I think it was that gritty 14-7 fourth qtr come from behind win over 1-11 Georgia State that did it. Ten of their 12 wins were against teams that didn’t have a winning record. Can’t make this up. ND, BYU, Texas, Vandy, Utah, Michigan, USC fans etc have to be shaking their heads. The committee successfully angered a ton of fans.

I hope Oregon beats James Madison 100-0.

First TD catch and run by Bishop:

With this committee, who knows. If the final is 13-10 I could see them putting IU at one and OSU at two. But I wouldn’t bet money on anything they might do.

If we are dumb enough to continue scheduling Ohio State, Michigan etc then I don’t want to hear Sark or Del Conte complain about our schedule. We have control over our non conference schedule. We all know the rules now….only wins and losses count, not level of competition. Texas Tech is laughing. Texas and OU left the Big XII and they diluted the conference with mediocre teams. TT decides to schedule nobody in non conference play, then can’t even go undefeated in conference play after losing to ASU and they still get a playoff bye. UT mindset. Play toughest regular season schedule in the nation and then when we don’t make the playoffs, complain that everyone else played an easier schedule. Either adapt or STFU. Nobody is making us play those games.

It will be interesting to see if Campbell does better at PSU than Franklin at VT.

The committee should be fired for ranking Notre Dame over Miami even though Miami beat ND and they both have 10-2 records. It’s as if Miami never played ND. Why even play the game. Flawed logic implies there was logic to begin with. Their selection process is simple. They look at won loss records and pick the prettiest records. Here are their top 13 rankings. Ohio State: 12-0 Indiana: 12-0 Georgia: 11-1 Texas Tech: 11-1 Oregon: 11-1 Ole Miss: 11-1 Texas A&M: 11-1 Oklahoma: 10-2 Alabama: 10-2 Notre Dame: 10-2 BYU: 11-1 Miami (Fla.): 10-2 Texas: 9-3

Yep, and if we were to sneak in and lose in the first round we would never live it down.

I had forgotten all about Morris. Had to look up his bio. You weren’t kidding about his descent.
