it's just to provide relevance and keep college football important. A team that's 3-5 can lose interest pretty fast. Give them a bowl birth to play for and they'll try. Heck 5-7 teams have been in bowl games.

i have a stupid question. How do bands and cheerleaders travel to games? FCS is smaller so it works there. But is it possible to fill huge stadiums for a 16 team tournament? Can Alabama cheerleader girl criss-cross the country for 4 weeks straight? If you play 12 of the 15 games on-campus they woul...

Does Oklahoma get an automatic berth or are they as conference champs still the 7th or 9th team on the outside?
Some are arguing the AAC should be the 6th power conference? do they get an automatic berth?

let's just have a 68 team tournament

Detroit's NFL-record streak of games decided by 7 or less is over. No complaints today. Best game Lions have played all season. First game of Drew Brees career with 0 TDs and 3 INTs Matthew Stafford MVP Candidate? First Lions win all year they didn't have to comeback to win. In the year of streaks ...

Shirley: you'd have to put Michgan somewhere in your equation too. They were #3 going to #2's stadium and lost in double OT. If PSU are the conference champs that beat OSU, Michigan beat that conference champ by 40.

The College Football selection committee tries to solve 5 issues at once and can't achieve all of them every time. For all the talk about the process, it's pretty hard to question the committee's decisions for the first 3 years. The only controversial decision was Ohio State over Baylor two years a...

Gaudreau is back tonight. Extra padded gloves.

Yeah, it'll be Alabama vs. Washington and Clemson vs. Ohio State. (Though I have to admit OSU vs. Alabama in the semifinal would be fascinating.) I wouldn't be shocked if they bump OSU down to 4 on the grounds that it didn't win its conference. But the real reason would probably be to ensure monste...

Jeff Fisher got a contract extension....Jeff Fisher....got a contract extension. The guy about the become the losingest coach in NFL history, who has 6 winning seasons in 22 years....got a contract extension. Trying to kill the Rams in LA before there's even the new stadium?

So, the only debate here is seeding 2-4, right? I'm sure ESPN will talk up Michigan and Penn State's chances to build suspense but this is a no-brainer to me. I'm no Condoleeza Rice but if you have a 4-team playoff and exactly 4 P5 teams have 1 loss or less, it's a pretty simple process. The only d...

This conference USA game is headed towards 150 points

can you headbutt a person upwards? I think he was battling in front of the net and lifted his head.

They are adding mixed curling for 2018.

The Flames are 6-3-1 through their last ten, and the oilers are 3-6-1.... There is balance in the force. bapo: i liked your rant above. Up here it's all McDavid and Matthews that lead the sportscasts, every night. In America, the NHL doesn't take risks so it's going to be niche forever. Edmonton? fo...

So Fox in Brazil just showed a black screen for 90 minutes in the slot that was supposed to have the game. Classy move. Last night 50000 fans showed up at Atletico National's stadium for a memorial The song they are singing "send the cup to heaven" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_5KA57V-...

Game is nuts. 5-5 on aggregate.

why does California vote overwhelmingly Democrat? Aren't they hurt by job loss? In San Francisco anyway, there is great pride in tolerance. That translates to liberalism on social issues. Lots of people came here to flee restrictive social mores elsewhere, so the Republicans aren't winning anything...

what the tiebreaker order?

conference championships
head-to-head beatdowns
strength of schedule

degenerasian

The more I think about this the more i'm with Brian. I think Alabama, OSU and Michigan are already in. There is only one spot left.

If Clemson wins they're in
else if Washington wins they're in
else......

now it gets tricky
Colorado?
OK/OK State?
Wisconsin?

If you put in alabama, osu, michigan and colorado the big10 champ would have a real beef

If they both lose is the 3 big10 teams scenario I was joking about earlier possible?

if Ohio State is in without a conference championship then by default Alabama would be too.

No you couldn't. You'd be too busy punting.

Hey, DiS. Big game this Friday. I am a bit conflicted because I'd really like to see a Pac-12 team in the national championship playoffs, and that would require a Washington win. But, this has been such a fun, surprising year for the Buffs that I have to continue rooting for my home state and a Col...

Holy crap, Teams should pounce on this and find a way to get Barkov. Florida can name their price. I wonder if this move is related at all to Florida's recent fancy stats push. Florida was the most prime regression candidate from last season, so the management must want to go after a coach who plays...

Here's one for you guys. Last night should Bennie Fowler have run it in for a TD? That would look stupid on tv but if he goes down at the 5 The Broncos run 3 more plays then kick a FG to go up by 4. The Chiefs had no timeouts left.
