NCAA playoffs

What a mess. Georgia, number one all year, loses by 3 and may be out.

New #1 Michigan of course is in,.

New #2 I assume Washington is in.

Florida State was #4 and they remain unbeaten, but putting them in is a waste because their QB is out. Still, unbeaten probably is in.

So now what? Georgia lost one game by a FG after being #1 all year. But you can't put them in over Alabama with one loss who beat them. But you can't put Alabama in over Texas with one loss who beat Alabama.

Chaos.

4 best teams..... Alabama, Georgia, Texas, Michigan. Washington and FlaState can start crying about it. But this aint gonna happen..... and we didnt even mention Ohio State with only 1 loss to undefeated Michigan.

Relegation would eliminate chaos and offer many more competitive tilts all season long. Think outside the box.

I think the selection committee will go with 1) Michigan 2) Wash 3) Alabama 4) Florida State.

I think Georgia, Texas, Ohio State, Mizzou, and other teams would beat Florida St under these circumstances. But they can’t keep them out, because they are undefeated.

If you go by the end of season rankings, which matter way more than preseason or early season rankings, you have the Top 10 teams for the completed regular season.

Then you go Florida State you played ZERO Top 10 teams you are out.

Georgia you beat ZERO Top 10 teams you are out.

That's called play a pussy schedule suffer the consequences.

Michigan, Washington, Alabama, Texas in.

(Although I see the Committee not seeing it how I do and Georgia or FSU could very well bump one of these teams....like Pete said chaos)

LSU was #5 until Florida State beat them. I guess you are saying that Florida State didn't beat any teams that ended up in the top 10? I'm not sure that's how it works. If you beat a #5 team, obviously they go down in the rankings afterwards.

Good to see the passion here CFP committee didn’t get any bailouts, they actually have to work this time. The Cheaters Up North are in, Washington, Texas. I think UGA gets bounced and spot 4 is a dead heat between AL and Free Shoes University. The pundits think the SEC is somehow entitled to a spot, so FSU/AL gets really dicey. Hard to keep out an undefeated P5 conference champ. It’s really tight. Trent King

Yah I don't put much into early season rankings....when it's all said and done the Final Rankings mean the most.

Pretty sure they will put Florida State in. I'm just saying I wouldn't.

I think they will put the 3 undefeateds in. It's the least controversial way of doing things, and that's what they tend to do.

And then it comes down to 4 teams with 1 loss (Georgia, Alabama, Texas & Ohio State) for the 4th spot.

Ohio State is out because they beat no top teams, Georgia should be out because they too beat no top teams and lost the conference championship to Alabama, so you can't put them in over them. That leaves Alabama and Texas. Texas beat Alabama so they should get the 4th spot.

Not necesarily the best top 4 teams but I think that's how they will do it.

Michigan
Washington
Florida State
Texas (Alabama could get in over Texas if they make the SEC is the best conference argument, but is it?)

[Gorditadogg]

Michigan over Washington.
FSU over Georgia.
FSU over Michigan in dream game.

I really don’t have any regular interest in either team but would be funny to see Florida State beat Georgia

[D. Bergin]

LOL, I barely care about college football, but I hope this ends all talk of FSU being robbed by the rankings committee.

Is DeSantis still suing the NCAA? LOL!!!

If anybody has a grievance it’s Georgia. It was like the 1985 Bears playing the 1972 Saskatchewan Roughriders. The Washington Generals playing the Space Jam team. Not even the same planet.

So what they were undefeated! Opposition matters.

[Peter_Spaeth]

Yup. As I said at the time, Georgia had a legitimate case, having lost one game by one point. What an awful game LOL.

[jayshum]

Things might have been different if the game actually meant something since FSU wouldn't have been playing as described below.

"Georgia scored on nine of 12 drives and gained 673 total yards against the short-handed Seminoles, who were without more than two dozen players because of opt-outs and transfers, including five starters in their defensive front seven, their top two running backs and top three receivers."
