OFFICIAL College Football Playoff Announcement and Bowl Game Announcement Thread

Best match ups. Bama and Oregon would be huge favorites regardless.
This way we get Saban and Urban Legend. And Oregon and FSU could be a classic like the Iron Bowl
I didn't think TCU or Baylor belonged before this week. After 59-0, it was an easy decision.
I do feel bad for Tequilla and TCU fans because the committee toyed with them, but for all the talk about the Big 10 sucking, the Big 12 is just as bad. The reason why Baylor and TCU have the records they do is because Texas, Oklahoma, and Oklahoma State all suck.
Between TCU and Baylor, they had one really impressive win an it was when Baylor beat TCU. Neither team deserved to be in.

The dreckfest that is the Big 12.
Baylor: Good season. Has been good the past few years. All offense, very little defense, but the offense is elite.
TCU: Good program. Struggled their first two years in the Big 12.
Kansas State: Solid program, but has a ceiling due to lack of talent.
Oklahoma: Shitty season.
Texas: Hasn't been really good for awhile, but 6-6 is their worst season since 2010. Before that, 1997.
West Virginia: Average team that has been average for awhile.
OK State: Shitty season
Texas Tech: Shitty season. The arrow is pointing down since handsome Sark took over.
Kansas: Nuff said
Iowa State: A few years ago, they were capable of pulling off some upsets at home. Now, they are a disaster.
It's a really bad year for the conference. Can anyone other than Tequilla make an argument that this is a good conference? It's been the worst season for Texas since 2010. Worst season for Oklahoma since 2009. Worst season for OK State since 2007. Worst conference record for Texas Tech since 1985! Worst season Paul Rhoades has had at Iowa State (2009). Neither TCU or Baylor beat anyone in non conference. Winning against Minnesota at home is okay, but it shouldn't move the needle. But how is it fair that TCU and Baylor missed the playoffs?

What is sad is I think that is actually better than the Big 10's OOC wins. I am too lazy to look it up but I can't remember a signature win for the league. And keep in mind Minn & Maryland finished 2nd & 3rd in their respective Big 10 dreckfest divisions.
Simple fact is you can't have TCU at #3 based on their resume, then they blow out a team, and you drop them 3 spots.

TCU is going to plunger Ole Miss. They may not have deserved to be in the playoff, but they're a strong 5.
Rutgers beat the Cuogs
The committee has said all year that they start over every week. Try to keep up. Commentators saying TCU shouldn't have dropped are just revealing that they don't know what they are talking about

I think that was their only decent OOC win. I think the committee put way to much weight into beating Wisconsin, whose best wins on their resume were Nebraska and Minnesota, a team TCU plungered.

I don't actually disagree.
Refer you back to this map which I think guided the committee's decision to jump Ohio State into the playoff:
Also, I think the 50+ point plungering of a good (if not great) Wisconsin team lubricated the Texas plunger just a bit, and follow that up with the stupidity of the Big XII commish hedging his bets in an attempt to shoehorn two teams from a good-but-not-great XII into the playoff and you get ESPN's chosen one in the playoff against Bammer

I think it was the Big 12 commish being FS more than Ohio St being a better football team than TCU.
