Oregon still has to beat Finland for the Gold Medal.

Sven, your goalpoast-moving in the last 24 hours has been admirable.

It seems to be based on a few fallacies:

(1) X Conference sucks. So what? Teams win, not conferences.

(2) College football sucks. No it doesn't. Even if I didn't care about Oregon, this has been one of the best and most entertaining football seasons I can remember. You can watch Barca or Arsenal if you like stockpiled talent.

(3) "Find me a better conference division than the SEC West" Who cares? The SEC did this with their SECSECSEC hype, Paul fucking Finebaum, and ESECPN Network. Three SEC West teams were in the first final four rankings from the committee. They all deserve to eat some crow for falling on their faces on the big stage. I'm a Duck fan, I've seen us fail on the big stage, and we took our lumps. The vaunted SEC-W deserves some now. They may actually still be the strongest division in CFB (the games aren't over yet) but they failed when it mattered.

I get what you're trying to do here. This is the poasting that launched some great memes "win a RB and pop off" and all that. It's got to be maddening for you. Because Oregon has actually been achieiving the ever-moving goal poast and popping off, as is their right. Even if Oregon loses the natty, this would already be a season for the record books for any team: Heisman, conference champs, destroyed the only team that beat them in a rematch, plungered the defending national champs/Heisman winner/29-game winning streak, 2d Rose Bowl win in four years, 7th straight 10+ win season.

Ultimately, when I sober up I'm going to look at each division in CFB on a FBS wins-per-team basis. That metric will tell me where the toughest league is.

No

You were on a roll but that blew it

I know. The correct play would have been even "if we don't win half the national championship..."

Good one!
 
Oh, and if you look at states based on NFL production per 100,000 the most talent-rich state is Louisiana, followed by Texas and Florida. Alabama is like 4th or 5th. California is a few notches down. Something about quick-twitch muscles and Afro-American-ness.

Edit - Texas is lower than I thought. Most be all those Hispano-Americans moving in

Bama and tOSU look like Race and Sven trying to bake a cake for Sark.

Oregon vs. TCU was the real Championship Game. It took a whole panel of geniuses to fuck that one up, and they had an extra game to play with.

i'm so bored with TCU and Baylor that I'd rather talk about a shit I took two hours ago.

it's done. Ohio State would roll them both. How do I know? I don't. Neither does anyone. They had to make a decision. If they'd picked TCU or Baylor, we'd be here bitching about Ohio State.

seriously. it's done. Baylor already vindicated the committee's decision on them. Congrats on TCU's route of Ole Miss, a hill billy 'school' if ever there was one. It was nice of them to kill that obnoxious story of 2014 and put it out of its misery.

Ohio State had the chance to impress late, which they did against Whisky. that was good enough for me. Big XII will now have a title game I bet. problem probably solved.
 
As long as you have five power conferences and four playoff berths, you will have a problem.

yeah, but you know, now that we're sufficiently removed from the old bowl system, there's an element to cfb that makes it unique that you might appreciate. yeah, it sucks when it's your team, but nobody is dying here, so who cares. it gives us something to talk about.

the only truly fair sport is track and field. the clock don't lie. everything else has some element to shit in it.
