It's really fucking simple. FSU edges shitty Notre dame at home. Asu, who until last weekend had never done shit for the greater conference, btw, buggers ND in the desert with a pitch fork. Finally.
Meanwhile, Oregon gets a top four ranking based upon being highly competitive for years as well as killing three "physical defenses," (no, UW is not one of them), while "looking good." The FS loss to Arizona is still to a team hanging around the CFP rankings.
Stomping three top defenses and losing to a ranked squad while suffering from key injuries > sliding by undefeated against a who's who of shit.
It's the math of the new CFB era,
Wow that's some quookin there.
Alabama among other teams ranked below you, would/will grudgefuck you and you know it.
The rankings aren't supposed to have anything to do with being "highly competitive for years". It's this year. And if people were taking into account past years, why did a FSU team that hasn't lost since 2012 get jumped?
A key injury is losing your QB or stud RB or WR, btw. If you shit the bed losing a key Olineman, it means you have no depth and don't belong among the top 2 if you lose.
Noone is really bitching about Oregon being in the top 4.
What people think is out and out corruption is Oregon being ranked #2.
