2 loss conference chance....just like OSU. If Alabama gets in over either of those 2 it is rigged. Heck it shouldn't even be OSU, I would go with USC.

Your advocating USC? Seriously?
yes, tell me what you don't like and why you think Alabama/OSU has a better body of work. No eye test, objectively only.
I'll make it real simple for you. There is a zero % chance that the committee will put USC in. No further explanation is necessary.
Your taking a strong contrarian viewpoint that will not come to fruition.
You don't believe it's fair to question why USC isn't in the discussion? Like Slick requested, provide an objective reason why USC doesn't deserve the spot over OSU and Bama.
USC lost to ND by 35 and struggled to beat some pretty below average Western Michigan, Texas, Utah, Cal, and UCLA teams.2 loss conference chance....just like OSU. If Alabama gets in over either of those 2 it is rigged. Heck it shouldn't even be OSU, I would go with USC.
Plus, USC only beat 1 team with more than 7 wins.You don't believe it's fair to question why USC isn't in the discussion? Like Slick requested, provide an objective reason why USC doesn't deserve the spot over OSU and Bama.

Because in the TV commercial for the playoffs, they have two people there, one wearing a Bama shirt, the other a tOSU shirt, so they always have to get in.2 loss conference chance....just like OSU.

Yeah, neither OSU or USC deserves in. I agree. USC doesn't have a "better resume." They are clearly 3rd in the discussion.Iowa put 50 on OSU. Alabama beat some 8-4 SEC teams, Mercer, and lost to the only good team on their schedule.
And Vegas you didn't answer my question. To simply say committee won't pick them is a cop put.
The committee's stated goal is to pick the 4 best teams. Being a conference champion or bent from a different region isn't supposed to matter at all.Noi love you USC because everybody is kissing Gama's a$$.
Its a 3rd place team and it belongs in the playoff as much as Ohio state did last year.
Is this a beauty patent decided on who you like best or a football championship ?
They did beat stanford, who as you said beat ND. This point right there is why picking the 4 best teams is a lost cause. Before that game if you compared schedules you would have to take stanford because they beat ND and USC lost by 35. But USC won and most would agree are a better team. Got to go to 8, or go to the b12 and ask them to allow their teams to be folded into the other conferences. Make ND go to ACC and then you can keep your 4 team playoff with the conference champs getting in. Otherwise it needs to be 8.Yeah, neither OSU or USC deserves in. I agree. USC doesn't have a "better resume." They are clearly 3rd in the discussion.
Who did USC beat? A 4 loss team is their only solid win and they got curb stomped by an ND team who got their teeth kicked in by both Miami and Stanford. USC best a bunch of 6-6 teams and barely Western Michigan.
Do you honestly believe that? Think a AD from wisconsin is going to vote for Bama over OSU?The committee's stated goal is to pick the 4 best teams. Being a conference champion or bent from a different region isn't supposed to matter at all.

most understand that Alabama had the inside track, but consideration should have been given to USC.No, its not a fair question because its not going to happen. Zero chance. Why is that so hard for you to understand?
Alabama deserves it more than either.
By far really
-Agreed. At least Wisconsin didnt make it. Well if they did, Id bet OU hangs 60+ on them. They have a resume similar to Central Florida. Most overrated team in college football history with that #3 ranking last week by walking over cupcakes and the weakest division in college football.
-But at least Wisconsin's AD isnt an idiot. He is building a team off hype beating up garbage, and their future non conference opponents, all of them are garbage, while we continue to stockpile ranked teams in our own non conference.
-Why cant Pitt get smart and be like Wisconsin.
-Lets play Kentucky Western, New Mexico, and St. Mary's next year in the non conference. Then beat up a dogshit division. This is a RB's dream team. Power run over garbage and then get selected high in the NFL draft only to fail.
USC lost to ND by 35 and struggled to beat some pretty below average Western Michigan, Texas, Utah, Cal, and UCLA teams. They only beat one team with more than 7 wins.When they compared USC to Ohio State and Alabama on there, USC easily had the best resume of the three. Interesting how they're getting no love.
Also, I find it hilarious how they mention that you have to play the teams on your schedule (when talking about Bama) and can't hold that against them, yet that's the exact same reason why UCF isn't even in the Top 10.
Same with ped state really.
We should play Rice, Rutgers, Vanderbilt every year, go like 10-2 and tout ourselves as amazing
Completely wrong. Again. Herbstreit was saying Alabama deserved to get in before and after the team's were announced.-Im not a Penn State hater. They got ripped off last year beating Ohio State and winning the BIG. I got the most joy ever watching Ohio State getting rammed so hard by Clemson in the finals. I actually do not like this new playoff format, and will hate it more with expansion. This format was supposed to give the little guys like midmajors a chance. All its doing is giving big names like Bama and Ohio State second chances after second chance after second chance. Herbstreit homer changes his position every single season to find a way to get Ohio State in. Eye Test, Conference Champion, Regular season performance, who you beat and who you lost to, it constantly changes every year based off how it benefits his team. I am so happy Ohio State is on the sidelines and finally didnt backdoor its way in again. Sick of that shit.

Yeah, you must have missed the selection show where he said "I can't with good conscience say OSU is one of the 4 best teams" after the B1G Championship game and "Alabama deserves to be in" and he would pick them over OSU but thought the committee would pick OSU for other reasons.-Really? You must have missed the ESPN show when he kept going on and on and on about Ohio State to where the other members almost told him to shut up. Ill try to link it,

if the goal of the playoff was to not line up the four best teams in the land that may have actually made sense..You should have to win your conference at least division to get in the final four.
Alabama has the same resume as Wisconsin.
I’d take USC, OSU, even UCF before Alabama.
Just like when Lou Holtz would always argue for ND.-Shove it up your ass Herbstreit. Blatant, such a blatant homer.
...you and I and everyone on the planet not farting cheese knows that Bama is a better team ..
Just like when Lou Holtz would always argue for ND.
Bright guy, that isn't from today. That isn't even from this year.-22 Minute Mark where Herbstreit states his case blatantly hyping Ohio State, then gets shut down by everyone else. Then how he starts how all this and that why Ohio State and a conference title and everything else hurts Alabama..
-And yes, Bama would rape Ohio State this year.
Bright guy, that isn't from today. That isn't even from this year.
Holy shit that was a dumb post.
Ok, so not today when herbstreit clearly said he would pick Alabama and Ohio State didn't deserve to be in after the B1G Championship game?-That was 5 days ago. Stop posting..
