The biggest problem with the CFP, it's a moving target week to week with the committee. So, like I said, I ain't wrong. It's easier to win when you're given more chances because the criteria is adjusted to ensure your participation.
Kind of hard to do that when you don't give teams a chance. It's an artificial barrier that gives certain teams an advantage based purely on speculation. CFB is the ONLY SPORT IN THE WORLD where you can win every game you play, and not have a chance for a championship.
Not exactly surprising. It happened here last season, and those guys knew they were gone before they left, and were the big push for not playing a bowl game.
