Also, if all that matters are conference championships then you might as well cancel all non conference games and any thoughts at marquee nonconference matchups are gone.

I think it would be the opposite. Play the tough games OOC, because if you win or even go 2-1, you have a very real shot at an at-large. Lose them and you still have the chance to win conference. If I’m an OSU, OU, LSU, etc, I schedule a ton of tough OOC games to try and boost resume in case I’m in at large consideration.

That would be aamzing. It's fucking bullshit ND is a lock because they're idle today.

ND not playing this week is definitely an advantage. But the argument is moot when OSU sand Bama have both made it while not making their title game...

Dave Wannstedt is worse in the studio than he was as a coach. He doesn’t make a single coherent point.

And guys throwing two hand chest passes with footballs should automatically be disqualified from receiving any prize

I was trying to decide if that's not the most efficient way to do that.  Maybe an underhand toss instead?  Or turned sideways and basically rapid-fire shovel pass?  Assuming you can be equally accurate however you do it, then it's a function of how many throws you can get off.

ND had duck crepes and sushi at their watch party. Losers. They should be out based on that.

ESPN reveals the top three then breaks away to further debate #4. Never change, guys.

That proves OSU was never in the discussion for the top 4.

That show was fucking brutal. First of all, why do they have 4 hours of talking before the revealing? How long do you need to debate a couple teams? 

Second, JUST REVEAL THE FUCKING TEAMS

Lastly, The committee can suck a dick. Georgia over OSU. 

If I'm OSU, I'm doing everything I can to screw over the NCAA

In the long run, back to back years of OSU 11-1 and not making it might propel a change to 6/8.

Aren't they locked in for like 10 years?

Can't say I'm surprised it was Oklahoma. Higher ranked coming in to this week and OSU didn't do enough yesterday to pass them. Being behind Georgia, on the other hand, I don't get. Two losses and a shit non-conference schedule (when Middle Tennessee State is your marquee out-of-conference opponent, you only deserve ridicule) don't say #5 to me, but SEC! SEC! SEC! nut-hugging never goes out of style, it seems.

The depressing thing to me is that, because of tradition, OSU gets relegated to playing a shit PAC-12 team in the Rose Bowl instead of real competition. Kirby Smart can babble about how Georgia is the team no one wants to face, but I'd rather go against them than Washington, where it's either "meh, you won because you were easily supposed to" or "you lost to THAT?!?!?!" Winding up playing them is like waking up hoping for a steak dinner and getting a McDonald's burger instead.

Bama opens as 14.5 favorites... awesome. Notre Dame should not be in until they join a conference. Georgia over OSU is a joke.

Twitter/FB....everything sports is miserable 

ND isn’t the 3rd best team and its idiotic 12-1 OSU doesn’t have an opportunity to win it all. Dumb and easily fixable.

Im not sure how good Clemson is so watch ND get a few calls and bounces and keep it tight and then Clemson does the same vs Bama.

I’m done. Moving on.

The NCAA doesn't govern the the FBS with respect to how the playoff is handled.  Also isn't called an NCAA championship.
