    No ...... they should suffer a similar fate to that of the Ottoman Empire...... extinction.
    Mission to CFB's National Championship accomplished. But the shine on the NC Trophy is embarrassingly wearing off. It's M B-Ball ..... or hockey or volley ball or name your college sport favorite time ...... until next year.

                • You may lose interest when it's unprincipled in ways you don't like, vis-a-vis ways you are willing to tolerate, but you have plenty of interest in this unprincipled system.

                    • bama will annihilate Oklahoma

                      ohiostate won 3 games by a combined 7 points--Maryland/Nebraska/pennstate and got trounced by a 6-6 purdue team

                      Georgia is the only one stay within a score of bam--lead bama almost the entire game and oh by the way bama won every other game by 20 or more--Clemson might stay with them--Georgia proved they can

                      as a fan Georgia was the only one of the teamks discussed where we would have still had a decent game going into the 3rd quarter

                      ohio state and Oklahoma would/will be 20 plus down going into the 4th

                      • Its one of the reasons why the NFL is far superior. The schedules are predetermined, you have to travel and you know the rules how to get to the playoffs. In the NFL the teams that have success in the playoffs are not based on some game they lost in October but how well they are playing at the end of the season. The politicking Gary Danielson was doing for a 2 loss Georgia team was embarassing.

                        Its been my opinion for a long time that the Big Ten doesn't give a crap about the playoffs. They don't particularly throw their weight around or gripe about anything.

                          I've never really been in that boat, but I am now for the reasons you stated. I still love watching Ohio State play -- well, not this year, but most years -- and certainly want them to win the B10. But, beyond that it's law of the jungle.

                          Its been my opinion for a long time that the Big Ten doesn't give a crap about the playoffs. They don't particularly throw their weight around or gripe about anything.
                          I think this is absolutely true. They do nothing to further B10 playoff chances and actually do things to hinder chances. Ever. UFM won't say anything -- this year or last. Delaney won't say anything -- this year or last. The only person who has said anything is Franklin. I can't imagine the SEC going quietly into the night if they were left out. I mean...LMMFAO.

                          So, it is what it is. I've seen the 2015 OSU team that finished 11-1 ranked behind a 2-loss P12 conference champ; the 2017 2-loss conference champ OSU team ranked behind an 11-1 Alabama team and a 2018 1-loss conference champ OSU team ranked behind a 2-loss SEC team that won nothing. The only year the B10 received any sort of benefit of the doubt was in 2014. In 2016, OSU was picked over PSU, but one B10 team was going for sure.

                          • Yeah, win the conference and hopefully your bowl, screw the rest. I was more bullish on OSU than anybody, but this playoff system is still beauty contest BS.

                              • I've always been on point that NFL is the superior product, warts and all. Beauty contest BS shenanigans does mean college is unlike other sports, that doesn't make it for the good.
