If you’re in the top half of the SEC you have a shot of getting in. In the Big12

Or even ACC, you only have a shot if you are the conference champion (and possibly that next best team can sneak in as well). It’s not equal in that sense.

I hate the CFP already and we haven’t even had a playoff yet. 🤷🏻‍♂️

College football will never have a postseason that gives everyone an equal

Who doesn’t have an equal shot?

Army?

Let’s see what happens if they win @ND on Saturday.

A loss against a top 10 team should bolster their resume. It does others.

For example…

Penn State? Texas?

A loss to ND hasn’t bolstered their resume, but they aren’t penalized as much

Out of 134 teams, their SOS is 121.

You ask for examples of imbalance. I provide. You proceed to dismiss.

MarylandFan

Nov 20, 11:25pm

No. I asked for examples of teams who bolstered their resume with an L.

Ah, so it's a mathematical equation algorithm based ranking system?

Army is in playoff contention if they win their conference

Anyone not in the SEC or B1G

Really? We’re in playoff contention on November 20. How do we not have the same shot as SEC teams?

So now the B12 is as strong as the SEC?

Can you show me a Big 12 or ACC team that was left out that should have been in? Go back and look at the CFB Rankings

RealTaysomHill

5th place in the SEC will make it in most years. 2nd place in the big 12 won’t. that’s not equal.

That just simply isn’t true. The SEC has never had five ranked in the top 12 playoff rankings. And the Big 12 has always

We have a shot, but it’s not equal. If it was equal, BYU would be ranked higher

Crowd Factor

It absolutely is equal access. You’re just looking at it too narrowly. Heres what you’re missing: program momentum

Some animals are more equal than others.

If we can climb back to 10 before the CCG, we have a decent shot at an at large.

Holmoe needs to schedule better OOC games. Stanford and Cal won't cut it.
