Only time Nutria has chanted "SEC SEC SEC" was the trial of Martha Stewart.

The chick who got busted for insider trading. She's like a home ec teacher, more or less.

Just think of here as the Yankee Paula Deen.

OH HELL YES. Christmas came early – it seems an eight-team playoff model is actually in the works.



I've long been an eight-team skepticist, but I'm extremely down with this.

My lone complaint with just expanding the current playoff system to eight teams is that I wanted conference championships to matter, and eight at-large bids wouldn't really do it. But this sure will, while still allowing some wiggle room for clearly deserving teams.

Now, let's talk about playing that opening round on campus...

If higher ranked team gets home... prepare to be 5th every year.
I want a guaranteed QF every year, and SF on rotation.

Brent is a writer of bad fiction. Would wait to see that from a reputable journalists, not a doos.

8 is at least 4 too many.

But we will go to 8 teams and someday we will have the equivalent of a Florida Marlins baseball or Villanova basketball National Champ.

Or 2017/18 Bama.

NY6:

#1 LSU, #4 Oklahoma in the Peach Bowl
#2 Ohio State, #3 Clemson in the Fiesta Bowl
#6 Oregon, #8 Wisconsin in the Rose Bowl
#5 Georgia, #7 Baylor in the Sugar Bowl
#9 Florida, #24 Virginia in the Orange Bowl
#17 Memphis, #10 Penn State in the Cotton Bowl

Did they actively avoid B1G - SEC matchups?

 

[lvbuckeye]

FWIW - I'd much rather play Wisconsin than Baylor in the bowl game.

Not if you want to win, you don't.

 

[lvbuckeye]

This season more than any in a while is an argument NOT to expand the playoff.

We don't need to make sure that we got the 4th best or 8th best team in the playoff. Only that we got the best. And there is no reasonable argument that the best is not one of OSU, LSU or Clemson.

But we will go to 8 teams and someday we will have the equivalent of a Florida Marlins baseball or Villanova basketball National Champ.

Somebody ought to start a thread on the football playoff.

The defending national champions, and owners of a 28 game win streak, would NOT have been left out of the BCS CG if we still had that format.

The ones on the outside looking in would be the Buckeyes.

Can’t agree more. Clemson would be an auotbid as defending champs and undefeated and LSU because of undefeated and SEC!SEC!SEC!

Looks that way doesn't it?

 

[Nutriaitch]

well, we don’t have any common tie-ins amongst the NY6 bowls.
Rose had to put B1G vs Pac
Sugar has to do SEC vs BigXII
Cotton had to take the Group of 5 team
Orange had to take the ACC team.


i do wish we could see the top teams from our conferences play each other more often.
