What's this?

They always end w/ got it right, even if teams are blown out, NO you

got ratings right and you don't have anyone to question you with equal time. Unlike many, I think a very dangerous precedent has been set by Cincinnati showing you can have a schedule ranked about 100 and still make it in.

I remember in 99 when Virginia Tech was the Cinderella, we beat teams like Miami, Clemson, a Virginia coached Welsh team, a good Syracuse team, a good BC team. Lots of good teams. Cincinnati beat ND who easily could/should have lost to Virginia Tech and Florida State in a very down year. If they go to rankings and I think they should unless they break off, then the strength of schedule needs to a big part of it. No cup cake schedules to get in, undefeated or not!

Highest Ranked Conference Champions, no games added, no Conference repeat -- Stech 12/09/2021 12:40AM

So, you are not interested in the best team playing to see who is the best? ** -- 133193Hokie 12/13/2021 08:26AM

I want the best, but I don't want opinions to decide who the best are, they -- Stech 12/13/2021 12:54PM

So, you would take Pitt over UGA this year just beacuse they are the least -- 133193Hokie 12/14/2021 3:52PM

Yes, I would rather have Pitt in the (eight team) playoff than UGa -- Truthahn 12/27/2021 12:18PM

No Pitt would not be ranked high enough, as for UGA, don’t get blown out!!! ** -- Stech 12/14/2021 7:15PM

I would submit that anyone who doesn't win their conference isn't the best. -- HOO86 12/13/2021 3:17PM

I have no problem with that, but I don’t think the SEC would go for it, 10 -- Stech 12/13/2021 7:55PM

I agree with you, and that puts us back where we started. -- HOO86 12/13/2021 10:15PM

Exactly. Get rid of committee. Use conf champs. Keep reg season relevant. ** -- Hokester 12/09/2021 9:43PM

That would stop P5 conferences raiding other P5s -- EDGEMAN 12/09/2021 09:34AM

No matter what they do, must be max of 2 from 1 conference. -- HOO86 12/09/2021 11:30AM

You need more games to do it that way, Highest Ranked Conf Champs, stay @ 4 -- Stech 12/09/2021 11:51AM

4 is what works best. -- HOO86 12/09/2021 12:21PM

Exactly and prevents one conference to take over hmmm -- Mercury 12/09/2021 11:00AM

I think the SEC saw themselves putting 3-5 teams into the playoff... -- EDGEMAN 12/09/2021 11:26AM

ESPN prefers 5 from the SEC and Notre Dame every year and 20+ in the SEC. -- Stech 12/09/2021 11:48AM

Boy that is refreshing -- Mercury 12/09/2021 09:17AM
