The committee last week said that Bama and OSU had pretty much no separation so get ready for OSU at #4 since they value conference championships a lot.

Also worth noting (amazingly) is that Alabama's rear end-pull "third top 25 win" Fresno State lost and will fall out.

Goofus changes his mind on whether he wants a 4 or 8 team playoff depending on the quality of the worst P5 conference champion that year.
Gallant is not so fickle and consistently advocates for [4/8] teams.

This is a The_Donald-level meme and you should be ashamed of quoting it

LOL at assuming all SEC hate is because of ESPN and not exhaustion at every season ending the same way

The rest of the SEC also hates Alabama.

LSU (and Florida and Auburn) are part of the problem.

Though to be fair, Georgia winning this year would be fine. But I can't root for them today because they're playing before we know Bama is out.

Neither Florida nor Auburn nor LSU have appeared in the playoffs.

You know this poo poo goes back longer than the CFP.

Florida hasn�t been relevant for a decade, LSU and Auburn have most recently lost National Championship appearances, and teams like Clemson and OSU or Oklahoma are much more likely to be the �ugh, this again!?� teams these days.

3 NCGs have featured no SEC teams since 2003 and Ohio State and Oklahoma have barely more/better NCG representation than any of the SEC teams being discussed in that time + are mostly the only teams that visible in their conferences.

Just accept the jealousy even if you think it's undue. Unbelievably, it would more endearing than whatever you're stubbornly sticking to right now.

Like half of those appearances have been Bama.

How do you not get that these teams don't have to share the blame perfectly equally to be just as hateable for the same reason

You can hate whoever you want and I can think it�s stupid. It�s good to be free.

You seem to have been peeved, though, that I lumped LSU in with that pool even though they were culpable in the worst BCS-present NCG, basically the culmination of the SEC hate.

Otherwise I guess you're just an outrageous pedant? Wish I had known that sooner.
