Well, Utah still had the strictest as alcohol laws in the nation. I'm keeping it simple and cracked open a new handle of Tito's...

True, at that point the committee sent the message that they just take whoever they want and conference titles are meaningless.

He probably will get some good DB talent but how about OL, QB, DL, etc? Colorado was 1-11 this year. The cupboard is bare. Unless he got some assurances from some very rich Colorado boosters that they will help buy him some players, then this could be rough. He probably would have been better off waiting for a better job.

Ironically, I tuned in about 5 minutes before that call. At the time I thought similar to your post. I was like WTF.
ALSO, thanks for these write ups tapeANaspirin2it, enjoy them a lot.
Salute the nation
USC loses so Ohio State should definitely be in the playoff. But, I can see the committee putting in a 2 loss team like Alabama in. I would actually be surprised if they put Ohio State in who is most deserving.

He might be able to recruit the top California and Texas talent from there.

The committee already made their decision last week ranking Ohio State fifth. They aren’t going to allow Alabama to leap them while both teams are sitting on the couch this weekend.

And there’s no reasonable argument to include Alabama over Ohio State.
It would not surprise me if the committee changes their mind. Michigan, TCU and Georgia should all be in even if they lose. If Michigan loses today without Corum, I can see Ohio State not being in the final 4. The committee does not favor the Big 10 no matter how you slice it or spin it. Until the final 4 is announced, I will still not be surprised to see Ohio State miss out somehow.
They always prefer the SEC over all other conferences. Win-loss record means some but is not the end all be all. It's just like Notre Dame getting high rankings every year even when they end up sucking. They give them the benefit of the doubt and always have.

The Big 10 has historically been dreadful in the playoffs so it's easy to understand why.
If TCU loses and Georgia... both tOSU and Bama could still get in. Especially if the losses are lopsided like USC's...
Ashanti just killed the National Anthem!!!
Let's go K State!!! Open the door some more!!!
Not really. They almost always have a winning record.
Georgia has no chance to drop out of the top 4. TCU could with a blowout but even they have beaten multiple top 25 teams. The top 3 now should all stay in and probably in their same positions. USC was really the only one on the fringe with a chance to be bounced.
This does not make me happy...
7-0 TCU

Almost always a winning record? That only happened once and it was the first ever College Football Playoff when Ohio State won the national title. Overall, the Big 10 is 3-5 in the playoffs, losing in the in the first round 4 times. They also have the only two teams (Michigan State and Ohio State) to ever be shut out in a playoff game.
%19 chance Alabama makes the playoffs.
Ok. K State looks terrible. My hopes may be dashed...
So you're saying that there's a chance?!?!?!
Party pooper...
