There is no bias in the Playoff rankings....


Nov 6, 2019, 12:38 PM

Baylor is undefeated, 2 wins over top 25 teams (Kansas St, OK St)

Oklahoma has lost a game, no victories over top 25 teams.

Baylor beat Kansas State at Kansas St.

Oklahoma lost to Kansas St at Kansas St.

Oklahoma is ranked higher than Baylor.


There is no bias???????

Do you think Baylor can beat Okie ? The "bias" is, and always has been, the "eye test" piece of this mess. As usual, it will sort itself out, with the exception of probably one tough call of the 4

There is complete bias when you measure some teams by performance, others by “eye test”, and others by tradition. This is complete and utter BS. They can justify any rankings they choose, just use a different measuring stick for each team to justify your bias.

The irony in the committee and voters saying that you can't use the transitive property to do rankings, while literally the entire concept of strength of schedule is comparing how many teams the teams you have beaten have beaten.

Also it's clear that Minnesota and Baylor were given lower rankings than they deserve because the committee thinks they will lose soon.

Traditional Powers Have Peking Order


Nov 6, 2019, 12:57 PM

Perception is reality!

The perception is that the Big 10 and SEC are ahead of the class so the two top teams in each must be better than the rest.

Problem is - when a middle of the pack Pitt/ACC squad goes to happy valley and loses a close game late it's not held against Penn State.

Or Auburn having to get lucky to beat Oregon but for a very unlikely mishandling of a simple handoff at the 6 yard line when they were about to put the nail in the coffin. Auburn then gets beaten by LSU and they somehow have this great resume. Not.

We'll see how they justify things. Minnesota and Baylor could really foul up this little love fest.

Oklahoma is clearly better than Baylor, and if you can’t see that you don’t need to be commenting on college football. The goal is to get the BEST four teams in the playoff.

Bullish!t. Results matter in the playoff, but not before? That’s insane.

Should have to start at Week One watching and comparing teams! No AP or Coaches pole to fall back on.
By the time they get together in November to "watch" glorified highlights of games. It's weeks later and it's easily forgotten how pitiful OU and UGA's losses were On LIVE tv.
