Playoff Question...


Oct 12, 2020, 12:32 PM

Which venue does the 1st place team on play at on Jan. 1st? Nola or Pasadena?

Wherever the committee sends them.

The committee decides, supposedly taking into consideration geographic advantages to not disadvantage the #1 team. But really they decide based on match ups and $$$.

If we stay #1, we probably won’t get to see the Rose Bowl, just like before. Facing Bama or Georgia in the Sugar Bowl is obviously an advantage to the SEC team, but clearly that didn’t sway their decision a few years ago.

Agree with responses, but would sign up for Rose Bowl game vs Oregon. Or Sugar Bowl vs Ohio St or Penn St. As you state, SEC rules N’awlins.

For this reason, I actually hope both Clemson and Alabama go undefeated so we can finally smack someone around in the Rose Bowl. If bama wins out, they'd clearly be given the #1 ranking.

I'm pretty sure Rose Bowl is only major bowl Clemson hasn't won yet, and have never played there.

Depends on the #1... they try to regionalize the semi- final

games. #1 ACC or SEC teams would most likely play in Nola.

Unless something has changed this year. The first place team gets to pick. Generally its the closest geographical venue so they can get fans to come, but if its like in the opponents back yard, they can take the other site.
