Someone had a good point in favor of allowing non P5 teams in. Don’t we see playoff blowouts as it is every year even with the P5 blueblood teams in?
The difference between LSU and Oklahoma last year is larger than A&M to Cincinnati this year I bet.
Well that might be true, but that's not the comparison. The difference between Alabama and Cincinnati this year is much greater than between LSU and OU last year. And Cincinnati is probably the best group of 5 team in 10 years when it comes to talent throughout the roster. While 63-28 was bad, Alabama would beat Cincinnati 70-0.
Its that time of the year again where people dust off that same tired ass argument. “Do you really think (Utah, Boise, TCU, UCF, etc.) can compete with these big boys?”
How many times has the answer to that been proven “Yes” in the NY6 bowls? You don’t know the outcome until you play the games.
Realistically G5s are left out because the big conferences are scared to let them in. The second you give G5s a shot it hurts recruiting to P5 schools. Thats why they are left out.
The few times they beat disinterested big boys in meaningless bowl games doesn't prove they could compete with the best of them with a championship on the line.
I mean, I would love to watch an expanded playoff and see teams like Cincinnati get in it. But they would never win it.
So because they won those games against really good teams, that proves they would be unable to beat other really good teams?
Seriously what kind of logic is that.
You don’t know how they’ll do in a playoff until they actually get the chance to compete. Here are some of the blowouts in previous playoffs:The few times they beat disinterested big boys in meaningless bowl games doesn't prove they could compete with the best of them with a championship on the line.
