5 conference champs getting in lol wtf!? After the SEC and big 10 there really shouldn’t be any auto bids for winning the conference. ACC is weak and after that it’s just a joke

Last year that would have put #23 Liberty as a 5 seed, and left #12 Oklahoma out of the playoffs (using last year's rankings and next year's conferences). :dog

It’s ridiculous. 5 fucking conferences? There are 2 conferences and FSU and Clemson (sorry Miami)

I have a problem with two conferences monopolizing, even if FSU is going to be in one of those conferences.
I'm not really mad at the five highest-ranked conference champs getting in, if that is indeed the format. It's fucking stupid that non-conference champs can get in anyway, but the CFI has turned into a worse version of the NFL playoffs.
How about undefeated teams should get in automatically? How about that? Fucking shitstain Cincinnati gets in but FSU can't because ESPN is fucking elephant diarrhea.

Being in the SEC means more money with a much less likely chance to play for a national title. Not that the non power 2 conference champs have a real chance outside of 2 teams. It’s a shit show

Not only are you more likely to play for a title if you're in the SEC, you're more likely to play for a title you didn't earn the right to play for.

The path is so much easier in the ACC big 12 and whatever #5 is. Schedule shit OOC games and go undefeated. The SEC has 6-8 legit contenders every year and will get 3 spots probably

SECt had no more than 4 legit contenders last year, and all 4 would have made the playoffs. LSWho and Florida's Bitch (tiny-c) were NOT contenders. :happyno
LSU could have pretended to be a contender, but they scheduled more than zero shit OOC opponents... and got raped 45-17 (before their last minute garbage TD).
Speaking of shit OOC, here's tiny-c's from last year
Virginia (worst team in the ACC)
Austin Peay (FCS)
UTSA (respectable G5 team... aside from the loss to Army)
UConn (3-9 cupcake)

Obviously not all 6-8 will be worthy after everything shakes out. But if Tennessee was undefeated playing in the mountain west or some shit beating up on shit teams we’d be in. Instead of having 4 losses and playing Iowa in a bowl game

But each year… Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama, LSU, Texas, Oklahoma and right now even Missouri and Ole miss are legit contenders. Auburn could be again. Florida could be again.
That’s 10 teams that could contend for playoff spots. Ole miss and Missouri will drop off. Hopefully Tennessee doesn’t. What other conference could you say that about? The path is much easier outside of the SEC

FSU would have 10 national titles if they didn't have to play M.I.A. and UF every year in the 1980s, 1990s, and 2000s often because FSU could only lose 1 game max (if that) to get a shot at a title. You can't tell me that 1995 and 1997 FSU weren't title-worthy. 1996 was pure BS, too.
The SEC is the only conference where a team has lost 2 games and still claimed a national title this century. Winning that conference is a rigged free ticket to the BCSNCG or CFP, no matter how little the champs actually deserve it (2023). It's definitely easier when you get 2 teams in or even worse with the new 12-team system.

Yes and it’s easier to win the big 12 than be the 3rd best team in the SEC

You're acting like the SEC is so tough when a shitty Alabama team won it last year. New Mexico State, man.
You know who beat FSU in 2022? NC State, Clemson, and Wake Forest, "easy" ACC teams.
You know who didn't beat FSU in 2022 (or 2023)? LSU and UF, "(one) tough SEC team(s)."
Face it: Tennessee just sucks. They lose because they suck. They don't get into the CFI because they suck. They lose to Flarduh 98% of the time because Tennessee sucks. And despite sucking, Tennessee was ranked in the Top 25 for way, way too long last season. UT was even #1 in the CFP for a week a year or two ago. You know why? SEC. So shut the fuck up about how the SEC is so much harder and you can't get into the CFI because of it. It's not. It's bull shit. Quit whining about it.

FSU's fourth string and worse lost to UGA by 60. Every other team in the country would if they were missing that many starters (and backups). What's Tennessee's excuse for losing to Florida by double digits?
