Oregon is getting punished for playing a tough week 1 non-conference game on a "neutral site" 2000 miles away. While Alabama's non-conference schedule was shit and almost always has been.

If a one loss Bama stays ahead of them and gets in a lesson has been learned: Don't bother scheduling tough non-con games, it isn't worth it.

And definitely avoid "neutral" games.

Go A&M. Then have a two loss Georgia skull fuck LSU in the SECCCG.

Which would make the final rankings:
Gawja
Bammer
LSU
A&M

All the people whining about aTm being ranked above Indiana: seriously, who would you bet on in a neutral site game?

Bloomington is a “neutral site.” They’ve been stuck in neutral sine 1916.

If the committee wanted to make a real statement. Punish the SEC into going to a 9 game conference schedule like everyone else. Of course the whole conference looks a little bit better overall with that 4th OOC game, which you know they aren’t using to schedule anyone but the West Carolina and Samford of the world. Of course they’d never do that though.

They’d play Shriners Crippled Children’s Hospital if they could.

They would move better than Tua right now.

Seems like Final Four will be B1G winner, ACC winner, SEC winner and Pac12 winner. Sign me up.

I guess it’s time for the weekly laugh at the FPI. ESPNs magical fantasy math world where

Texas A&M is a top 15 team

5-5 Missouri, who has lost 4 in a row. 2 of which were to Vanderbilt and Kentucky is #27

4-6 Miss State is #30

South Carolina who just dropped their 7th game is #36

In fact every SEC team besides Vandy Arkansas and Ole Miss ranks in the top 40. (And ole miss is creeping at 47)

ND is better than Auburn and has one less loss. I have no idea why they are ranked behind them.

 

[muffler dragon]

ND is better than Auburn

Based on?
Don't get me wrong, they both suck, but I'm don't see how you differentiate.

I trust Book more than Nix to win a big game

I also think Kelly is a better coach than Malzahn.

Gotta get bama as high a ranked opponent as they can, so if bama pulls out a win they can pop them up to 4th.
