  • Hard disagree with you on all counts. The playoff should not be limited to the top 12 teams with the best odds at winning it. If that is what we wanted, the games wouldn't matter. We would just use the Las Vegas odds to find the best teams. If the games matter, we need to value winning, and punish losing. The hard part is, although James Madison objectively has done more winning this year than every team other than Indiana, Texas Tech, Ohio State, and Georgia. The conflict comes from the fact that winning with James Madison's schedule is objectively easier than those other 4 schools. So how do we tell which team is better? Our current system allows us to see. Put James Madison up against Oregon, and let's see. That is what I'm excited to see.

  • Yes, our current system is much better than those other ones. The concern is that now the discourse has shifted, and people want to cut spots for the G5 to benefit the P4 even more.

  • My biggest frustration is the talking heads with this whole thing. They keep talking about how we are keeping deserving teams out, and we need to rethink why we are letting bad G5 teams in. I'm sorry, but you are wrong here.

    The G5 has fewer resources, but they work just as hard as the big programs do. In order to win their spot, they have to win their conference. These are not loser teams that get put in out of pity. They had a tougher road, one with essentially no margin for error. Let them have a their swing at the blue bloods. So what if it is a blow out? Give them their chance, let their fanbase get excited and hopeful for once.. I would rather see that 100 times out of 100 over watching Alabama and Georgia play their 20th "VeRy ImPoRtAnT" game of the last decade.

  • I feel like I'm second every week, lol

  • Week 10 Poll

    Jump

  • The main reason is, I try to over react a bit in my polls, because I am afraid if I don't, the poll will be stagnant. "Poll Inertia" and all that is real, so I try really hard to avoid it.

    Indiana is #1, and I feel very comfortable with that. I think that 63-10 win over Illinois is the best win by any team in the season. The rest of their wins are big (If you realize 5 points in an Iowa game is the equivalent to 20 in a normal game.)

    Texas A&M is basically tied to Ohio State right now. I think Ohio State is a bit better, but the Aggies have played a tougher schedule, and have played an extra game. If Ohio State wins comfortably this week, while Texas A&M is on the bye, it will probably switch, but that is next weeks problem to figure out.

  • Here is my Human Poll

  • I feel bad about this week. Penn State feels like a trap game against Ohio State this weekend.

  • Ireland plans to make a $1,500 a month basic income for artists permanent

    Jump

  • The criteria for artists they provide is not good. Maybe Ireland is different, but I think broadly, we need more bridge builders than music bands. Both require skill, practice, hardwork and require "art" skills. The difference is, people tend to care about the oversaturated one more. We need both, but one is much more underutilized.

  • This poll is so funny. Georgia and Tennessee go into overtime. Georgia wins, and is not the best team in the country. Tennessee loses close to the best team in the country, and are kicked out of the poll. lol
