They thoroughly dominated the #4 team. it’s sure as heck is not the #4 team after getting demolished So it all took care of itself as usual so hopefully 1 or 2 games will be entertaining Quote
row_33 Posted December 8, 2019 Posted December 8, 2019 ———- to refresh our memories last years games went 30-3 45-34 44-16 none were as close as the scores indicated Quote
Buffalo Barbarian Posted December 8, 2019 Posted December 8, 2019 So wish Oregon was in this, had a real shot till they lost 2 games, Tired of watching Oklahoma in the playoffs. glad Alabama is out. really need to expand the playoffs. Quote

Have to keep reminding myself this is just his first year starting. 27 unanswered points against the #8 team. Wisconsin is really good. I wonder if Rose Bowl will take them or Penn St. Edited December 8, 2019 by YoloinOhio Quote
YoloinOhio Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 Buckeyes really did come out of nowhere. A true Cinderella ? Quote

row_33 Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 Ohio State was always a contender, now we get to see just how good Clemson is against them. Quote

Why do they need to expand the playoffs? They got the three teams in that deserve to play for the NC. Oklahoma is the best of the rest I guess but I will be shocked if LSU doesn't beat them by at least 10. Oregon/Utah/Alabama/Notre dame/Georgia - They shouldn't of loss that second game if they wanted to get in. Quote

I too think that 4 teams is enough, unless they cancel the conference championship games. I don't think its fair to ask the kids to play more games and risk their health/future. Quote

By your perspective the NFL should just take the top three teams plus one and call it good. Every sport has a real playoff to determine the champion, not this dog and pony show.thre Dont worry full playoffs will happen some day and then we will all enjoy a great tournament and wonder why this wasnt done sooner.

row_33 Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 last year with the "top four" we had 2 massacres and an 11 point win, can't even be bothered with the details, more teams will give us even more massacres hoping for those 88--0 wins of Ohio State over Northern Illinois, and LSU wins 110-0 over SMU Quote

I feel like the current conference championship games = basically the 1st rd of the playoffs. First you need to win your division, then the conference. Those that do that move on. The tough part is there are 5 conferences and 4 spots. But that’s what makes every week so critical in CFB unlike the NFL Edited December 9, 2019 by YoloinOhio Quote

It gives no incentive to teams with two losses or more to keep trying. Quote

They aren’t there to relieve your boredom and lack of useful imagination by playing more and more pointless games What do you do when I suggest we don’t need horrible blowouts disguised as more playoffs.... do you just sit there for five seconds and go DUH and the hurt in your brain goes away and you carry on without a thought?
