That is irrelevant

If we really are deserving of number one, then we will earn it on the field…there will be no cupcakes in the playoffs


So


Just win


Do you understand the concept of wear and tear?

Hell, the committee's reasoning behind not giving us credit was due to Mizzou's wear and tear already this year.



Do you not understand rhe concept that both 2 and 3 get byes?

And that every team that got a bye last year lost by the way?

I thought the defensive point last week was fair. But now, if that is one of the arguments, the counter I have is why can't Indiana score 30 points on any decent defense on their schedule? Because we have proof that Marcel Reed and A&M can do so on the road against quality defenses. Mizzou's defense was never in question and LSU's defense held Bama in check this past weekend. In fact, our offensive performance is the outlier in Mizzou, LSU, and Notre Dame's schedule. At some point, they deserve respect.

Also heard Rhoades refer to Miami's talent, which I found to be a big no/no from a committee head. If talent is a factor, then there should be little doubt that A&M's schedule is more difficult at this point.

The good news is we can play our way out of this discussion, although at this point, I am starting to doubt that we even have the ability to be ranked higher than 3rd. Feels like the committee will justify keeping the Indiana/Ohio State loser at 2, especially if it is Ohio State.

In all honesty, not only does this ranking not bother me, I kind of like it. Like others have said, win out and you likely move up to 1 or 2. The committee putting us at 3 only adds more motivation in my opinion. It will likely help more than hurt. I do believe we deserve at least to be 2 though.


this .. 100%

Indiana clearly does not have a better resume than A&M.

Mack Rhoads is a graduate of Arizona, got his masters at Indiana and currently is an assistant athletic director at Baylor. Go figure.

The biggest sham on here is texas- other than their 2 loses, theres nothing in the expressed metrics- rankings, ratings, wins, loses, eye test or whatever else that texas has to justify their spot other than an upset win agaisnt an Oklahoma team with a busted qb.

Based on the logic for Indiana and their "gutsy" win this weekend, does that mean the sips wins against Mark Stoops and Cowbell "gutsy" as well?

Committee seems to think so

Cowbells yes.

Stooopid mark Stoops, no. I still cant believe he didn't kick a fg

Bring back the BCS poll.

Committee will always be biased.


I actually think the BCS poll with a 12 team playoff would be great.

That's fine. Vegas should give us the field and let the humans decide the seedings.

All y'all need to know is Bama, UGA, sips, or corndogs would be #1 with our same exact resume.

The bcs would also mean the ccgs matter again. Indiana are guaranteed a loss. The sec will end up with an undefeated or 1 loss team champ. But, the bcs is more predictable, whereas this "committee" just makes **** up as necessary

It's comical that the Big 12 is being treated as anything other than a G5 conference. Tech should absolutely be penalized for their schedule. Also, it's very obvious that the committee is eating up the "little engine that could" narrative with Indiana.

I have plenty to contribute

Like for instance being displeased with the committee is an exercise in futility

Use it as fuel to prove the MFs wrong. I hope the Dawgs hang 30 on the sips, and I hope we hang 50 each on SC, Samford, and the sips.

Win out and win SEC championship and we'll jump the Big10 loser to get to #2. I don't see anyway we end up #1 until we win the whole damn thing.

Looking at the playoff bracket, if it were today and we swapped with Indiana, we would be playing the winner of tu and Ole Miss as opposed to the winner of Tech and Miami. I like our current matchup better.

Exactly

The bottom line is, there is no difference in 2vs 3


We control our own destiny

Just keep winning and we get a bye and a chance to prove that we deserve a higher ranking

Im not sure Indiana is a top 5 team honestly. Cant really tell, they have had one hard game. And they will only play 1 hard game.

Based on results without bias Ags are 1. But really i like that this is happening...makes it easier for team to stay focused!
Nothing looks more foolish than tradition to those who have none.

I am looking forward to tOSU blowing out Indiana. I suspect a match up between us and Alabama would be a narrower contest.

Easy to say just win out and everything will take care of itself. I would 100% prefer the extra leeway being seeded higher would afford you. No doubt about it, your odds of still hosting a playoff game are greater if you are ranked #1 or 2 right now and lose a game than being #3.

Don't really understand the biotch sentiment regarding CFP...I'd rather play tech/miami than miss/tu winner. The committee is doing us a favor pivoting that direction.

Which team had a more difficult game last week? Texas A&M vs Miz w/3rd string QB , no best offensive weapon and missing 2 defensive starters or Indiana vs Penn St no Big Ten wins and a lame duck coach?


And a back up qb



And the Aggies without their #1RB.

Texas Tech loses to Arizona State who lost to Mississippi State. We beat Miss State by 22 and Georgia beat them by 21… and these fools want Tech in the top 4 LMAO

What we've always known is, an upset loss early in the season is still a hole any program can crawl out of. No reason to think of Tech less deserving compared to Bama's lost to FSU. I'm saying that with no bias.

What I cannot wrap my head around is OU and cow being ranked ahead of BYU given that same premise. Their only lost is to a top 10 team, and they havent been in close games against lesser opponents. I get we all hate the Big 12 even if now we're stuck with their ungrateful basta** children that used them. But you're going to reward Stoops cluster f play calling and put that in the top 10?

Like someone else said, Miami will not be able to shake off their loss no matter what they do now. It was too late in the season.
