teams in the tourney were non P5 teams. You're dreaming if you don't realize that there is room for at least one team in there.

No- they can’t be because the rules fair or not say they aren’t champions

Except the rules do say they are.

What rules?

Only the winner of the CFP is NC. If you’re not one of the four you can’t be the one. That rule.

SouthernBlueBlood

4/22/18 8:18pm

Those aren't NCAA rules.

Left Shark Coug

4/22/18 11:17pm

They are the rules that are recognized as the way we pick a NC

SouthernBlueBlood

4/23/18 4:34am

Not the ones I recognize.

CFP operates outside the NCAA and it’s accepted

Everyman

5/4/18 6:53am

It’s also rejected

Sooooo...do you acknowledge Utah as a two time champ in football too?

That’s not relevant. Not here.

Uhhhh... why not?

Because utes suck and have no business here.

PGA tour can be won by someone who takes 2nd at every event.

Thinking of ncaa bball, baseball, hockey, NBA, NFL, MLB, MLB etc l..

ToasterChive

4/22/18 1:01pm

..and taking 2nd isn't beating everyone you play.

Great comparison in two similar sports...

Here’s an NFL possibility

Y2k

4/22/18 2:02pm

Wouldn’t that be the opposite of the example in the OP. Beat no one and win?

zerome4sooners

4/22/18 2:42pm

Unless you’re the team that went 14-2 and got left out

Y2k

4/22/18 11:03pm

No one thinks the current system isn’t flawed. But it’s what they agreed to...

mobomanjoe

4/22/18 12:59pm

Agreed. More like given 1 option and asked if you want to participate or shut

Y2k

4/22/18 1:01pm

I’m not saying it is a fair system.

mobomanjoe

4/22/18 1:10pm

I doubt the g5 schools agreed to anything.

johnnycarson

4/22/18 1:17pm

They voted for it so that they could get the one NY6 game and $1M/school

Nat Gas Man

4/22/18 1:45pm

And the G5 commissioners form part of the 11-member

"That's what they agreed to" You think they had a choice? They agreed in the

NCAA football is in desperate need of a 12-16 team playoff

Jericho

4/22/18 1:13pm

Eight teams, five conference champs and three wildcards

RC Vikings

4/22/18 1:32pm

That won't get any G5 teams in. I agree you need at least 12 teams.

mwcoug

4/22/18 1:38pm

That’s not true, UCF would have been in with eight teams in this year

RC Vikings

4/22/18 1:44pm

No they wouldn't. They were #12 in the final CFP.

molodyets

4/22/18 1:49pm

This is correct. They were #12 with all 5 P5 champs ahead of them at the end

mwcoug

4/22/18 1:52pm

Based off the current system but if they expand to eight teams and a G5 is

RC Vikings

4/22/18 2:00pm

What makes you think that? I see no reason why they allow a lower ranked G5

mwcoug

4/22/18 2:06pm

The basketball system, people love the idea of an underdog beating one of the

They chose 3 non P6 at-large teams in the NCAA this year.

RC Vikings

4/22/18 5:49pm

Because they are guaranteed. Most of them wouldn't make it otherwise.

molodyets

4/22/18 6:05pm

I understand that, with eight teams they would need to rewrite how teams make

RC Vikings

4/22/18 6:45pm

So not based off the current system. You want a new system

molodyets

4/22/18 7:12pm

Any new system would be a total split between P5 and G5

Nat Gas Man

4/22/18 7:18pm

With eight teams you would have to rewrite it.

RC Vikings

4/22/18 8:11pm

There is no reason why there shouldn’t be a 16 team playoff. No reason.

Sandstone Cougar

4/22/18 3:09pm

Well there is one. The powers that be don’t want one

Nat Gas Man

4/22/18 3:41pm

Agreed: 16 teams. Have a 10 game regular season. Take the conference champions

BleedCougarBlue2

5/3/18 10:30pm

The thing I like about this, is that it helps push the narrative that we need an expanded playoff.

BYU got lucky in 1984 and became champion based on the agreed upon

Byu fans dismissing ucf is particularly ironic.

johnnycarson

4/22/18 1:35pm

I never dismissed their claims of being snubbed. I dismiss their NC claims.

mobomanjoe

4/22/18 1:52pm

Why do you even bother to act like you're a BYU fan at this point?

GigantorCat

4/22/18 11:30pm

No one would be talking about UCF right now if they didn't claim a championship.

Ute in DC

4/22/18 2:58pm

And, ultimately, nobody will ever talk about them as 2017 national champions.
