Alabama vs. Florida State to start things off...

[TwoInAMillion]

Good game so far but it looks like Alabama is slightly better, both will probably be in the playoff(which I think should ultimately be 8 teams).

[TwoInAMillion]

This is you right?

[TwoInAMillion]

I love how the announcers say an Alabama FG is a victory for the FSU defense when the offense has only scored 7 points.

[TwoInAMillion]

FSU is blowing this game away...

[TwoInAMillion]

At least there are pretty girls at your college tho.

[TwoInAMillion]

We should do a college football betting game. Where you start with $100 and see what you can end up with.

[TwoInAMillion]

Yeah but I'm too cheap to gamble for real.

[TwoInAMillion]

Getting into College Football fever mode so I am playing NCAA Football 13 on the XBox if anyone has it and wants to play against me.

[TwoInAMillion]

Not sure why Washington state dropped a spot in the polls after beating a top 50 team in Boise st

[TwoInAMillion]

USC barely beating Texas looks like that USC may be a winnable game for Washington State in two weeks, especially since it is in Pullman and the weather may start getting colder. if we do win, that should be a huge jump in the polls for the Cougs and we may be a top 10 team after that.

[TwoInAMillion]

I did, yes.

[TwoInAMillion]

Don't look now, but if Georgia, Alabama, and Notre Dame all lose, Miami could end up jumping from #7 to #1 in one week.

[TwoInAMillion]

Wouldn't mind wisconsin winning but they are probably overmatched against the SEC.

[TwoInAMillion]

Looks like the playoffs will be....
1) Clemson 2) Oklahoma 3) Georgia 4) Wisconsin or Ohio St

[TwoInAMillion]

Clemson def. Ohio St.
Georgia def. Oklahoma

Georgia def. Clemson

[TwoInAMillion]

Wow they picked alabama over ohio state, I am very surprised considering Ohio St was a conference champion.

[TwoInAMillion]

U c f had no games against top 10 opponents until auburn so they deserved their ranking.

[TwoInAMillion]

Sort of doesn't cut it. There is a history of teams from minor conferences with perfect records losing when they go against good competition. How many national championships has Boise State won?

[TwoInAMillion]

It's not the SEC's fault they have the two best teams.

[TwoInAMillion]

The highest recruiting class from a minor conference was u c f at no 55. That shows the disadvantage they are at for being competitive.

[TwoInAMillion]

Considering their scheduling, yes.

[TwoInAMillion]

Apparently UCF is raising a national championship banner and holding a national championship parade. That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard and if they ever won a championship in the future it would dilute that since they clearly don't respect the championship committee.

[TwoInAMillion]

If that's the case any 0-11 team could claim a national championship. If you're wanting a legitimate national championship whining's not the way to do it.

[TwoInAMillion]

More difficult non conference schedule would have helped.

[TwoInAMillion]

More difficult non conference schedule would have helped.

kek

Non-conference teams don't want to play actual good G5 teams, only the shitty ones (and some FCS). The schedule is not their fault at all. It's extremely difficult to get P5 teams on board with a schedule against them.

It's not the major conference teams fault that they are in an inferior conference either. UCF blames the major schools that they have more losses, so why wouldn't they want a cupcake game or two? But they have an inferior non conference schedule and an inferior conference schedule. They can't have everything both ways.

[TwoInAMillion]

More difficult non conference schedule would have helped.

So, how do you expect them to get more difficult non conference opponents? Teams in the big conferences aren't (or shouldn't) schedule a tough out of conference opponent...Why are teams going to choose to face UCF when they could face Texas St-San Marcos and still not worry about SOS cause of their in conference games?

There are teams that want to face tougher competition. I get what you're saying but it's not anyone else's fault their SOS sucks.

[TwoInAMillion]

The reception for president trump wasn't as bad as it could have been...

[TwoInAMillion]

That's what I was thinking.

[TwoInAMillion]

They were 12 tho

^

ohio st, wisconsin, auburn, usc would've been added
then people would complain about 3/8 being sec teams

Make it a rule that you can't have more than 2 teams from a conference, because then you won't get 3 SEC teams every year because college football pundits love to jack themselves off to the SEC.

The fact that both SEC teams won their semifinal hurts your argument.

[TwoInAMillion]

If Georgia goes into a shell and runs the ball the rest of the game that might lose the game for them, we'll see what happens.

[TwoInAMillion]

3 downs, 3 runs. 3 and out. Told you so.

[TwoInAMillion]

Central Florida would have lost 68-0 to Alabama probably.

[TwoInAMillion]

Yeah apparently it's okay to declare yourself national champions but I'm trolling.

[TwoInAMillion]

Well you know what they say about opinions....

[TwoInAMillion]

Yes, because other than that their schedule sucked. Alabama beat several other good teams that UCF didn't, including LSU, Mississippi St, Clemson, and Georgia. 4 good wins > 1 good win.

[TwoInAMillion]

Stop twisting my words.

[TwoInAMillion]

I never said that UCF didn't beat Auburn. I said that Alabama's body of work>UCF's body of work. You can't just look at one game. Your argument is that UCF has trouble scheduling harder teams and that's not the fault of the harder teams that already have a tough schedule.

Also, in a poll of 61 sports writers, the final AP poll only 4 agree with you. So you seem to be in the minority as far as experts are concerned.

[TwoInAMillion]

You're just throwing crap at the wall now.

[TwoInAMillion]

No i did not say that. I said that which one was greater was opinion, which is true given that the AP poll was not unanimous.
