yep...make the schedules and play the games. I don't feel like there is any good argument why a two-loss team should be in the playoff regardless of their schedules. And I believe that for PSU too. In fact, have stated it several times. If PSU loses one of their next two games, I've got no problem with us being left out. Same is true of tOSU. If they lose to either UM or Indy, I've got no problem with time sitting out the playoff.

In a 12 team playoff you must have 2 loss teams. This logic doesn't make sense. 11-2 Ohio State with 2 losses to #1 Oregon including by 1 on the should and will be the 5 seed

lol. No effort or time spent on that. Teaching fiscal responsibility starts at the home. Sorry that yours is/are overspending, but that doesn't mean others are.

it is all relative. I recall a TV star sending her personal jet to Phoenix to prove to her friends that the best Chile was from a place there. Or, Jeff Bezos tearing down a bridge so his yacht can go downstream (he paid for a new one).

You are correct, fiscal responsibility is taught at home. Sadley, many don't get it until THEY are the one working for the money. My daughter didn't "get" the problems with doordash until she started to work and realized DD was costing her about half of her working day. (she rather get a mani pedi).

Understatement of the year (bolded). Pretty sure (no I'm positive) that there were rumblings like this early last year.

And everybody finished 100 pts behind.

As @SpikingWhamos posted, let's start timestamping these posts. How do we do this? Possibly POTY nominations????

And enlighten me on how Gable takes a down a peg? Two less points at NCAAs?????

When my kids got their first real paycheck they were shocked how much in taxes were taken out - I said get used to it and remember it when you vote not that it ever really changes no matter who is in power - bureaucracy lives to sustain itself.

Gable coming back knocks you guys down a peg, thank god. and hopefully you'll go with Facundo at 157. Davis could pull a Davis again. Bartlett is taking 3rd. I'll cross my fingers that Lilledahl sucks on the mat.

I have never seen them just read a few things they have said and put them in the same category as moat of these “experts”. When I want a true expert opinion I wait for Lando to post :)

If you're playing a b1g or sec schedule, yours absolutely right - a bad loss is way more relevant than your best wins especially when those wins are against other top Conference teams with bad losses.... and the highest ranked team has beat absolutely nobody from a ranking standpoint.

It’s a silly discussion. If the good teams in a given league just beat the mediocre teams then you would have a few 1 or no loss teams like the Big 10 did this year. It also produces a gap to the mediocre teams which the SEC says makes them “nobody”

Instead, the vaunted SEC’s best failed to beat some teams they should. That gives the mediocre teams an extra win or two which the SEC says makes them better. Comical.

Instead, a look at Georgia in its losses and a couple of wins…they were hideous to watch. That’s weird because Smart wanted to use Eye Test for a team that wasn’t exactly pretty.

It’s this ACTUAL discussion that demands league champions are automatically included. It’s a must. There is only one way to prove eye test and talking heads right or wrong: play a game. Each league has their own method to chose a champion and send them to a championship tournament. After that, you’ll just have to live with the silly discussion.
