Yup.

I kept telling him that the committee views Oregon as clearly better, but he refuses to listen

This is going to set up nicely:

Michigan vs UW/UO ROSE BOWL
UGA vs FSU SUGAR BOWL

They ttu question? Where we beat them 57-7 with backups in for more than a quarter and Oregon had to miracle themselves a one score escape?

Lol - Tech was at home with their starting QB. Team isn’t the same. Commissioner said they looked at 13 weeks of play not one data point.

All year? Like where Oregon still hasn’t crept into the top 50 in Sagarin sos while Texas is 2 in the nation? That all season?

If you watch the two teams play - all the experts have it right. Not a middle aged balding guy on a message board

SOS is a differentiator for comparable teams.

These teams aren't comparable

I really hope we don't somehow luck into backing in this year. This team really does not deserve it.

Alls it would take is Alabama, Texas, and FSU to lose and Oregon/Washington to be a blowout.

Not likely but not impossible ether.

Balding?. I’m all the way bald, dunce. I just humiliated you.
 
Wait until they have 12 teams vying for the playoffs....talk about some favoritism then!

It will last about 3 seasons then we will have to go back to the BCS system again.

Hope you just watched the commissioner of the committee explain why Oregon is ranked higher. Bottom line he said, when watching the teams, Oregon is just better. That’s why they are a 9.5 point favorite on Friday.

This is less about Oregon and more about the committee. The inconsistency is what is bullshit. So, basically for Oregon whose resume is clearly not better than Bama or Texas, it's the eye test. Yet, the eye test and the resume right now say UGA is the best team in the land, yet if we lose our first game against No. 8 Bama we are out because you can't let a 13-0 team not get in even though they don't have the eye test or the resume and lost their QB. And another one-loss team, Oregon, will get in over UGA because eye test? Their inconsistency is what is maddening.

I am not advocating that we get in even if we lose, but you tell me that we aren't one of the best 4 teams this year. So, as I have stated many times, I can't wait for the 12-team CFP where it is decided on the field. And fuck those of you in The Alliance ... because of you we don't have the 12-team CFP this year.

Great. I look forward to multiple threads about how next week will be the week that the committee decides to completely change their model

Don't be surprised if they do. That's what they do. That said, I think you are in if you win. There is too much Oregon hype for that not to happen. You also are very lucky that Texas beat Bama because it pushes 1 loss Bama and a 1 loss UGA below Texas due to the H2H. A lot of things have broken your way such that you are in with a win, IMO.

Conference Championship winners will get a boost next week. The committee has been consistent about that.

That's because they have to go with the most deserving, not the best. And being a one-loss champion means you are more deserving over a better one-loss team. That doesn't make sense, even if that is their mandate.

FWIW ... our fate is in our hands ... we win we are in. Have I told you how much I can't wait until we can decide this shit on the field?

This year, more than any other, I wish we had an expanded playoff. It's not far fetched for us to end up with:

13-0 Michigan - Big Ten Champion
13-0 Florida State - ACC Champion
12-1 Oregon - PAC 12 Champion
12-1 Texas - Big 12 Champion
12-1 Alabama - SEC Champion
11-1 Ohio State - Only loss was a 6 point loss to Michigan
12-1 Washington - Only hypothetical loss is to Oregon in the PACCG in a rematch
12-1 Georgia - Only hypothetical loss is to Alabama in the SECCG

Speaking of 12 teams...

I see LSU didn't make the top 12 and would not make the playoffs were they 12 teams going into the playoffs. We lost 3 games this season and are out the top 12.

Yet, all of the teams we lost to are in the top 12. (Fla. St., Bama & Ole Miss).

3 loss teams need not apply.
