At the end of the day those of us who thought BSU getting a bye was ridiculous

Methusaleh22

12:25am

I'm fine with them in the CFP. Their seeding was unfair

Bob Vance

12:31am

I don’t think a G5 conference champ should earn a spot. Autobids only to P4

CougFan4EverEver

12:32am

I'm good with a token 12 seed. Everyone should have a path. Giving them a bye

Methusaleh22

12:35am

I’m actually ok with the bye, but they should’ve been re-seeded. They should’ve played Oregon

KingDave

12:49am

I like that idea but creates a lot of uncertainty for fans who want to travel.

garyfan

12:59am

It also makes bracket contests hard to do.

Methusaleh22

1:05am

Well, we can’t have that.

KingDave

1:08am

It’s exactly what the NFL does, no? Besides, with a playoff, there’s uncertainty for fan travel with every game

KingDave

1:08am

But they don't do neutral site games.

Methusaleh22

1:09am

I bet in the next ten years the FBS won’t either

KingDave

1:30am

Boise St. and ASU have known for almost a month where their next game is.

garyfan

1:11am

Not really. In the current NFL playoff format, only the top seed gets a bye, in

Japan Coug

5:02am

If we were in their shoes, we'd have said the opposite. Why not P4 conf champs?

cajuncoug

4:21am

Were they worse than Clemson? If not, they were going to get a bye.

Indy Coug

12:37am

I think he’s saying give the byes to the top 4 teams, not the top 4 conf champs.

garyfan

12:41am

Hate it. The Big XII champ would almost never get a bye.

gwalker

12:54am

That’s more a commentary on the Big 12 than on the system.

Anyone that doesn’t realize there’s bias in the system is asleep. Maybe that

You aren’t saying there was bias this year???

They would when they deserved it.

Bull. The best the Big XII champ would ever do is the 5 spot. Same for ACC

Here’s something people need to come to terms with.

How many times did Texas win the Big XII? Even over the last ten years? You

You can’t deny that Texas is now an elite program that would have been elite in

I don’t even know what your point is.

garyfan

2:00am

Really? How did OU and Texas do over the last 10 years? How did OU do THIS year?

Since 2015, OU won the Big 12 six times. And while UT has been down (for them)

wildwilderness

Yeah, I’m even ignoring some of the very weak adds the Big 12 has done.

My argument is neither deserved a bye. But Clemson was a better team.

Chester Copperpot

12/31/24 11:58pm

You mean he was sloppy. 5 TOs is somewhat forgivable when you got 7 assists

Noo! 7 assists to 5 turnovers is awful. Also, he shot poorly.
