Next season will be better. 12 teams right? Or is it 8.

12

12 is a good number. Doesn't matter how many teams are in, there's always going to be teams with a legit argument they got snubbed from the field but if you're on the bubble of a 12 team playoff you don't have a realistic shot anyway.

WTF do you go for it on 4th and 7 in FG range for you opponent when you have 3 timeouts left? You are down 7 so you’re giving FSU a 10 point lead if you don’t get it. I don’t get not punting and hoping your D stops them and you call 3 timeout but you are only down 7.

Nope im right. I always get these rankings right.

 

FSU is not currently a top 4 team in the country. Voters will penalize them for not having their starting QB. It's really that simple.

Guess we will find out to tomorrow at noon

And you have been consistently wrong for some time now

And the converse of that is the other 1-loss teams lost games they should have won.

This. I mean, Ohio St lost just once. To the best team in the country. GA lost just once ... last game of the season (an "extra" game not even historically played), Bama lost just once, Texas lost just once. What is the criteria?

FSU is in. They have zero losses. Michigan is in. Washington is in.

    • I'm going to be real, the reason that vote ended up so lop-sided by the end was directly due to my programming. So there's nothing tongue in cheek about it. Also I left PFF after the Collinsworth acquisition (didn't want to move to Cincy) but have stayed involved in analytics via backdoor channels, but I can absolutely say that the experience was eye-opening, not because those guys are unquestionable football savants and that I became one by proxy, but because the amount of information that becomes available outside of what the typical fan has access to is revelatory and also really drives home how much context is still being missed even with all of that information. You don't discover that you know everything, you discover how much you still can't know no matter how hard you try, hence my point about the NFL not being able to figure out what makes a QB good. There's a lot of AI work going into that now and even that only seems to further confuse things vs. actually enlighten the problem. In the professional realm teams don't really talk about quarterbacks as A strictly being better than B, but how A can potentially perform better than B given a specific context of C. Of course those contexts may be wider for A than B, but there's also contexts where B can outshine A, even with lesser talent surrounding them. So what good teams strive to do is ultimately define a process of how they want their entire team to operate under schematically, find players that fit that scheme, and hopefully find a guy whose skillset will be maximized running that scheme with those players. Where bad teams fall of the wagon is constantly shifting those schemes and chasing bad fits or fads vs. sticking with a core identity and developing it.
    • there is a 100 mile long list of NFL players and coaches going to bat and defending horrible play from teammates.   
    • In 6 games, we've only had 6 hurries??? ... that can't be accurate
