But then he wouldn't get paid from LSU right? Kelly can just wait for a really good situation and get paid.

Get out of here with that. With that logic tOSU wouldn’t have won the natty last year and we’re asking computers and humans to get the top 2-4 right? Do you not remember 2008?

Based on the logic of his statement, yes. But if he was thinking logically, he wouldn't have stated that. What he really wants to say is Texas is out because they had 3 losses, which points to the real culprit: the OSU loss. But he can't say that because that would go against all of their stated criteria - that they don't follow. So he has to make this illogical statement to sound like they are actually evaluating things. But they aren't.

Right so when bama loses to Georgia they’re out and we’re in right? Now it’s even and their losses are worse than ours.

At this point let’s just expand the field to 32 and do away with conference championship games. Have the first 2 rounds at home then the last 3 on the road. Add another bye week for teams and let the chips fall where they may. Or adopt the same playoff structure the rest of the leagues below D-1a have been doing including high school. Let’s stop acting like D-1a is so exclusively different than other levels of football. The Miami ND thing is baffling to me how they can rank a team that far behind another with the same record and a head to head win is beyond me. When FSU got left out in 23 I thought it was wrong, even though I agree it wouldn’t have been as competitive a game against Michigan. Same with UGA in 23, Alabama last year, is this year, us in 2008, etc. There seems to be a willful disregard for logic and sense in major college football and it’s been broken for years. It’s so much better now, but you’re still considering G5 schools who have lost their coaches with a better shot to get in than a Texas or Miami. It’s absurd, absurd for the other teams in the playoffs that have to play real competition the first round, absurd for the schools left out, and absurd for the schools that are in. The G5 kids are the ones the worthless NCAA is referring to in their propaganda-mercials about “most of us go pro in something other than sports.” Stop feeds me dog poop 💩 and telling me it’s filet mignon. UGH, phew rant over

Expansion was a huge mistake. 4 team playoff was perfect and bcs 1v2 is better than more than 4.

is he on the jeremiah smith/cam coleman level?

If the Florida loss mattered, are they saying even at 10-2 with wins over OU and A&M, that we'd still be on the outside looking in? Their argument makes no sense. If we're 10-2 with losses to Florida and Georgia, we're ranked where OU is.

Stroh needs to go.

I hope that's true, otherwise you just wasted two scholarships on these guys. Seems like in this day and age you can just portal K and P.

You don't think either of these guys could man up and lick that G spot?

Following Hancock's logic, if Alabama played and lost to OSU and we played someone other than OSU and won - and everything else stayed the same - Alabama would still be in and we would still be out because all that matters is the Florida loss. Do these morons not realize that we can see through their idiocy? Hancock and everyone that keeps saying "it's the Florida loss" should not be allowed to eat cold soup with a spoon because they are that dumb. Strength of schedule or anything though provoking had nothing to do with the CFP decision. All they did was use their finger to count how many wins and losses and choose their favorite teams. Nothing else.

I don't think it's too big, but neither of those guys are built for the G spot. Stroh doesn't have that mauler mentality and Brooks does but he's more suited to T than G. I'd assume they'll bring in 3-4 guys on the IOL and we might see some attrition from guys already here.

You captured a lot of what the fans are feeling, Jeff. If the committee publishes principles, they need to follow those principles. It’s bad enough they adjust their process on a weekly basis, but they will even shift it within the same weekly rankings.

That was before the reports of Texas's NIL package

One of the national analysts (I forget which one) actually called him this afternoon and surprisingly he picked up. The only schools he mentioned were Oregon and USC.

One awful game from the center and left guard cost us the playoffs this year

Brooks needs to be at OT full time and Stroh needs to be at UTSA.

As I recall Texas was in the top 10 prior to the UGA loss. I'm pretty sure that the UF loss was on their CFP record at that point! Don't couldn't look at my grandkids & tell them the importance of achievement & integrity making comments like the committee throws out.

Stroh’s lateral movement in pass protection just isn’t what it needs to be for this level. Unless he’s going north and south in the run game i wouldn’t want him on the field.

Both

I am a broken record on this topic but I strongly believe we are headed towards the Big 10 recommendation for 24 teams in the CFP where round 1 puts seeds 9-16 as hosts to seeds 17-24. Winners play round two away at 1-8 seeds. There will still be debate on seeding but far less potential for debating inclusion in the CFP. It has become the end all be all goal to achieve/. Conference Championship games eliminated. December becomes a month of college football playoffs to go from 24 down to 8 teams by 12/31 - 1/1 quarterfinals. jmho. Hook em!! 🤘🏼🐂🧡

Stroh just isnt good enough
