Why not texas ??

[Zachery Nelson]

I know the chances are slim but why not texas ! 
Why should bama still get it ? Over us ?

The fact of the matter is Texas has a plenty good resume but not in the areas the committee values.

Will have to adjust accordingly after Ohio St and Michigan home games.

Glad this new playoff system has been so successful in eliminating the drama of previous years.

I really don’t understand, miami played in the worst conference, played against NEITHER of the teams in their conference championship, lost to SMU, lost to Louisville, but I’m supposed to believe that they’re so great and playoff worthy.

They beat ND by 3 week 1, why is that such a great win and put them in the conversation?

ND lost to both good teams they played, one of which we dominated and beat by 10 and kneeled the clock out, maybe sark next time should go put up 6 more points.

I have to disagree texas loss to Florida and Georgia , the committee came out and said they weren’t gonna count the games like Ohio state against teams  but yet here we are . Yeah the Florida loss was bad but go look at the bama loss it’s worse than that . So if they get in over texas that is bullshit

Don't forget who is in charge of the committee, the Arkansas AD. Good luck with that.

We could be in this same spot next year with Ohio St at home and road games at Tenn, A$M, and LSU and with OU at Dallas.  Not to mention a playoff team in Ole Miss at home.  We also play Florida at home and  I predict they will be much better next year with a new staff and a veteran team and easier schedule.

I agree with you, but what the committee said in the off-season and what theyre doing now are different things. They're showing you what they value now.

There’s really not much havoc. This is a Texas fan problem trying to get into the last spot. In the past, undefeated or really strong 1 loss teams would get left out. Today they don’t.

Objectively, in over half our games, we played poorly and not close to playoff level football. Period. We lost to a 4 win team in maybe our worst game in 3 years. We quit in the 4th against Ga.

We don’t deserve to get in. 

Now, our argument to get is that we sit on the fringes and our overall resume provides a stronger argument to get in over other fringe teams. That’s fair. The goalpost moving and bias against Texas is ridiculous and frustrating but let’s stop using language that suggests we earned our way in. We lost 3 games. Crying about the schedule and who we played means we’re looking for a formula vs building a team that wants to play and beat other strong teams.

We had 3 chances to win one game with fl and osu right there for the taking. We didn’t. A 2 loss Texas is in. Period. 🤘🏽

My guess is the college football world has ‘Texas Fatigue’ and are using any lame excuse possible to keep us out.

Identical types of teams, either could be in, neither will win a championship.

Looks like it should just be Indiana v Georgia this year.  Watch the committee mess this one up too and put them both in the same semifinal.

The committee doesn’t value it, but they should based on their rules written in their guidelines. They must have a new addition of the rule book that no one else has yet lol.

Agree if Oregon gets healthy they could be a sleeper. Bama redemption against OU, and then Indiana should be fun
