Nice points on Bama basically doing jack sh*t to have any affect directly, but being favored by the CFP crew and screwing Miami.

Gave you a bump for posting the article. But it's flawed. It shows how twisted soundbites can write a narrative and opinion that you favor. But it is wrong. You have to read or listen to what the committee said in entirety.

The reason Bama jumped Miami and should bump smu if we win is absolutely the right call. Anyway else is biased.

Bama is in because they're 3-1 against ranked teams and their other wins are against teams with winning records. The reason they jumped Miami is that Miami is 0-1 against ranked teams. Same would hold for smu. Lose to Clemson and they're 0-2 against ranked teams.

Yes, Bama has warts and flaws with 3 losses. But, like us, the acc has no quality wins. If we win, we would be 1-2 against ranked competition and have 3 losses. We should be the only acc team in, and we should be the 12th seed.

Don't let Dabo and Jim Phillip blow smoke about the pitiful acc.

I totally disagree and I think as other people have noted the following teams are in the playoffs but not playing a 13th game

Notre Dame
Ohio State
Indiana
Alabama

If any of these teams were to play a conference championship and lose, they could all be out of the playoffs.
The only fair thing is if Clemson or UNLV wins then the CFP bottom teams get booted

Bull crap! Quality wins!
The system is flawed because the polls are biased!
They favor SEC. Rank them all at the beginning of the year then all your conference wins are against ranked teams..
don’t rank a conference in the polls and no matter who you beat they say no win against ranked teams.
Bull! I watched the games and every win is a quality win!
Bama lost 3 times!!!
