I got lucky, I'll be in Vegas for the Flyers v VGK game so I should be able to catch it at the book assuming my flight ain't delayed. If it was a later game, I'd have to watch the end on my phone from the hockey game, lol.
So you're saying UGA with two losses should not be ranked second but Texas, with two losses to UGA, should have been ranked second?
No offense but are you fucking retarded?
As I said in multiple posts, conference games counting is retarded.
People like to talk strength of schedule until it's a game not on the schedule then.
No, it isn't. We've had conference championship games for over 30 years.
Giving them a top 4 seed and bye is retarded. But they played, UGA won. Both at Texas and neutral site. Looking strictly at record is simple minded nonsense. And arguing for Texas to be ranked ahead of UGA is unbelievably moronic.
UGA has played in zero playoff games this season but they have 4 wins over teams that made this year's playoff
and now many years have we had a 12 team playoff where you're at a bigger advantage skipping that championship game than you are playing in it?
We don't know the answer to that yet, and I bet it'll change by team and by season. Clemson benefited from playing in a conference championship game this year. And everyone agrees they need to change the seeding format. But Texas has two losses. They played the actual game, this isn't a hypothetical. Texas is a two loss team.
It's an easy fix, ditch the stupid conference championships.
We're having a hypothetical conversation.
@Matrix asked who I'd rank ahead. In this hypothetical world where my opinion matters, the playoffs would be seeded before the championship games are played, not after, or the championship games would determine who from the conference makes it in. But that would obviously turn into a complete shit show.
Well you either have them and they count (like this year and all previous) or you do away with conference championshipsIt's an easy fix, ditch the stupid conference championships.
We're having a hypothetical conversation.
If they were elimination games you could have them and they'd really count. But then you'd have teams ranked 3rd in a conference getting in while 2 goes home.
Yeah but realistically think about what you're saying. The two best teams in the SEC more times (way more times) than not deserve to be in the playoff.
Just do away with them so we can stop with the mental gymnastics.
That's why I said it wouldn't work. I'm saying if you want to keep doing them they need to have value beyond a meaningless trophy. The conference championship should probably just be awarded to whoever ends up with the best in conference record.
Well they do have value. The SEC champion. Put in any other conference title there as well. The winner got a bye and the loser dropped but bc tex had only lost to Georgia (twice lol) they literally dropped them to just outside the top 4.
I get what you're saying but the way you say it makes very little sense. Just say you hate championship games and move on 👍

you probably should. ND needs Leonard to turn into Montana and I don’t see that happening. I’m praying I’m wrong but he hasn’t shown that ability to. Which we’ve discussed already.
Shut up!
