Quality matchups per year. It’s not their fault, but the committee can’t just let all the top G5 teams into the playoff. The fact is they aren’t as challenged as the P5 schools. The system is broken, but in the current system I have no problem with the committee making these G5 schools be perfect.

Is Herbstreit all right??? Glad he was able to get that off his chest… I’m sure

They didn’t need to elevate them Utah/Pitt at 14/15 still would have gotten in

Yes. Exactly. You're highlighting my point. Under the current system...

Fair, just didn’t know if your issue was with the committee or the whole system

Noytre Dame had a better record (11-1). Pitt and Utah were conference champs.

Not just realizing it. It's just being highlighted this year more starkly.

I can only think of 2 teams G5 that had strong arguments to be in the CFP

I would think he is including the BCS years. Before the playoffs small schools

BCS era there were only 2 teams selected, not 4. G5 teams rarely approach top 2

And luckily they had a good ND on the schedule this year.

Did someone remind him of the red-headed stepchild that is BYU?

That seem uncharacteristic of the guy. Random meltdown.

Yeah, this feels really weird.

Sheesh that was salty. Uncharacteristic of him. Chill Herbstreit. It’s a cartel.

Only in because they happened to play ND and ND ended up not losing again

Yup if ND's loss was to anyone else they would have the #4 spot

Bingo. Was a perfect storm this year that FORCED the committee to let them in

I'm not sure why all the g5s don't do it.

You have cracked the nut. Now we have the formula. 😉

12/7/21 8:00pm

This guy perfectly lays out what it takes to get into the CFP. P5 vs G5

It is rigged. That’s how it’s built. Even after BYU gets in the B12 it will still be rigged.

12/7/21 6:29pm

Have they accepted a 12 game playoff

germ1

12/7/21 6:48pm

Yes but still debating over how to determine the auto bids.

12/7/21 6:52pm

I thought after the last meeting someone said an 8 team playoff was still in

It's out in the open and everyone knows it, but the CFP still pays lips service

Isn’t that kind of the point?

I’m not exactly sure what you mean here

PHXSUNS31

12/7/21 7:18pm

Right but it’s the team not the schedule. UCF got jobbed. Cinci didn’t luckily. Emphasis on luckily.

12/7/21 7:09pm

I don’t remember the details around UCF, did they beat anyone good those years?

The problem is that perfection doesn't guarantee jack squat. Cincinnati had to go undefeated for 2 years straight, get

I like Kirk but he goes down a lot of notches for me if this is how he feels

So he is basically saying that 90% of the time the system sucks and gets it
