GAME CFP R1: 11 SMU @ 6 PSU • 11c • TNT/MAX

Well, the Clemson/Texas game HAS to be closer... right?

Bama, Ole Miss, South Carolina -- any of them would have been WAAAAAAY better teams than IU and SMU.

It is embarrassing for the CFP committee to look at these teams and think they belong, after beating zero ranked teams all year and losing the only games they played against ranked teams.

Don’t lose to Vandy and Okie

Dear God please

 

[Collegefbfan]

Nice pass and catch.

You had multiple of your best players out in a game OSU desperately wanted to win

The two DT who are supposed to be 1st round picks are sitting out this game too. Doesn't matter how desperate you want to win if the other team is vastly more talented. See -- Indiana/ND and SMU/PSU.

Tbh I can understand an Oregon fan embracing this bullshit argument, but less so not that y'all are in the B1G. Im less understanding of fans of blue blood programs doing it. A fundamental fact of this sport is everything isn't equal, never has been and probably never will be. Alabama played a top 16 schedule, SMU played a top 65 schedule. Alabama beat programs ranked ahead of everybody except the #1 team in the country. SMU beat....BYU? C'MON! Who TF are y'all kidding?

SMU lost to BYU

Stop being a SEC slappy

If you can't see it now -- I can't help you. The B1G was so mediocre this year, Indiana and Illinois were two of the better teams. That is pathetic.

Illinois strength of schedule was higher than ole miss…

Bama lost to 2 teams that are Nebraska caliber.

Someone tell this asshole coach to try to score

Ole Miss also lost to a 4-8 team

 

[podsox]

Punt because?

 

[Collegefbfan]

Well, that's a wrap. Oh yeah, and you can't spell MISCUES without S-M-U.

 

[CoalTrain]

Ugly

BUT... who had Indiana and SMU going to the playoff back on September 1?

 

[Deep Creek]

Did Penn State beat SMU or did SMU beat SMU?

 

[podsox]

Did Penn State beat SMU or did SMU beat SMU?

The SMU qb was clearly the mvp of the gm

 

[Fredmccallyrtr]

The playoff committee deserved this more than SMU.

Bama lost to 2 teams that are Nebraska caliber.

Like the Nebraska that almost beat Ohio?

Bama also beat Georgia. If Michigan were in the CFP, I'd have the same stance as you. I wouldn't want any extra SEC teams in the CFP. The fact they had less teams than the B1G is laughable though. Our conference was a joke after the top 2 or 3 teams.

 

[Deep Creek]

Take Penn State even if you are giving the points. The Ponies will probably have a first half similar to the Clemson game but won't be able to come close to recovering like they did in that one.

The SMU qb was clearly the mvp of the gm

Jenning’s performance isn’t really a surprise. He had very similar games against Duke, Clemson and one other game. I just can’t remember which one. He has proven he has the ability to crap down both legs.
