Michigan will beat Bama by 14.
And...non-calla on Bama.
The missed "face mask penalty" on Bama against Edwards.
The so-called "horse-collar" that was actually one of the best tackles in the game...from either side. 15 yarder that extended a Bama drive. AGAIN!
Seems like these pivotal Referee miscues are highlighted everytime Bama is involved in a "big game", where they are over-matched underdogs. There is a cancer in SEC Officiating.
Division 1 CFB....What is it now?...A multi-billion dollar industry controlled by....whom exactly. More money is transferred on these College Games, than you could possibly imagine...on betting alone.
Why would we think FBS Football is on the up-and-up? Lol...they managed to keep an antiquated Bowl System in place, in lieu of a Playoff...long past it's shelf life. Mostly because of dark money and the discreet control of a few.
IMO....CFB is being manipulated like a Chess board by an unidentified power base...[ESPN/Disney maybe]. The Teams, Players, Coaches and Fans are the game pieces being manipulated to squeeze as much cash as possible out of Universities, their Students and Fanbases.
I couldn't care less about the so-called College Football Playoff, anymore.
As far as I'm concerned...the National Champion will be the Winner of the Orange Bowl. Either, a 1-loss UGA or an Undefeated FSU.
UGA's 1-loss came in a postseason Championship game against the SEC's 2nd best. Bama and Texas lost games during the regular season. The Dawgs beat 2 of the CFP's top 12 Teams [Ole Miss & Mizzou]. Both teams...UGA & FSU...have a leg to stand on and both Coaches have credibility...so, I hope they make the claim.
The winner of the Orange Bowl game would have a legitimate claim to a share of the Natty. They should start marketing the game like that. It would carry a helluva lot more weight than the Natty claimed by an undefeated UCF, several years back, when they were ignored by the Committee. Lol
Texas & Bama...or UGA & FSU? Which 2 teams would you want to play?. Lol....yeah...FSU and Texas. But, they would have never put 2 SEC teams in the CFP...Again..
Appeasement was the order of the day, going into next year's Super-Conferences and 12 Team CFP....and remarkably...the ACC got left out, when the music stopped. They SHOULD be pissed, IMO.
Why does "Bama & Texas" get the benefit of the doubt? If either team lost their starting QB...they would NOT be the same team. As has been proven. There's nothing projecting or guaranteeing that Milroe and Ewer won't sustain an injury that prevents em from playing in the CFP. If that were to happen, they can't go back and make FSU whole for snubbing em over a QB injury.
Yet, the Committee seems to be able to predict future play. They essentially put FSU's entire team success on the shoulders of one player. The ironic thing, is that...of all the teams in the CFP and FSU...UGA is the only one, with an adequate if not great, backup quarterback. The impact of losing Beck would not be as critical to UGA as would Bama losing Milroe or Texas losing Ewer....or, Washington losing their Heisman Candidate, Michael Penix.
Funny, the "Committee" projected what FSU would look like without it's QB...yet, it DID NOT project what UGA would look like with a healthy WR and LB Room, at the end of December. I mean...if you're gonna project...then, do it for...and against....everybody...equally.
Apparently, the only impact losing their QB, had on FSU...was in the perception of CFP Committee members. Just goes to show...they pay more attention to "The Hype" than they do the game. You should have to be able to pass a test created by a Committee of Coaches...before you can serve on the CFPC.
And, don't get me started on crooked officiating. I've seen enough. Too much to discuss.
They keep saying the best 4 teams the best 4 teams , not the most improved teams. You can't leave someone out that has an undefeated record to a one loss team and there were two of them so Texas was ranked 3 does that mean they are better than Alabama? I am a Dawg through and through win or lose. If it was up to me and I was Florida State I would protest the playoffs and not go. I know there are millions of dollars at stake but the principle of the thing. Florida States doesn't hinge on one player sure they were sharper with their regular Quarterback but they still won the last two games with the Rodemaker. The whole rest of the team was still there , the defense was still there , the kicking team was still there, the receivers were still there, I think they made a big mistake not putting Florida Sate in the Final 4.
FSU had a whole month to fix their QB situation. An undefeated P5 Team, deserves the benefit of the doubt. They EARNED it.
If it was Clemson Vice FSU...??? Lol...what do you think the Committee would've done. They're full of shiit. They were pressured...I have no doubt. It's practically impossible to have any faith in Committees and Politicians, anymore.
There are no checks and balances. No recourse. Nobody to hold accountable...and, nobody to hold em accountable if there were. Hell...I hope Kirby starts cheating like hell. He's gonna have to, to get a fair shake, as long as ESPN, OSU, Saban and Harbaugh are around. Lol
Dawgs losing to aladambama is bad enough, but all this selection committee BS is a real load of crap!
