Can we get Mack Brown to pull him this way?

So head to head matters but only sometimes? Why were we ranked behind Vandy in the last poll even though we beat them and it was WORSE not closer than the score indicated. BYU being ahead of us is just a f-u to Texas for thinking we could possibly bring a valid case to upset this stupid approach. We need to expand now. We have teams opting out of meaningless bowl games because there’s literally zero point to playing them for the older guys. Common opponents ND loses to us too. Miami does deserve to be in but somehow they magically moved up 8 spots with a win over Pitt versus us moving 3 spots and being ranked ahead of them with three losses and a dominant win against the number 3 team in the country. We shouldn’t have lost to Florida?? Fine, then kick bama out and put BYU in because they shouldn’t have lost to FSU. G5 has no business being at the table and effectively created a bye for the 2 teams that play them. Instead we get a Bama OU snooze rematch? Horrible, just pitiful. The irony at this point is that we wanted TAMU and OU to go deep enough in the playoffs and get smoked by osu and UGA so we again have an argument posthumously that they got it wrong and we should’ve been dancing.

Absolutely, if anything they need to go the other way. ND will not be considered for the CFP until they join a conference. In fact, no independent team will be allowed to participate in the CFP.

Agree!! What a pitiful joke that is.

We could have stopped them. Zero logic there. There’s a massive difference between hey we’re in but not playing a home game versus hey, we’re clearly one of the best 12 teams in the country but aren’t even in the playoffs because we have two sacrificial lambs that are going to be in over us and Miami. As a fellow season ticket holder I’d rather the option to purchase playoff tickets for the first 2 rounds than going to a meaningless bowl game.

Preach!

Any thoughts on Matai Tagoa'i for LB depth here? I thought j remembered his name from last recruiting class. @CJ Vogel

You know it might just work this time. Let’s do it!

Kirby Smart shouted out Texas as one of the best teams deserving a chance on SEC football final. Another advocate for us. Let’s stop this charade with G5 teams and put Texas and Miami in and let’s do this thing right.

Hell they haven’t scored a TD against us in over 2 years and 3 out of the last 4!!!

Update -3 rushing yards

Bama 18 yards rushing. I seem to remember a committee leader talking about how Texas couldn’t run the ball against UGA. Whelp we aren’t the only ones. Also, has anyone noticed that ESPN has now taken Texas completely out of the narrative and it’s all about ND AND Miami getting in no mention of us at all and our good wins. Even going so far to say that Alabama had beaten 4 ranked teams in a row and no other team had a better resume than that. I’m saying, umm except for Texas. Cowards.

Lame can get outta here with that mess we’re hanging on to Clark
