@RoddyJones20@StephenHartzell I believe you assumed a blowout would happen and your thoughts were justified by the first half (whether you say that’s your point or not). My issue is that you and others clamor for a fix. Why? Who should’ve had the 12th spot? You’re fighting for mid over inclusion.
.@StephenHartzell - must have missed this energy from @RoddyJones20 before and after previous playoff blowouts. Which teams didn’t belong in the field?
2/3 OU/FSU in 14
3/4 MSU/OK in 15
3/4 OSU/Wash in 16
1 Clem in 17
1/3 Bama/ND in 18
Could keep going. All lost by 3+ scores.
@RoddyJones20@StephenHartzell We’ve been grading on a curve since the beginning - literally every system college football has ever employed to name a champion builds in some level of judging some teams differently than others. Bama’s three losses aren’t the same as Virginia’s because we graded on a curve.
@RoddyJones20@StephenHartzell Same energy…
49:14 “We need to change the system so we don’t have this.”
Referencing 1st round blowouts. You added to your argument but the entire premise was based on JMU got beat by a lot and you saw that coming because they play on Tuesdays in high school stadiums.
The “didn’t belong” narrative is tired.
EVERY four team playoff from 2014-2023 had at least one of the three games be a three score-plus game. And that’s when we were only including the top four and didn’t have any AQs.
Stop diminishing both the accomplishment and experience.
@thesalesdoc_rx@Schizziee2 Bought six at the very end of the lottery window for $40 each. Sold three that I couldn’t use right before the game for $62 each. Demand was extremely high.
Two hour lines for merchandise.
In all seriousness, I’d read any number of words on high major teams who are having - or on the verge of having - their best season in program history. Clemson is on that list. Should be celebrated. Not seen as a drag on poor Duke.
I’m positive @GaryParrishCBS would have no problem considering UNC an elite team if it had Clemson’s resume. Wrong colors on the uniform, I guess. If only the Tigers and matched up against Duke on the court to see if they could hang 🙄
“People have not talked about Clemson enough,” said @MattNorlander who only talks about Clemson when he couches it with how bad the ACC is or when ball knower @StephenHartzell forces the Tigers into the conversation in a positive light.
