Championship games

[The Doddfather]

Post if you want. I saw the videos differently.

We all know you saw them differently. You’ve made that clear. No way the refs were wrong. Or the review team on a short review. Since you are incapable of looking it up yourself / don’t remember / didn’t see what happened in front of your eyes, I’ll do the research and send it to you.

Here you go Root. Why does HK’s head snap back if it’s not lowering the crown of the helmet to make forcible contact to the head or neck area?

This is the test. SMU with the OT loss. Texas with the OT loss. Both now 11-2. Both ranked higher than their opponent.

Who stays and who goes? Also, will UGAg get the F$U treatment for losing their starting QB?

Here’s the bs PI, even without taking the tip into consideration. Trajectory/rotation of the ball clearly changed at the line of scrimmage on the broadcast view and on replay. I have it recorded but would prefer not to watch again. If you’d like further proof, feel free to DM me and we can meet up so I can show you on the recording. Maybe then you’ll take the whistle off your neck. But I doubt it.

Clearly Texas stays and SMU doesn’t in this scenario.

Texas was already higher ranked than SMU and lost to a higher ranked team than SMU lost to.

A better question is if they fall below Alabama.

You missed the point. First, the SMU loss was regulation, not OT. The committee indicated a CFP team that loses a close CCG would not drop out.

Smu was in if they don’t play today. Penalizing a now 2 loss team for losing their conf championship will set a bad precedent moving forward.

If you actually know and understand the rule it is clear why the one against Texas was overturned properly. Targeting includes contact with the "crown" or top part of the helmet. In this instance the Texas defender turns as he makes the hit and the side of his helmet makes contact with the gaggers helmet while a good part of the force on the hit is actually shoulder to shoulder. It is similar to a play the gagger fans keep trying to claim was targeting in our game in the end zone. Neither are targeting. This is also the same type of hit the gaggers put on Marvin Harrison Jr in the game against Ohio State last year that they are adamant was not targeting.

However, on the hit by #17 on King, he CLEARLY looks straight at the ground and makes initial contact with the top (otherwise known as the crown) of his helmet right into the bottom of Kings facemask which nearly comes off King's head before he then hits King's chest and then the ball. If you know anything about physics it is obviously about as textbook of a targeting call as there is.

You’re wasting your time arguing with him.

almost like it was manufactured isn’t it?

Below is a summary of most experts predictions as reported by ESPN. Some have SMU 11 and Clemson 12. So looks like no bye for the ACC but we may get 2:
ACC- 2 in, B1G-4 in, SEC- 3 in, Big 12-1 in plus ND & Boise.

1. Oregon 2. Georgia 3. Boise State 4. Arizona State 5. Notre Dame 6. Texas 7. Ohio State 8. Penn State 9. Tennessee 10. Indiana 11. Clemson 12. SMU

See this is where I get confused. If you win your conference championship, that should be automatic top 5, Notre Dame being a wildcard.
It doesn't make sense to me that a team that doesn't play in their conference championship can sneak in top 5 based on the overall w/l .
That's basically saying that conference championships don't matter
I would think Clemson would top SMU now

So Texas has 0 top 25 wins, played terribly in their conf championship, and has already lost to Georgia TWICE. Why do they deserve a spot in the playoff?

I share your concern. This is where The SECheat Narrative, that so many here discount, becomes very useful to the SECheat.

UGA should be eliminated from the playoffs due to Becks injury.

I betcha that's what most F$U fans are thinking this morning.

Stockton had 71 yards passing and Herbstreit was acting like the kid is the greatest QB ever

Tbf when you compare that to what Beck had done in the first half (and really all year), it does look pretty good.

uga went 11-2 and won the SEC in spite of Beck, not because of him. Could argue the same for Ewers and Texas and that Arch could/would take them further.

Yeah, I don't know who's rabbit ears are set to the higher frequency. The Syracuse coach listening for anyone saying anything remotely close to a diss or root4 listening for anyone saying anything remotely negative about an official.

 

[GT33]

He is building a very solid foundation. And we were 7-6 last year and are 7-5 this year. Real progress. A good team but have a long way to go to be playing for a Conference Championship. We have a chance going forward though.

I hope this isn't a repeat of Gomer. Win a huge game, lose a head scratcher, half a dozen guys go Pro, end season with 7 wins every year.

More conspiracy… this would put the three SEC teams in different quadrants on the bracket thus maximizing their chance to win it all…
