ManhattanDuck No. 1 Share Posted December 3, 2023 I could easily see a scenario where Oregon wins a close game against UDub, Texas wins a blowout (which they did), FSU wins ugly (which they did), and Alabama eeks out a close win over Georgia (which they did) that the Ducks would/could end up on the outside looking in at a CFP of Alabama, Michigan, Texas and either FSU or Georgia…bias against Pac12 might have had one last swan song 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

anyotherduck No. 4 Share Posted December 3, 2023 Teams that play 100% for a full 60 minutes might be more impressive to the CFP committee. Either way, had we won we would have been in. We didn't so no use speculating at this point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

QuackAttack No. 6 Share Posted December 3, 2023 I said it last week had Oregon won they would find a way to lock out the PAC. Having dug deep into the world of conspiracies for decades, it is now clear that the past 20 years of BC$/CFP that it was designed to consolidate the FBS and eliminate the weakest run conferences, i.e. poorly lead conferences not poor talented teams. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
