was easy to fix but it takes power out of the scam voters hands and they won’t give up that power.
@roaminglion Michigan won their conference championship TCU didn’t. You like the playoffs being watered down but I don’t. Everybody has their opinion and mine is win your conference championship and you get in the playoffs.
...but you were arguing that Alabama should have made it instead of TCU. If you really wanted conference champs you would have said Clemson, Utah, and KSU instead of Alabama.@roaminglion Michigan won their conference championship TCU didn’t. You like the playoffs being watered down but I don’t. Everybody has their opinion and mine is win your conference championship and you get in the playoffs.
@roaminglion you know I’ve always wanted just conference champs in the playoffs but I have to play the cards that we’re dealt. These people had the perfect opportunity to get a real playoff system going take 4 conference champs and letting them fight it out on the field that way all opinions are left out we could’ve have big 10, big 12, ACC and SEC playing for a real National championship. They just had to put their opinions in and water down the playoffs. 4 teams getting byes is a joke.
The 4 teams getting byes are the top 4 conference champions. Isn't that what you said you wanted?@roaminglion you know I’ve always wanted just conference champs in the playoffs but I have to play the cards that we’re dealt.

@roaminglion absolutely not.I don’t want any team getting byes
