Miami not getting the help it needed for weeks but then getting two blowouts today is amazing.

The media is all over it.

The committee looking dumber by the minute if they choose to keep Miami out.

Love how no one fox talking about the facemask the OSU OL grabbed that allowed Sayin to get out of the grasp

Yeah. The official (center judge?) was reaching for his flag and would’ve called it if it wasn’t blown dead.

Elaborate. Why is the weather a problem?

1. Turnout. This time of year people are vacationing or seasonal residents in Florida. No one except a die hard fan of the two teams involved, is traveling to freeze their butt off, to watch a game they’re not invested in.

2. Product. Whether at the game or on TV, people nationally, want to watch a big game, where the teams can exhibit their best form, without wind, cold or snow being a major factor.

Only 1 Super Bowl in history has been played outside a warm stadium or dome and that was because Goodell is a hypocritical ***, that wanted a game in his home state (NYC).
 
Sad that freaking Virginia or Manny at Duke is going to win an ACC Championship before Mario and Miami.

I think even if they’re the 2 seed it’s the same discussion. You’re not taking Alabama from IN to OUT based off what happened in a game they earned their way into. Not when OU and Ole Miss and A&M get to sit home and be in no danger when they didn’t earn their way into the game.

This may have been discussed already so sorry if I’m repeating, but just off top of mind I can think of 3 times this has happened in the CFP, and conference championship games are still going strong. 2017 Wisconsin AND Auburn got booted for idle Alabama (who had just lost to Auburn the week before), and 2022 USC got booted for idle Ohio State.

I wouldn't have counted Virginia either before. I'm a UVA grad, they've never cared about football. HOWEVER, for the first time ever, they are actually pouring money and resources into it. UVA is potential sleeping giant. They've got the pedigree and money.

Great academic institution & actually had a legit run under George Welch. Unable to sustain. At this point, a lot of programs are awakening to the need to spend money. Another issue is VT has also had a rude awakening & much better bet.

It is legitimately unbelievable that no one seems willing to broach this issue. Ole Miss lost virtually their entire offensive staff. It's not the same team.

When they say “it’s not fair to the players” they just have to point to 2023 where an undefeated FSU was passed over for 2 SEC teams because they weren’t the same without the qb.

Don’t recall SEC fans crying for FSU.
