2024 College Football Playoffs Discussion (12 Team Format)

[Bestbuck36]

I dont care who is in or not. We're about to go on a fucking stampede through college football starting this Saturday vs those cheating cocksuckers up north!!

I dont even believe we'll have another particularly close game this season. About to go OFF

 

[cincibuck]

Dont forget Georgia tech could still take out UGA too

Theoretically.

Here is hoping Clemson beats SC and knocks Indiana out as an at-large.

Although if Miami loses to Syracuse, Clemson goes into ACC championship and Miami should fall below Indiana.

IU is a total fraud but so is Cryami.

they may be a fraud, but they’re our fraud. I hope they kick the shit out of Clemson.

I’ll say though if Bama does get in they will be a quick out, the threat factor is just not high anymore without Saban.

Every week it looks like being #5 is better than being #1. They need to relook seeding.

They may be a fraud, but they are our fraud. (As opposed to their frauds.)

Edit: @cincibuck is fucking brilliant.

Can I get that in bronze on a mahogany plaque?

If Indiana gets left out as a 1 loss team, with their only loss coming from the #2 team in the country, then the Big Ten should quit the whole system.

I don‘t know why we want Indiana out and another SEC or ACC team in.

I'm rooting for the seeds to work out to put Indiana at Penn State in Round 1. And Penn State tries a white-out thing. And Indiana goes in and wins.
Then they beat some SEC team - I don't care which.
Then they can lose to whoever - I don't care who.
Then they follow that up with a 3-9 2025.

Fuck that. Let the SEC come play in the cold. An IU team whose only loss is to the #2 team in the country should absolutely get to host a game.

Bloomington would be wild as hell if a SEC school had to play there.

On Sunday I posted that Texas was in even if they lose to aTm. Not so fast, myself.

If all of this happens:

Oregon and tOSU win and play in the B1G CCG. Winner is the #1 seed, conference runner-up is the #5 seed In the bracket.

Penn State (Md), Indiana (Purdue), ND (USC), and Tennessee (Vandy) all win and don’t play a CCG.

Clemson beats USCe, Miami beats Syracuse and SMU beats Cal. Miami/SMU play a close CCG.

aTm bests UGA in the CCG. 5th Conference Champion is either from B1G or Tulane, that won‘t affect Texas.

01 - B1G winner
02 - SMU/Miami winner or aTm
03 - SMU/Miami winner or aTm
04 - Boise St
05 - B1G runner-up
06 - ND or Penn St
07 - ND or Penn St
08 - Tennessee
09 - Georgia, with 3rd loss in CCG
10 - Indiana, with 1 loss to a Top-2 team
11 - Clemson or Texas in a 2-loss beauty contest, Texas with 0 wins over ranked teams, and Clemson just beat #15 USCe
12 - by rule, Big XII Champ whoever or AAC Champ Tulane

If those things happen, Texas could get left out and the ACC and SEC would each get 3 teams.

Not to sound like I'm arguing, because I agree. But it's not going to happen. Indiana is going to drop out of the top 8. The south will stay in the south.

And all the rounds but the first are in the sunbelt.

Or reseed after each round.
