Week 14 CCG Games Discussion Thread

[Captain Buckeye]

Alabama is going to beat TCUN.

With the two corners Alabama has and TCUN being without their best OL? TCUN is going to be running into a loaded box.

As long as Alabama doesn’t turn the ball over I don’t think it’ll be all that close.

Lol, the SEC suck-fest continues. Just can't have those fucking assholes not be in it. They are definitely not the most deserving and there SHOULD be serious doubts that they're even one of the 4 best teams.

Fuck the CFP. Time to get rid of it.

With the 12 team playoff starting next year, what is the point of keeping conference championship games?

Allow me to rephrase @Jake :
With the 12-team playoff starting next year, what is the point of keeping conference championship games for the teams and players involved?

Good point. Gonna be weird if a team rests players in the CCG. Hopefully, four teams getting a first round bye will be a deterrent.

Dropping a game and falling out of the top four won't be appealing. And if you're not in the top four, can you afford to risk losing?

Yep.

Going to have the same principles trickle down into end of year rivalry games.

Conference Champs get a 1st round bye. Other than that, money.

Everything about CFB needs to be overhauled. FSU got the shaft.

You can’t bolt a playoff on top a bunch of unequal leagues, with unequal scheduling, and expect it to work well.

It’s a Frankenstein concoction right now but it throws off a bunch of money so the people who benefit from that money don’t really care how fair anything is.

I understand you both.
I was just trying to figure out if it would possible to make the playoffs with one less game. Guess not.

If the expanded playoffs existed this year both Ohio State and Ped State would've made it. In fact, they'd have played each other.

But it looks like you're not the only one asking the question.

They are going to make play in games.

How else do you still make money off the weekend slot but not have your two best teams beat the shit out of each other?

You make a play in weekend type thing.

This would be poetic af.
