![]() If you want to bitch about the playoff system, save your breath. Instead bitch at your AD for scheduling the likes of Maine, Maryland and Georgia Tech (cancelled) as your OOC games. While the power 5 recognized the trend and began to schedule more quality OOC opponents to strengthen the resumes of their teams...the AD for UCF didn't. One game does not a season make.

They came out to prove a point and yeah, they're good. Not natty champs for cruising through 12 games and putting a solid performance together in a game they had a month to prepare for though. EDIT: If the system doesn't change, we should all take a note from Bama and UCF and start playing cupcakes again to inflate records. |

People want to downplay Alabama's schedule but they forget all of the "Hype" for the Alabama vs., Florida State game. It was billed as the big game to open the season. FSU was a top 5 team. That, along with the rest of their SEC Schedule was plenty tough enough.

![]() I'm fine with UCF claiming a Natty. Teams have claimed a natty for less in the past. Bama claims '73, b/c of the Coaches Poll (that was used before the Sugar Bowl against an undefeated Notre Dame team.) Notre Dame beat Bama in the Sugar Bowl, but Bama still claims that year's natty. So does Notre Dame.

![]() So before their win over Auburn, they were ranked 84th. The win rocketed them up to 17th, but the 4 who did rate the CFP all have top 5 OOC SOSs......

![]() I have an idea that will solve this...
Keep the same 4 team playoff. However, if after the end of the year there remains an undefeated team in a Div-1 conference, make them play the 4th ranked seed before the playoff. In this wild card game, the winner moves forward. This lets the 4th ranked team get beat up with the extra wild card game and it would not be active every year, only if someone like UCF went undefeated. |

![]() They should give credit to winning a conference championship and being the best non-Power Five team, but no automatic bid.
If you put So Cal and UCF in an 8 team playoff, you would have to leave out one of the B1G wild cards schools, Wisky or Penn State. Both teams were better, IMO, than So Cal or UCF. I thought that before the B1G annihilated the opposition in the bowl games. And one of those victims was So Cal. |

![]() Congrats to UCF on a great season.
You would have gotten clobbered if you were in the Top 4. Enjoy it for what it is....13-0. No one can take it away from you. |
