Curious how the CFP would handle this

I prefer the current method, only for the crying by OD.

Don’t look now but Oregon could finish #1 in the Colley rankings. Thought the playoffs was supposed to stop this issue

Cool, what time is the parade?
 
Lmao @ OD JFC dude

"the title should be decided on the field! unless we lose! then some arbitrary subjective computer system should decide it!"

LOL, the Colley rankings? You mean the one that looks like it was programmed for the original NES?

The 2nd round hypothetically looks a lot better this year if you just seeded the top 4 into BYEs and then the others accordingly

5. Notre Dame vs 12. Clemson
6. Ohio State vs 11. Arizona State
7. Tennessee vs 10. SMU
8. Indiana vs 9. Boise State.

2nd round

1. Oregon vs Indiana/Boise (The #1 seed gets by far the easiest game here)
2. Georgia vs 7 Tennessee
3. Texas vs 6. Ohio State
4. Penn State vs 5. Notre Dame.

You used seeds, not ranks. Fix.

Looks like Oregon would need Georgia over Ohio state to achieve the #1 in Colley

Where are you seeing the updated Colley? Because their site hasn't been updated for the playoffs.

1. Take away top 4 conference champions getting an automatic bye (Oregon still gets #1)
This solves some of the issues but not all of them. They can possibly re-seed in the 2nd round but how? They base the reseeding off one round instead of the entire season? I guess but also seems flawed.

Ohio St after to losing to scUM, they were at their low point and Penn St, who they beat, got to the CCG. So the seeding wasn’t flawed from that aspect, it was more so the Zona St and Boise seeds. A lot of people were also saying Tennessee didn’t look that good (really due to Ohio St) so what does reseeding really do? Again it’s based off one game.
We will eventually see a 16 team bracket and there will be no byes. That will also solve the excuses, “long time not playing was a disadvantage” argument.

The bottomline Oregon got some extremely lucky breaks in Autzen and barely won by 1 point. Ohio St showed the teams really weren’t that close. It didn’t matter, Oregon would have shown their true colors eventually, whether it was Ohio St or another team. Oregon got a month to prepare for this team and they got outplayed and out coached.

Even when we do all this reseeding, no byes automatic bye to conf champions and eventually no byes at all…there will be teams that luck out with opponents. It just seemed very flawed this year.

The most damning part of this statement is that Lanning got outcoached by Day.
