What I was trying to understand is what should be considered an “objective standard”?

Ranking Tulane higher last week is the biggest joke.

Yukon

Dec 1, 5:17am

No, ranking 3-loss Alabama coming off of a 24-3 loss to OU #13 was the biggest.

Oh man that one was annoying. If Miami is any higher than 15 this week that

I know, and that is utter nonsense

Yeah. . . BYU is not playing great football right now. . . CFP rankings are fine

Both are true. CFP is a joke.

The “eye test” fails a lot of teams, though.

The eye test has failed Iowa State for 5 games in a row now

100% agree

Anyone who watches college football knows that there are few dominant teams.

dYrtbYkerYder

And byu beat one of those teams SMU

With that logic anybody watching Georgia in OT would say they don’t look like

We only beat one ranked team and lost to unranked teams, slipping by bad teams

We beat Kansas st when they were ranked high. Miami hasn’t beat any ranked teams

Do you watch all top 15 teams each week to confirm that bias?

BYUHgrad

It’s like in MMA don’t leave it to the judges. Just win

Kolobrdm

Dec 1, 7:34am

Very true. And yet the guys who say this often savage the judges

cajuncoug

Dec 1, 8:46am

That’s nice, but why do we have to accept corrupt judges?

Big 12 was already weaker than Big 10 and SEC by any objective standard

Goliath

Dec 1, 7:41am

I agree, but it seems this is just a new form of the BCS. Same people, same

Here’s an objective standard

CPAcoug87

Lol no

Goliath

Dec 1, 8:32am

So what “objective standard” are you referring to?

CPAcoug87

Dec 1, 8:34am

For starters, you can look at postseason play

Goliath

Dec 1, 8:50am

This will be the new crap narrative. The SEC will have 4x the chances of the

Dec 1, 12:39pm

So wait, your “objective measure” is past postseason success?

CPAcoug87

Dec 1, 2:12pm

"different era?" How did you decide to invent that nonsense?

Goliath

Dec 1, 2:32pm

NIL has changed things in college football.

CPAcoug87

Dec 1, 4:50pm

Another conference finally wins a NC and it's suddenly a "new era"

Goliath

What are Bama and Georgia ranked this year?

CPAcoug87

Dec 1, 5:44pm

What is Texas ranked?

Dec 1, 5:57pm

👍 if you can’t yet see that things are shifting, you will in a few more years

I know y'all are hoping for it desperately

Goliath

Dec 1, 6:44pm

Are you actually here repping Georgia after Friday night?

MarylandFan

Dec 1, 6:47pm

We are not up to standard. It's definitely a down year

Goliath

Dec 1, 6:51pm

Chortle.

Dec 1, 6:54pm

If that's an objective standard, then we're not in the Top 25 and shouldn't be considered

It’s one data point. I didn’t say it’s the gold standard.

Winning playoff games is the key. That was the pac 12's problem. They talked

“Winning playoff games” where we will be out represented 4 to 1.

Get all the B12 teams to schedule the weak teams in those two conferences.

The "eye test" garbage is maddening. Just call it what it is: "Your bias"

Last year a lot of us seemed to think it was OK when Florida St was dropped

krindorr

Dec 1, 8:47am

Bad example. Florida State hadn't beaten anyone. We beat ACC undefeated

Threw and Through

Dec 1, 12:23pm

They beat a 9 win LSU and 8 win Clemson... And more importantly they didn't lose to anyone

The Indiana Hoosiers, OTOH, have proven themselves over the last 5-8 years…

Nope but they play in the.

Nope, but they play in the BIG10, which has history.

BYU isn't getting in. They blew it late season. Plus when has a commitee ever

SoValleyCOUG

Dec 1, 8:58am

That’s what I’m trying to get rid of. There should be no “favoring” at all

Lefty24

But there is. You have biased humans making the decisions.

Agreed. I don’t like it
