  • They have ADs on the basketball committee now.

    Shut the fuck up.

    When you have 68 teams, it makes you look like a fuck head if you complain that you were #69. However, when you are only selecting 4 teams, bias needs to be more controlled.
    There's going to be a large enough cross section to eliminate most bias.
    What about Oregon/Stanford last year, and replace Haden with Oregon's AD (wouldn't be Stanford's, he could give two shits about sports)
    Oregon's AD would be asked to leave the room when Oregon was discussed, just like they do in basketball.

    By the way, Stanford was the EASY choice between those two teams last year.

    Scoreboard.
    I disagree. Stanford had 2 losses, Oregon only had the one. I think in that scenario you'd have to go with Oregon.

    So you think beating Tennessee Tech is better than losing at Notre Dame?

    Thanks for visiting the bored, Mr. Woodward.

    Who finished the year ranked higher? Also Oregon's only lost was to a top 10 team. Stanford had they just lost to ND I would have said deserved it but they also lost to an unranked 7-6 team.

    So in your world should Oregon been to the Rose Bowl in 2000 over UW?

    Stanford won the two way tie between them and Oregon for the Pac-12 North title because they beat Oregon head to head in Eugene.

    That trumps the fucktarded loss Stanford had at UW.

    Washington won the three way tiebreaker in 2000, that's why they went to the Rose Bowl. Note that in the current system, UW would have still won the tiebreaker.

    I tend to pick conference champions over runners-up. I like it when regular season games between teams matter and I hate rewarding teams for shit OOC scheduling.

    He's the definition of a mixed bag. You reach in the bag, and you either get a chocolate or a turd.

    He's a Sark poster. Sometimes you get game day champions, sometimes you get 2012 apple cup.

  • So in 1984 you think USC > UW?

    He'll Bama won the natty in 2011 without winning a conference title.

    I want the 4 best teams and Oregon last year was one of the 4 best.

    A 4 team playoff is only slightly less rigged than the current BCS system. 16 team playoff or GTFO. It's not gonna interfere with classwork...these guys aint come to play school

    My four team playoff field last year would have been this:

    1. ND
    2. Bama
    3. Stanford
    4. Florida

    11-1 SEC division runnerup > 11-1 Pac-12 division runnerup
