I just noticed that UCLA went up 7 spots in the CFP rankings for beating Washington.

    The pac 12 is getting SEC bumps for beating each other. So much for all the whiny bitches here with their conspiracy theories.

    Oregon jumped an unbeaten team by beating conference opponents. They have no good non conference win now that Sparty is exposed. You can't say the B1G sucks so Ohio State doesn't belong and claim a home win over Michigan State as a good win.

    If UW should beat Arizona their loss looks worse than anyone else's

    It's a fluid situation

    The committee is playing politics with the rankings.

    Oregon is where they are at so the Pac 12 championshit game actually means something.

    If Oregon slid into 3 where everyone thought they should be ... then it isn't news.

    Until you can show me a better non conference win by Alabama or TCU, Michigan State is a strong non conference win. There isn't any reason for Alabama or TCU to be ahead of them. Alabama can change that with games against Miss State and Auburn. Ohio State belongs as much as Baylor and TCU.

    Then Ohio State should be ahead of Oregon. Winning at Michigan State is better. Bama and TCU have better conference wins. The pac 12 sucks. Winning at LSU is better than winning at Utah. Bama lost on the road to a top 5 team at the time. Oregon lost at home to a shitty team.

    Bama plays Mississippi state and Auburn while Oregon plays Colorado and the Beavs

    They jump Oregon rather easily

    The Oregon hate is coming out kind of strong. They are one of the four best teams. They have plungered everyone since the loss to Arizona. The Pac 12 is better than the Big 12 and the Big 10. If Alabama beats Miss State and Auburn, they belong ahead of Oregon. Right now, Alabama's only really impressive win is LSU, and it's debatable how good LSU even is. Their passing game is worse than UW's. It will all play out. If Oregon wins out, they will get in and deservedly so. Same with Alabama.

    If they take injuries into account for Oregon losing an OL, then they should take into account Ohio State losing a Heisman front-runner QB.

    Imagine if Oregon played only 2 games with Mariota this year. That's what Ohio State is going through this season.

    good point

    the script says Oregon controls their destiny and kills themselves in the foot in a very public fashion.

    The difference is, Oregon got their injured player back and improved because of it. Ohio St. lost their guy during the off season, and he won't be back until next season. Lets also not forget he had about a month of practice before the season started and he also had three prior non-conference games. It's not like he was thrown to the wolves.

    Taking account injuries is used to justify a loss that otherwise wouldn't happen now that the team is at full strength. Ohio State has the same QB that lost to Virginia Tech. You can't use that argument for Ohio St. when the same quarterback would be playing in the playoffs. Sorry but not the same thing.

    Not really. This is the same Ohio St. quarterback that played in week 1, also against Virginia Tech, and will also play if they make the Playoffs. If Miller had gotten hurt, and has now come back, then you would have a point. But as it stands, it's the same team just the QB has progressed. I would say however, they do look good on the eye test. But right now it's not enough

    Way to Quook on.

    But you're wrong on 2 counts.

    So by your rationale, Oregon losing an O lineman was somehow more of a factor than tOSU losing their Heisman QB candidate. Whew!!!

    You're also assuming that with your Olineman back, it's an automatic victory against a team that has torched your asses 2 years in a row.

    There is no evidence of that since they plungered you last year at their house and beat you soundly despite the score, in your house this year.

    The fact that Oregon is ranked #2 above at least 3 teams that would plunger them on a neutral field shows that this new playoff selection process will be a shit show in the end.

    An 8 team playoff will only add to the mayhem.

    By the looks of the selection process now, you'd have hot 3 loss teams with tough schedules jump 1 loss teams.

    Get a 24-team playoff and run it like D1-AA football does... Top 8 get a bye... Play home games until you hit the major bowls...

    That tourney would blow away march madness.

    I'm beginning to miss the two team playoff. So much fucking dreck in CFB this year.

    I miss having a bunch of great games on 1/1, having it be over, and the next day find out who the NC champion is. Really, who gives a fuck? It was more fun for me the old way. This is just a fucking mess that is the worst of all worlds.

    Oh gee, people argued about it, big fucking deal. It was fun as hell.
    Not to mention they are depriving us declaring retroactive national championships 50 years after the last person who gave a fuck died.

    And sell commemorative jerseys.

    What a great day. Ron Cookie "Fucking" Jackson and when it was announced USC beat UCLA the place went nuts for the rest of the game. Fuck. I miss husky football and college football for that matter. It will never be the same. If that happened today after we found out about USC/Ucla they would put some fucking stupid shit with a fat asian chick on the screen and kill the mood.
    The late Wendell Broyles, the stadium announcer, would fuck with us too in a fun way. He would know that Husky fans were desperate to hear that USC beat UCLA so we could go to the Rose Bowl. So he'd do this...

    "THE SCORE COMING OUT OF LOS ANGELES...... WITH 3:52 LEFT TO PLAY...... UCLA 17......... ................... USC 20..." (Husky Stadium crowd goes crazy)

    But miller wouldn't play in the playoff. The OSU team against vt is the same roster. They also lost by 2 fucking touchdowns, while Oregon lost by one score to a top 20 team. This argument isn't about oregon being#2 its about should oregon be in the top 4 over OSU. And as of right now saying otherwise makes you a complete fucktard.

    I'm not saying fisher is more important than miller. What I'm saying is that Oregon is better now with him. Miller isn't coming back this year. If miller was coming back then you would have an argument about Ohio st. What if miller left early last year? Would Barrett still get a pass? That's the argument being raised as him being a frosh.

    They were speculating on ESPN the other day that Ohio State's new quarterback might beat out Braxton Miller next season.
