So people stop asking, the "Bi" in my username is a reference to my love for the two greatest collegiate sports programs in the world, the Virginia Tech Hokies and the Marshall Thundering Herd.

Yea, I mean there's obviously going to be some of that but just nationally I don't see nearly as much of it as the other three. I'm sure being in their conference brings you closer to the insanity.

I mean its hard to basically eclipse the absolute stupidity that is the Longhorns of the University of Texas, but yeah.

Granted, we don't even have real rivals in the conference anymore.

LSU looked like straight rear end for most of the season.

They looked almost exactly the same as the last three of four years, including winning 9 games. Suspect offense, pretty good defense, boneheaded coaching and discipline problems. It’s like Les never left. That still puts them solidly in “okay” territory.

I agree, however I think this result pretty blatantly shows that the committee wanted Alabama in, hell or high water. Wisconsin could've pulled that win off at the end and the result would've been the same.

Losing just made the decision easier.

Florida, Florida State, Notre Dame, Ohio State, and Miami fanbases are far less likable than OU or Clemson.

But Bama and Georgia are insufferable.

I think the chances of 0% are pretty good, but that's the problem - if these teams all played right now, in a week or so, I fully think Clemson would destroy Alabama and Oklahoma would destroy Georgia.

But having a month to prepare makes it so Alabama very likely could win. I still think Georgia loses.

How good is Oklahoma's run defense?

Pretty much every fan base as a whole sucks so why even try to rank them. Groups of people who invest their identity in things that they are not directly involved in tend to be awful to be around.

I mean i pick on Georgia fans as much as the next guy but I lived in Tuscaloosa for 13 years and Bama people are pretty awful too.

That being said, roll tide.

Te committee just proved that everything they said about criteria is bullshit and their ties to the South matter most.

I think Ohio State is in if the Iowa game is a TD loss instead of a completely inexplicable blowout loss to an average team, that absolutely can't happen to a title contender in a sport that is part beauty pageant.

The committee is terrible but the only team that really can bitch is UCF. Other than that everybody with a strong argument for why they might be #1 got in, which is the whole idea behind having a 4 team playoff vs a single championship game.

This is why the Big 10 was dumb for moving to 9 conference games instead of 8 + FCS. Ohio State is playing Western Illinois instead of Iowa and in the playoff this year.

Yeah, I sometimes forget how awful other fans can be when I wander away from the chillness of TFF and see somebody losing their minds in a comments section or a sportswriter's Twitter mentions. It's rough out there.
