UCF- why not national champs?

This. IMO, the one thing the CFB playoffs has spot lighted is that 2-3 teams every year separate themselves from the rest of the programs.

Note, this was the same way pre-CFB playoffs, but the playoffs have made it more visible.

So instead of accepting reality, the current cry is to expand the playoffs.

 

Yet, nobody can give a logical rationale why including even weaker teams will fix the problem.

 

 

people just want more football games on TV, they want games to "mean something" 

 

the sports model for TV is that the more you bring you more $$$ you make and increase the value of everyone with a piece of the pie

 

tons of these economic axioms have fallen to the dust the last decade

doesn't work that way with human nature, review booths do whatever the heck they want to no matter what is patently obvious to disinterested viewers

 

last year.... i think it was a tOSU defensive captain who was clearly shoved and fell back, a full second after the play was over, and hit the helmet of the QB on the ground, not even having a clue what was going on.

 

and then TTUN lost a captain on D another week for something even more pointless.

 

This hit was the textbook example for bye-bye, from Opening Night...

it's interesting how the secondary in college has adapted to the 15-yard max PI call and takes out the receiver gladly on 40 yard routes, saw it more than usual during this bowl run.

 

 

Looks like they are thinking the same:

College ends the play when the man is down no matter if the D caused it, so completing the hit on a defenseless man is far worse in college..

 

But still at most 1/3 the power that a real hit in the NFL delivers.

I keep hearing strength of schedule but is there anything else that you can argue for keeping them out of top 4? SOS is the argument made by people whose main desire is too keep the big five in control. Truly that argument is built by people who simply do not want to actually work to check out all the true contenders.

see what happened when the Notre Dame was undefeated and played Clemson? Now imagine a team that was also undefeated, with far less talent that couldn’t beat LSU. What would the score be in that semifinal?
