BYU screwed in initial CFB playoff rankings

[Matt]

BYU has a strength of record at #3 or 4 but still behind Indiana, Tennessee, Penn St, Miami. I will agree with you Ute fans that the B12 gets zero respect nationally, even though it is ranked #2 in conference power rankings by Saragin. The only way BYU gets to the playoff is to win the Big 12 championship game. They go 12-0 and lose in championship game they will get left out.

Boise is going to steal the Big 12 top 4 playoff seeding.

Well after Saturday the majority of the heavy lifting is over for them . They control they’re own destiny and should win out imo.

There’s a reason Utah fans want a B1G invite… BYU should be posturing the same, for when the 2 conferences in power break off. The other option is have enough eyeballs on the non B1G/SEC teams, but it’s not happening

Just wait until after Saturday night! Utes gonna be doing the coug screwing boogie!

Honestly these rankings are dumb, don’t rank the teams in some random order based on what you think if it doesn’t reflect the playoff format. BYU should automatically be number 4 (at least) just because of the playoff rules. This is literally just another AP poll.

They’re dumb but it’s basically saying if BYU (or Iowa state) are the big 12 champ at 12-1, Boise could get that #4 spot. Lots of disrespect by the committee toward the big 12

4 B1G 4 SEC 1 BIG12 1 ACC ND and G5. Thanks but I’m f**king done with college football if that’s where we live.

I’ll live with approximately
3 SEC
3 B1G
2 BIG 12
2 ACC 1 G5 and 1 Whatever year in and year out but f**k no to the rest.

I’ve probably watched 150 less hours of CFB this year because 1) utah sucks and 2) big12 games are both not on primetime slots but beyond that also not a bunch of storied teams and the conference dynamics being what they are don’t make it interesting. As an aside it’s a tragedy that the 2 most marquee names OSU and Utah look like dog s**t this year given that it’s the first of this frankenstein of a conference but that said I’m out. I hate the B1G and other than some amount of mild chuckles at Texas causing heartburn for SEC teams I’m really 10000000% down on college football this year. I don’t like the product.
