No - they would 100% have put in another 3 loss SEC team over a historic undefeated team like Boise, UCF, etc.
It looks ridiculous this year because (i) there are two shitty conference bids because 5 loss Duke won the ACC championship instead of Miami/FSU/Clemson so the ACC lost their spot and (ii) the two teams just aren't that compelling. Last year you just a Boise St team here that did okay. |

Date: December 7th, 2025 4:06 PM Author: lavender contagious abode It's pretty obvious that the "committee" just didn't want to piss off the SEC by dropping Bama after the championship game (even though they deserved it) and didn't want to piss off the ACC with no bids.
So dropped Bama 0 spots - because they didn't want to punish someone for playing a conference championship (even if they lost by 21).
But they dropped Ohio State for losing.
Even more importantly, they dropped BYU for losing its game.
Because that allowed them to move Miami up a spot - and then put Miami and Notre Dame next to each other, which means now they have to put Miami above Notre Dame because Miami beat them at home by 3 points the first game of the season.
It's all perfectly logical and consistent! |

If your team was just outside of a 12 freaking team playoff, they didn’t get gypped. They have no claim to play for the national championship. Same is true of every team this year that isn’t Indy TT or Ga. |
