Someone has to eventually win it.
Who you want or will accept?
Would prefer Penn State (only cause of my family) or I guess Georgia. Clemson would be fine but they're not gonna win. Tennessee I could probably live with. tOSU would kinda be annoying due to Gee Scott/Egbuka/JTT. Sark with a natty? No thanks. But tOSU and Texas are better than other options for winning.
The rest of the schools I don't want to pass UW's recent accomplishments at this level so fuck 'em.

Gunner and Georgia
No fucks given here.
Boise even though they have no shot. Would be especially great to see Jeanty win since most guys in his situation would have just transferred to one of the name brand SEC or Big 10 teams in it and made them absolutely unbeatable. Of the schools I could actually see winning it it's more of a who do I dislike the least so Georgia or Texas. Texas could be fun because we could claim we beat a better version of them the year before.
Its tough.
I Usually root for conference teams if they are not a buncha asshats. That rules out the four B1G entrants. I guess if Cignetti was killed in a car crash I could accept Indiana winning it all. My disdain for PSU is directly tied to Franklin so if he suffered a similar fate, it would not be the end of the world if PSU won everything.
An even bigger bunch of fucktards is any SEC team. I guess the saving grace here is 'Bama and the flacid Boner was rightfully left out. But still.
ND. Their fans are even worse (and WAY more delusional) than tOSU or SEC fans.
So, in conclusion, I am rooting for the four teams that can not possibly win it all. Clemson, Boise, SMU and ASU, In reverse order.
At least half of those will survive to the second round. Yee Haw!
Yes, it sucks when your team was nowhere close to making the expanded playoffs but this year is more interesting than ANY 4 team playoff that did not include UW.
Someone has to win it?
The TV networks already won and the fans lost
Can't wait for 5 minutes of ads after an XP, then 5 more minutes of ads after the KO
The dvr is your friend
Clumpson and old school Dabo who should be the first one to shame other coaches publicly for tampering
I’ll take anyone in the field sans one.
Yes. Boise has surprised before. Maybe more than once. But they are just smaller and less athletic than any of the six or so actual contenders. They can not possibly win three in a row against this field just as they could not win two in a row versus any previous cfb playoff field. Not a hypothetical. Just a law of physics. Kinda of like, ya know, gravity.
If you were saying "how could you support UGA or Tejas?", I agree. Smart is as fucking assbackwards (sec blinded cocksucker) as they come and Sark gotta sark. Leopard won't change its spots. It just won't. Although, I could like the horns if coached by a halfway respectable coach (you know, like Petrino or someone).
Don't care as long as the Ducks on this board are miserable.
Peterman was asking more from the "why would you want those people to win?" perspective, not from a likelihood perspective. I feel about Boise the way I feel about Gonzaga. Join a real conference and play a real schedule, or win it all with the one you play, or fuck right the fuck off. This business of "we beat this good team this one time" or "we almost beat this other team on the road this one time" is for the fucking birds.
Also, this love for another good running back has really crawled up my ass and is starting to rot. If that fucker had won the Heisman and Hunter was interviewed and said what he said, the collective meltdown here and elsewhere would cause the Pacific Plate to shift. I'm amazed at how full of feelings people are these days.
Bama
Why did I root for USA hockey v the soviets?
Why would I have rooted for UW crew v Hitler?
Miracles all but definitely the less evil of this field (save SMU and ASU).
I am kind of with you on the Gonzaga comp but Boise's coaches have been much less undeservedly fellated by America than that ugly fucker few. (And, some have very undeservedly throated). He is (worse than) the russians or germans in my comp. While Boise is probably closer to the Ukrainians. I know, tittt.
BONEM
I don't even remember who's playing besides one game. If it's on and I'm not working and tired of watching DVDs and Youtube, I might watch plays here and there. Feel the excitement.
Call me crazy but Boy Wonder might win a game or two
As a former resident of the Peach State, I feel as though I should support UGA.
I have a lot of connections through friends in the Army to certain schools and Rocky Top and Pedo St are amongst them.
As a recovering Catholic, there’s still a slight allegiance to GRUNDLE’s Irish.
BONEM for sure. Still hate Sark. Never liked tOSU other than when they beat Oregon in the natty (see BONEM).
Don’t give a shit about IU (sorry Stalin) or SMU and Boise’s a try hard little school.
So I guess in any order, I’m rooting for #myDawgs, GRUNDLE’s Irish, Rocky Top and Pedo St.
