Brian Fowler Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 5 hours ago, Cobra Commander said: I'm thinking I read the wrong table (the table for the title game instead of the final four) Reading the right table.. 6 of the 8 ACC appearances were Clemson, 1 Florida State that you mentioned, and Notre Dame counts as ACC on that table. ND was ACC for 2020. Played a full conference schedule, made the conference title game. ----- If FSU beats Georgia, especially if they can do it by a couple scores, and if one of the one loss teams win the playoffs, I don't rule out the possibility the AP might vote a split champ like the (good?) ole days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 Oh, and just a "wow we really are about to enter a new era" note: the current top 12 features 5 teams that will be in the Big Ten next year (#1, #2, #7, #8, and #10) It also features six teams that will be in the SEC next year (#3, #4, #6, #9, #11, and #12) Florida State at #5 is the only team in the top twelve that won't be in the big two next year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Old-Fashioned Gamer Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 20 hours ago, Cobra Commander said: If you’re the Big 12 commissioner, how do you react to your champ being left out if your champ is leaving the conference anyways Big 12 is used to being left out. IRRC, they’ve had a team in the cfp five years out of 9 (Oklahoma 4x, TCU 1x). I think Big 12 has an image problem next year. Without Okla or Texas, they have a lot of teams, but are kinda short on bluebloods. Part of the reason they’ve only made half the cfp’s is that the committee dropped teams like Baylor at the end of the season because the perception was the Big 12 team played weak competition. Big 12 has had teams drop to 5 or 6 spot during final weekend on at least one or two occasions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Along with other teams outside the B10/SEC feasting on new opponents. The season probably starts with a lot of B10/SEC ranked teams and then some of them will get beat down as the year goes on. Especially the teams having to travel a lot to complete a schedule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammerva Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 Of all the lazy takes about why Florida State shouldn't have been in the playoff, the "you can thank TCU for them not getting there" is top 2. Wait you mean the same TCU team that beat Michigan in the semis. so we are supposed to act like that didn't happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolfan in NYC Posted December 4, 2023 Author Share Posted December 4, 2023 Herbstreit on the selection show was praising how BRAVE the committee was for putting in Bama over FSU, and basically laid the Noles' exclusion as exclusively the fault of Jordan Travis. Because, if he hadn't broken his leg, they get in. I swear to god, Kirk must really, really love his job. Because no one on earth is that sycophantic without some sort of incentive. Booger looked like he was ready to jump through the screen to choke him to death. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BloodyChamp Posted December 8, 2023 Share Posted December 8, 2023 Booger is as AWESOME on CFB as he was horrible on NFL football lol! I’m proud of my coach for being gung ho about playing Georgia, but I’m a little disappointed in some of the players and fans. If they don’t want to play then don’t play but don’t be all Colin Kaepernick about it. They still “vote” at the end? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And, yeah, Booger is much better in the studio doing college then he was in the booth trying to do color for the NFL.

Brian Fowler Posted December 8, 2023 Share Posted December 8, 2023 AP and Coaches polls both still come out at the end of the season. CFP committee is done for the year. I'm not sure if the coaches are still obligated to put the NCG winner at #1 like they were in the BCS era. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted December 8, 2023 Share Posted December 8, 2023 Although even when they weren't allowed to vote anyone else number one, three coaches did still put USC at the top after the 03 season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't you know Condoleezza Rice stayed up until 3am and barely touched her caviar platter, fretting over putting FSU at the 5 or 6 seed? Or the guy that was SEC vice president? He had to drink *LUKEWARM* bottled water, because he couldn't decide if Bama was going in at 3 or 4. You people act like the Committee aren't human beings. For shame. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
