It will be argued until the end of days, certain questions in life. Stonehenge. The Mayans. Martians. And what really is the right amount of teams for college football’s post season? Since the advent of the CFB Playoff, the latest incarnation in an attempt to either fix this vexing question or simply just squeeze more […]

What the CFP Selection Committee Taught Us: Week 11

0 comments by

Last week was actually the most bland set of rankings the College Football Playoff selection committee gave us in its short history. The committee spent its first two years trying to drive home the point that every team is re-evaluated every week, so we often saw teams shift when they picked up quality wins or […]

Week 11 CFP Implications: Chaos Leaves Troubling Scenarios

0 comments by

After a chaotic week of college football, including losses by half of the College Football Playoff selection committee’s Top 10, we’re kind of in the same place we started.

0 comments by on 11/14/2016

Wow, what a weekend! With very few matchups between top 25 teams, many expected week 11 to be a relatively uneventful one.

0 comments by on 11/13/2016

So, that happened. “That” being a Saturday where we say teams ranked 2, 3, and 4 go down in the same evening, including two at home. Clemson was stunned on a last-second field goal by Pitt in Death Valley. Michigan got the same ending treatment in Iowa City. And Washington was mostly overwhelmed by Southern […]

Is it time for a non-conference, non-division winning playoff team?

0 comments by

I’ll fully admit, when the CFB Playoff concept was rolled out, the thought of allowing non-conference champs into the thing seemed abhorrent. After all, and recite it with me if you know the words, “how can you be the best team in the can’t even win your conference.” Three years into it, we may be […]
