Fuck all of these people. Hairball the only one whose said heâd take a pay cut to pay the players who are getting ripped off, so that makes him #1 in my book. I hope they openly and brazenly cheat their CFP opponents. Connor needs to be at the SECCG.
I get why Georgia is #1 but Michiganâs resume is clearly better.
I need Connor to be in Atlanta this weekend with his film crew. Also, canât remember if I posted it in this thread but College Football 3.0 has predictably arrived:

Paying high school kids $1M is the dumbest fucking idea ever. The play was always tamper through the portal and pay top dollar for the best free agents who have proven themselves. Could easily see this turning into bidding wars with all of the money going to just a few players and being a huge disaster.
The thing is $1M is crazy low for a top-flight QB at an ambitious P5 school. How are the TAMU boosters not immediately offering $2.5M (or more) after seeing this tweet? Here are the revenue share estimates from the 2020 NBER paper:
Thatâs the average counterfactual compensation with professional league-matched revenue share across all of CFB. Cliffs: Bump it at least another 25% for the top programs / conferences multiplier. But itâs more complicated than this b/c the NIL boosters arenât going to fairly compensate everyone across the boardâtheyâre going to bid up the scarcest resources like star QBs. Wouldnât surprise me if $5M was the going rate.
Ok never mind I think I want the second spot right now, as thereâs a better chance we play FSU
Longer worse cheating is a self-own?
(I have no clue whatâs going on in this clip, but whatever the logic of the bit, it doesnât work)
FSU should absolutely not be in the conversation to make the CFP. Their draw should be to a UM or UT loss only and even then itâs sketch.
You canât leave out an undefeated power 5 champ in the current system regardless of injuries. Ohio st winning the title with their 3rd string qb made this a thing.
Yes they can. They can do anything they want. Itâs a fake criteria invitational tournament with Calvinball rules.
Yeah but theyâre never going to
Right because these are feeble minds whose level of sophistication tops out at sort_by_losses. Thatâs the point Iâm making. This is a clear and obvious situation where it doesnât work but they are 2D people looking at a 4D map.
Florida State to Make 2023-24 College Football Playoff
Yes -134 (57%)
Florida State to win the National Championship
+3500 (< 3%)
âWe need to put that team in one of the three biggest games of the year!â
Doesnât matter. 13-0 gets in 100%
Itâs literally stalions giving portnoy intel
Throwing out a season of results because a teams QB got hurt is absurd
Lol nothing is being thrown out. All of the games counted but this isnât the NFL.
