I am surprised no one has talked about the Georgia, Alabama game tonight for all the marbles. I am picking Alabama to win another national title.

Lake,
I enjoy your Insight on a lot of topics. Can you tell me why this isn't good football?
Georgia is impressive offensively Alabama defense is good not Alabama good.
Alabama’s offense is offensive.
Don’t care what ESPN tells me but jalen Hurts is a running back imitating a Qb.
Good players for sure - good overall teams not so much.
It took Georgia all of 2 possessions to realize all they had to do was spy Hurts, and that he was unable to throw the ball downfield. Saban is gonna look like a genius for going with the lefty in the 2nd half, when in all reality, it was Bamas only realistic chance to move the ballLake,
Who would you like to have seen play in the game? I look on the field and I see speed, size, great coaching and amazing athleticism.

Sounds like someone is jealous here. But there may be some people who would agree with you. Like the people of Clemson. I guarantee they wanted Ohio State instead of Alabama in that first game of the tournament. I don't feel like OSU would have beaten Clemson and Alabama dominated that game. Remember, they scored 24 points against a team that had 4 D-Linemen who will probably be drafted each in the first two rounds.Still had an issue with. Team that couldn’t win its own conference playing in the playoff.
People rant and rave about the power of the Sec but once you get past the top three it want a very good year at all for the league.
Despite two losses Ohio st should have been given the fourth spot. The Iowa loss was the reason of course but I didn’t come away impressed with this Bama team. They got in on what they have done in the past vs what they did this year.
When your best regular season win was vs Mississippi st who a week later lost to a brutally bad Mississippi team that’s not much of a schedule.
Finally, you say Alabama got in mostly because of their past and not because of the present. Well, someone knew something because 'Bama won it all. Presently they are the NCAA champions.
Agree with all but this as they didn't "earn" the spot. This whole thing is a sham until they take the winners of the power 5 and 3 at large bids and make it 8 teams.
But then we have the "9th best" team in the country complaining about not getting in. It goes on, and on, and on.Hard to take the winners of the power 5 every year. Sometimes a team that may have lost 3 games but win their conference would get in. Are they one of the best 8? I don't think so.
I do hope they go to 8 teams. Then losing a game late doesn't kill your chances to get in. And it would create more meaningful games to watch come November.
OK here we go. Let's water it down so more teams can get a participation trophy. Sorry, but the 8th ranked team doesn't belong in a tournament. Neither does 5,6 or 7 in my mind. Four is good...no more.Agree with all but this as they didn't "earn" the spot. This whole thing is a sham until they take the winners of the power 5 and 3 at large bids and make it 8 teams.
Exactly. Where do you stop? What the hell! Let's just put the top 20 teams in. Four is good.But then we have the "9th best" team in the country complaining about not getting in. It goes on, and on, and on.

Gotta wonder why Parrish did not carry the route into the endzone or at least collide it. Even if he had the short underneath zone, no receiving threat was appearing there. The closest target was the #3 receiver from the strong side who looked bracketed by 2 other defenders in the medium depth middle area. Why drop into a space with no receiving threat there?Felt bad for the Parrish kid, was getting beat the entire night and Georgia gave him very little safety help.. on that last play he almost gave up, threw his arms up..
If the playoffs expanded to 8 no Non Power 5 team would get in.Btw 98 Tulane would have killed TennesseeHard to take the winners of the power 5 every year. Sometimes a team that may have lost 3 games but win their conference would get in. Are they one of the best 8? I don't think so.

Tempted to go on a rant, but won't...not sure what some of you guys on here know about football, but bottom line, Bama and Georgia very good teams, great game, Saban a great coach and Kirby will win one or two as well! Roll Tide!

You are a funny guy. Show me a guy here who isn't getting older and I'll show you a guy who is dead. I like the idea of getting older more than the alternative...yes?Maybe old age is getting to you.
1. Who said shite about a participation trophy?
2. The team that won didn't even win their conference, so wtf?
I respect your opinion. I just disagree. Four is enough.I think we are at the threshold of 8 teams. For every argument any one makes there is a counter. People say Iowa for Ohio State - I say Mercer.
Alabama proved it should be there. Will never know if Ohio State could have done just as well.
This needs to go to an 8-team playoff sooner rather than later.

The short answer is...no reason to mess with what works.Fair enough. If you could create the criteria for the playoff what would that be?
