The "team can improve" argument is another way of saying that game didn't count. So you are saying that a team can improve, but you would not acknowledge them for the improvement. I can acknowledge their improvement without discounting the regular season. Good job guys, go and get 'em next year.

So are you saying that the results on the field don't mean anything, at least when an ESS EEE CEE team is involved? Should the tOSU loss to Michigan not count too? How about Penn State? They are a *much* better team than what they showed against tOSU and Michigan! Put them in the playoffs! It cracks me up that the same people who bitch that expanding the playoffs devalues the regular season have *zero* problem devaluing the regular season when it fits their narrative. ESS EEE CEE! ESS EEE CEE! ESS EEE CEE!

CFF is in a league of his own when it comes to promoting the G5 teams.

CFF is in a league of his own when it comes to promoting the G5 teams. I do no such thing. I promote integrity of the game. There is no official designation of P5 and G5. All are FBS and should abide by the same rules and have the same opportunity at a championship as any other FBS team.

Lets not lump everyone together here. Ditto You understand, don't you, that you are literally doing that in this thread, and have done so before this season.

ESS EEE CEE! ESS EEE CEE! Lets not lump everyone together here. You're right. Sorry. I forgot how vehemently you were against UGA getting a second shot at Bama in the playoffs after losing to them by 17 in the CCG in 2021. My bad. I also forgot how loudly you protested UGA being able to play Auburn again after being smacked around by them a few weeks earlier in 2017.

My bad. I also forgot how loudly you protested UGA being able to play Auburn again after being smacked around by them a few weeks earlier in 2017. I guess we should start with the latter. Two different divisions. Uh, Utah and USC; Utah and Oregon; Ohio State and Wisconsin; Big XII every year until this year; playing the same team again when in two divisions is nothing unusual. I think you probably can fine tons of my posts saying it should be conference champs only, as long as we are not having conferences that are at a different level...and yes, there is a different level. I was pretty vehement that LSU should have played for title over Georgia in 07 for that very reason. I echoed same about not having to replay Bama in 2011 in the playoff. I was less vocal when Bama made it in 2017 because those were the rules set up by the playoff committee and it cost Georgia. I don't like the rules, but I don't control that. Ditto for this year.

I'm actually in a great mood. We just had a fantastic Friday night/Saturday Christmas Marketing in Cologne.

FBS is the level, your opinion, while it may be valid this year, is not guaranteed to stay the same.
