Projecting the College Football Playoff top 12 after Week 6 - ESPN
As I have said and am clearly on record as predicting...They lose and they stay the same...Check out the top playoff teams with 1 loss and where they rank ABOVE undefeated teams from other conferences...Check out how many 1 loss teams from the SEC are rated ABOVE undefeated teams from other conferences...they are gonna rig the seeding system so that these SEC teams ALL play home games in their first round game...New system but same ole farce...
The power of what they call THE BULLY PULPIT.
Not limited to College Football Playoffs.
Have we determined if the computer program the committee uses starts with basis rating or does it wait so many weeks to develop team strengths independently?
Then I assume the computer result is public but the independent committee doesn't have to follow it...if they did all we would need is a program.
There is a computer ranking right?
As I have said many times...You wanna rig something you appoint a committee...You have a team that lost to Vanderbilt for God sake and they still have em 3rd or 4th I don't remember...the first 7 teams are from the SEC...Ahead of undefeated teams from other conferences...These people insult your intelligence...
Sagarin is the most used and respected computer ranking, and it does not use any baseline rankings for its calculations. Early on, it's rankings look a bit crazy but after weeks of input data it starts to look more legitimate.The power of what they call THE BULLY PULPIT.

Polls havent come out yet, so what are you talking about? Who has what where?As I have said many times...You wanna rig something you appoint a committee...You have a team that lost to Vanderbilt for God sake and they still have em 3rd or 4th I don't remember...the first 7 teams are from the SEC...Ahead of undefeated teams from other conferences...These people insult your intelligence...
"The first 7 teams are from the SEC"? HUH? Ohio State? This statement just flat out isnt true.
I don't give a good God damn what computer comes up with this nonsense...My brain tells me this is a sham and it is a sham...Keep twisting yourself in knots to tell yourself this is ok...They lost to fu*kin VANDERBILT...If anybody else lost to Vanderbilt they would be out of the top 10 and probably down to about 18 or 19...Remember...computers don't play the game the players do...They played a game and the sacred cow lost...So now we have to come up with a "system" or a "committee" to finagle this thing to keep them up near the top so they don't gotta travel north to play a game in december...If they deserve in at all...
Dude, at a certain point calm the eff down. He asked a question about computers and I answered it. You're calling Southern a shill in another post.I don't give a good God damn what computer comes up with this nonsense...My brain tells me this is a sham and it is a sham...Keep twisting yourself in knots to tell yourself this is ok...They lost to fu*kin VANDERBILT...If anybody else lost to Vanderbilt they would be out of the top 10 and probably down to about 18 or 19...Remember...computers don't play the game the players do...They played a game and the sacred cow lost...So now we have to come up with a "system" or a "committee" to finagle this thing to keep them up near the top so they don't gotta travel north to play a game in december...If they deserve in at all...
FFS man, there is disagreeing with people and then there is calling people stupid and corrupt.
Listen...I have made my stance and predictions on this...If you guys want to believe the pablum they are feeding ya'll so be it...This isn't complex enough to need a computer or a committee to figure out...They use these tools to make sure their predetermined outcome happens...A team just lost to Vanderbilt and they are trying to convince us it don't matter and none of these unbeaten teams belong to ranked ahead of em...Forgive me for calling out somebody and questioning their ability to reason...Any team that doesn't have Alabama or Georgia on their jerseys drop down out of the top 15...Even Notre Dame dropped way down after they got beat...I guess that loss to a bad team matters more...I will say this...Propaganda is a very powerful tool...Forgive me as I am getting older and my patience levels aren't what they used to be...I am on the record...I will no longer post on this topic...Lets see how accurate I am at the end...
You need to understand the difference between someone asking a question about a computer, me answering it, and both of us believing "a computer is needed"Listen...I have made my stance and predictions on this...If you guys want to believe the pablum they are feeding ya'll so be it...This isn't complex enough to need a computer or a committee to figure out...They use these tools to make sure their predetermined outcome happens...A team just lost to Vanderbilt and they are trying to convince us it don't matter and none of these unbeaten teams belong to ranked ahead of em...Forgive me for calling out somebody and questioning their ability to reason...Any team that doesn't have Alabama or Georgia on their jerseys drop down out of the top 15...Even Notre Dame dropped way down after they got beat...I guess that loss to a bad team matters more...I will say this...Propaganda is a very powerful tool...Forgive me as I am getting older and my patience levels aren't what they used to be...I am on the record...I will no longer post on this topic...Lets see how accurate I am at the end...
No one said we need a computer. He asked a question about it, and I answered with why it is used. That's it.
Clam down. Lol
You can go back and look, I was for Florida St getting in the playoffs last year but until teams like Oregon can beat the big dawg SEC teams and not lose 49-3 I’m not confident they can beat them and why should I be? Yes it’s a new year but Georgia and Alabama have recruited better.results matter the last couple of years u der the system we have.
