Quote:How do you know I would never list it?  In my view, you take the top 16 teams and throw them into the playoff.  They are the most deserving at the end of the year.

 

As far as missing their qb for most of the game, that was because they knocked him out.  The UCF defense played lights out that first half and gave up a lot of yards to the running back....they also made a late run and almost won the game.  They lost to one of the better teams in the best conference in the nation last year.  That shouldn't knock them out.

 

UCF also wants to join a power five conference....I'm hoping it happens sooner rather than later.

 

Right, but in Trav's system South Carolina wouldn't be included. We agree that the aim should be getting the best teams in the playoff. Why aren't you responding to his posts saying that Alabama and South Carolina should have been included in a 2013 16 team playoff?

 

My point to you is that wherever you make the cut off, you are going to have teams that felt "deserving". How do you leave out 11-1 Louisville who's only loss was to UCF? How do we know that Louisville wouldn't have beaten some of the teams allowed in a 16 team playoff like Arizona St.? At the time, how do you leave out 11-1 Fresno St. and 11-1 Northern Illinois?
