Indiana got to cap a historic season by actually playing in the playoff and a bunch of SEC teams got to claim victory in a hypothetical matchup that will never be played which is their favorite thing to do anyway.

People should not be moaning about Indiana not being as good as they thought they were.

Wholeheartedly disagree. There are lots of 10-2 teams more deserving than 11-1

Any team that went 11-1 in a power conference would have been in this year.

That will end. P2 conferences have lots of duddy teams.

Another argument for 24-28 teams like the other divisions do for a reason

The Ohio State game was a preview of what a top 10 team would do to Indiana

NIU was a preview of what a 70s-90s team would do to ND

The committee will overlook a bad loss in early September

They went 11-1. If we didn’t lose to Kansas we would have been in too.

BYU also had a win over SMU

No we wouldn’t have.

BYU would absolutely have taken SMUs spot. Committee generally recognized H2H

NYC and Japan

Nope. They clearly have no respect for the Big12

RockyBalboa

Wallow in your pity all you want. BYU was ranked 1 spot below SMU after Kansas

NYC and Japan

Has nothing to do with pity

Right!? CFB fans have been brainwashed. In the NBA, when the 1 seed sweeps the 8

That’s only because the NBA is completely controlled by the refs

The self-commissioned Championship banner a la Utah and UCF will never happen

Well, their favorite thing is actually to win 75% of the Natty's, often in

Mississippi hasn't won a championship in 60 years. South Carolina has never

Five separate SEC teams have won the Natty in the past 20 years

Goliath

well maybe SEC needs to game the system a little better: cut down to 7

You could add Oklahoma with a 2000 championship - 7 in 25 years, but win % goes

The dumping on Indiana is lame, jealous, sad-sack sour grapes

Byu deserved to be there more than Indiana

Idacoug

no they didn't. objective composite computer rankings had Indiana at 7 and

I don’t know about that

Pretorian

No way. Plus BYU was trending down.

It’s only because they’re exactly who we thought they were

Pretorian

Recurring thought during game: IU not horrific or "exposed," but ND just better

Not every 11-1 is equal. 8 home games, pathetic OOC, weak SOS.

88Coug

8:13am

This is objective evidence of what we already knew the B1G is a 1-3

Pretorian

8:32am

Well let’s schedule our 2020 schedule again and we would’ve got in too this year

Magneto

8:32am

I’m not sure an 11-1 Sun Belt team in a 12 team CFP deserves a spot most years

Yeah, we can't whine about SEC bias but also whine when a little guy gets in and
