Nolebull813 Posted December 30, 2018 Report Share Posted December 30, 2018 These players have a reason to vent. They were promised by some pencil neck suit and tie assholes who run this selection process as a side hustle. They were promised that if they are one of the 4 best teams in the country they will be able to participate in a playoff for a national championship. Meanwhile they were lied to and had the carpet pulled from under them at the last second to allow a team with one of the worst defenses in college football history and the worst undefeated team in history. Notre Dame scraped by some shit teams and their record was ranked instead of on field performance. When there was nowhere to hide they got a running clock put on them. Georgia fans, players and coaches were probably mad as hell watching those games yesterday. They picked Oklahoma strictly from a TV audience perspective and chose Notre Dame as if they have an automatic bid as long as they win their shit schedule regardless of how bad they played or their opponents were. This selection process need a major overhaul 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You were ok with Florida State, Michigan State, Washington, Notre Dame and Oklahoma 3 times? But not ok with the team who won the National Title?

Bormio Posted December 30, 2018 Report Share Posted December 30, 2018 The process is designed to generate controversy and anger. The powers that be want that = ratings, clicks etc. No one argues who should make the NFL playoffs because it is cut and dried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Losing that game to #1 doesnt mean they arent 1 of the 4 best teams though. Is it fair Notre Dame gets to play trash and sit home Conference Championship week.... While Georgia is playing Alabama or visa versa. Notre Dame wont get the benefit of the doubt so easy next time after that drubbing... A drubbing anybody not from the Midwest with starry eyes could see coming. Notre Dame wasnt good, and didnt deserve shit. Luckily they come to Athens to play Georgia next year...

You have 2 and 3 loss teams winning High School State Championships in many states........ I"ve grown tired of Notre Dame and Oklahoma failing every other year... I don't guess I can blame these GA guys for venting. https://www.wwltv.com/article/news/nation-world/georgia-players-mock-cfp-committee-after-notre-dame-blowout/507-625358647 GA lost twice this season, and didn't win their conference. Having 2 losses, but winning a major conference is a lot different scenario. Last season, Ga got blown out by Auburn, but won the conference. Big difference. For me, the biggest mistake was taking a one loss Oaklahoma over a one loss Ohio St. this season. Both won their conferences, but the eye test said, at least for me, that Ohio St had the upside talent to get to the next level and challenge both Clemson and Alabama. Notre Dame was unbeaten and hard to argue them not being there, except for the eye test, which said they shouldn't. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Posted December 30, 2018 Report Share Posted December 30, 2018 I really don't care much as I am far from a GA fan but I have a question? If the top say 4 teams play each other in some form during the season be it one team or a couple of the teams, there will be losers. Does that loss then mean they are still a top 4 team? I've seen that logic used here a lot when people talk about a quality loss. People say GA didn't win their conference. The conference championship was played between the #1 and #2 teams in the nation at that time. One team had to lose. If it were a blow out, maybe it should have an ipact and maybe not. Depends on the way you look at it but none the less, in a tight game with a one score game, should it knock you out of consideration? There are hundreds if not thousands of high school teams that go undefeated every year that don't get considered for the MNC because they don't play tough schedules. Just an observation/question. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In college football, every week of the season is considered part of the playoffs. You lose once or twice and your out. UGA needs to concentrate on beating Bama instead of trying to backdoor into the CFP. A Hoover Buc started on that perfect NFL team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The theory is that the four best are the four best. This year does not fit the scenario you pose as GA lost to definitely non-top four LSU, and badly at that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotBigdaddybloom Posted December 30, 2018 Report Share Posted December 30, 2018 The CFP is a business. They don’t care about your football prowess, they only care what will be good for ratings and therefore business. When they decide how to make the most money from an eight team playoff, it will come to fruition. I guess diversity is another catch phrase that really is lip service...
