Having a committee decide this is the worst. It’s like they’re judges for a competition. This is football. Everything should be decided on the field. No committee.
In simple terms Alabama, Clemson, Ohio State, and one random team (usually Notre Dame or Oklahoma) will play depending on their rankings 1 seed plays the 4 seed and 2 seed plays 3rd winner of those games play each other （usually Bama and Clemson) winner of that win the championship
Astrah Cat ummm what? As opposed to other sports where teams with worse records get in over teams with better ones. NFL, 7-9 division winners gets auto bid and 10-6 team misses the wildcard. NBA 9th best team in the west gets no playoff but they have 10 more wins that the idk 3rd best team in the east. NCAA basketball autobid for not winning a conference but a few games in a conference tournament. A team can go undefeated and another team can lose every game in a conference regular season but the team with no wins can win a tournament and autobid the undefeated team can not even get a bid. Yea autobids prove best team hahahaha. The committee sucks but it's way better than autobids. Computers are the solution.
M S what's not to get? You can get super detailed but teams play other teams and try to be ranked in the top 4, if they can't teams that win 5-6 or more games can play an exhibition game after the regular season.
Hey everyone, the best results that i've ever had was by using the Simple Sports Goldmine (just google it) definately the no.1 resource that I've followed.
the main proponents against that idea argue that the players will have to sacrifice too much of their academics for such a demanding type of schedule. Personally, I would also like to see an expanded playoff as that would be way more entertaining and also remove the subjectivity in selecting the top teams. But you still have to remember that these kids are students who also make no money, and are not allowed to use their likeness to make money through sponsors.
As a European, I still don't have a clue about the college football season? I would really appreciate a link to a video that explains the season as a whole? What does the ranking mean? Do every team play each other twice like in football? How are seeds decided? How do teams make it to the playoffs?
Im going to try my best to explain even though I am American I prefer watch football/soccer and will explain it in that sense. College football comitee would be UEFA while the conference are the equivalent of leagues/division (all in one country)and the various bowls are comparable to the fa cup or any domestic cup. Nationals would be the champions league though it would just be one country competing
Something that I have noticed about NCAA Division I FBS football is that there's no real playoff system like FCS, Division II and III have. I don't find it right that a team that has the best record in their conference can't go on and compete for the big championship. Instead, many teams are stuck playing in these useless college bowls instead of playing in a truly postseason game. Division 1 FBS should actually have a real playoff system in which the top teams in each conference should play to determine the very top two teams to play in the National Championship.
I just don’t get why they only have 4 teams make the actual playoffs, would be so much more interesting seeing teams battle each other. And who decides which teams play in each bowl game? Is that all from the committee?
I used to think that way too until I realized students would have to travel across the country multiple times on zero salary only for maybe 2-3 players on thier team actually having a shoot to make it to the NFL while the rest sacrifice their schooling for nothing.
@@Hater20Xthey still don't pay these guys? 👀 I'm new to college football but these guys are putting their health on the lines. So Cartman's "Student atheoletes" wasn't just a skit 🤣
There are only 4 slots and five power 5 conferences, plus five other smaller ones. The only way for a group of 5 team to make the cfp is for them to be undefeated and win big most of the time and beat some decent power 5 teams as well. It would help to have 2 power 5 champs have 2 losses to help boost their case to make it.
@@kingpig8577 It’s unlikely due to the subjective opinion of the Group of 5. Take 2010 TCU for example. This team had 3 Top 25 wins, including a 40 point Top 5 road win, plus a 30.5 average margin of victory, plus a Top 5 offense and #1 ranked defense, with 18 Future NFL picks - they went undefeated in back to back seasons and STILL didn’t make a championship. The only reason Boise State almost had a shot, was because they almost went undefeated in 3 CONSECUTIVE SEASONS, and had annihilated #2 Oregon in back to back seasons and had just beaten TCU in the last bowl game. They were ranked behind them the whole year, but it would have been extremely difficult justifying how Oregon was better than a team they lost to 37-14, and 26-8. Yes this was back in the BCs, but human subjectivity made you 2/3 of the decision
Because imagine your a school in the east coast ranked #10 and you kick the crap out all schools you can play in your 700 mile vicinity. The only schools that can beat you are all on the west coast all ranked #1-9. The #1-9 have to play each other all season long for a playoff spot but you at #10 walk right into the playoffs even though the school ranked #8 was more deserving but they had to play schools #1-5 all season and lost every game even though they are better than school #10. I simplied it obviously. Its because schools can be miles and miles away from any real competition. So the committee decides which schools would be cool to see play each other in the playoffs.
@@Hater20X but that’s just thinking of it in the time frame of 1 year. When the season ends a bunch of players and coaches would see the opportunity of a not so good monopoly for the taking, and they’d go to the next best school in the week conference to assert dominance. Just like the nfl
I’ve never liked college football because the system has too many teams and conferences. This was before the playoff system. I sort of followed Maryland because I’m in the DMV. Now I’m cheering for the Buffs. I’ll see if this makes any sense by December 😂
What the committee claims to compare teams on: Strength of Schedule- - Except 2019 Clemson makes it with ZERO top 25 wins. - Except 2017 Alabama with 2 Top 25 wins, makes it over OSU with 5 Top 25 wins, 4 Top 15 wins and 2 Top 10 wins. Head to Head Results - Except 2016 Penn State literally beat OSU and won the conference championship yet OSU was selected over them. Relative conference superiority - The B10 had the most ranked teams in 2016, 2017, and 2018, yet didn’t even get in the playoffs in 2017 and 2018, and the SEC has had two teams in every year. What the committee really makes it selection based on: $$$$$$$$$$$
The bottom line is picking the 4 BEST TEAMS last time I checked Alabama won it all in 2017 and 2019 Clemson made it to the national championship. And that 2016 Penn st. team not only had 2 losses but lost the rose bowl to USC. Teams are selected based off of their rosters, win total, and most importantly if they proved themselves the previous year. Anyone who doesn't see that either doesn't get it or is purposely missing the point because they didn't get their way.
Combine FBS and Fcs to division 1 let all the Conference Champion and the highest ranked non conference champions ( known as the wild card) seeding is based by conference champions ranking with wild card the lowest seed and use the bowl games as where the games are played,the Orange Bowl is #1 vs. #4, the Sugar Bowl is #3 vs. #2 and the Rosebowl is the National Championship game
thanks, that latest line was exactly what I wanted to know about these "end games" bowls. "Orange Bowl is #1 vs. #4, the Sugar Bowl is #3 vs. #2 and the Rosebowl is the National Championship game" and those #1-#2-#3-#4 teams are rated by suit guys out of 120 teams shortlisted firstly to 25.
The BCS should have stayed. In my opinion, broadcasting wise, FOX should get about half of the bowl games ans ESPN gets the other half. As for the National Championship, Fox and ESPN should switch off every year. But aside from broadcasting, the BCS format gave more teams chances, especially teams that are either underrated or ranked but still good. Ex: TCU, Boise State, Miss. St, Texas Tech, Baylor, Virginia, etc.
I like his point about players not getting paid in an industry making billions, and should make more. However, they do get a small weekly stipen and you are naive if you don't think boosters are giving them cash on the downlow too. As well as a college education.
As a collage athlete familiar with stipends, they give you just enough to cover basic living expenses like groceries. You are not making disposable income.
@@lucyclimer-kennedy3503 I was talking payments, like hundred dollar handshakes and envelopes of cash slipped in the locker vents while they are practicing. Against the rules but unenforcable.
So the top 4 teams that go into the semi finals play in the rose and sugar bowl? So number 1 plays 4 at sugar bowl and 2 plays 3 at rose bowl, and the winners play in the championship game?
I don’t know what’s funnier: (1) the fact that people actually believe the BCS system was scrapped or (2) that the selection committee is the “fair and unbiased” solution to what was never wrong with college football to begin with. The BCS as a system worked perfectly...its ONLY flaw was that it was a ONE-game playoff. Other than that, it was a cold-calculated-unbiased system. But nope. Now the playoffs are determined by a group of biased / bribable / corruptible people. They still use the BCS though, they just won’t admit it. Here’s how it works: behind closed doors, the “totally fair and unbiased” committee will receive the still-functioning BCS’s results after each week. They’ll then add THEIR opinions to how THEY think the rankings should be and then pass it off as though they and they ALONE voted the rankings the way they’re presented
BlackFox0911 One time: TCU 60 first place votes and performed extremely super duper well. do they get in the bcs playoffs? NO! Also, Ohio state finally made it to the playoffs in 2014 when the new system started.
The bcs was pussyball there's no computers or coaches polls in football you settle it on the field they wouldn't allow any of that shit in the NFL so why you doing it in college? It's easier to have a 24 team playoff with the first eight getting a1st round bye, they play the surviving 8 in week 2 they get use up all the bowls with games that mean something
If we expand to eight I recommend they utilize an all-inclusive format. Include every conference champion. That requires restructuring the conferences. 1. Atlantic Coast Conference: include Cincinnati, Notre Dame and Temple. 2. Big Ten Conference: include Colorado and W. Virginia 3. Big XII Conference: include E. Carolina, Houston, Memphis, Rice, S. Methodist, Tulane, UCF and USF. 4. Pac-12 Conference: include Boise St., Brigham Young, Hawaii, San Diego St., and U.N.L.V. 5. SEC: include Clemson and Kansas. 6. MAC: include Army Navy, Massachusetts and Liberty. 7. MWC: include Arkansas St., Louisiana Tech, N. Texas, S. Mississippi, Texas St., Tulsa, UTEP and UTSA. 8. C-USA and Sun Belt: merge. Independent (FCS) Connecticut and N.M.S.U.
Problem is joining a conference has nothing to do with competition, so you can’t just restructure them however you want. Boise State has tried to get into the Pac12 4 times in the last 20 years and been denied every time. Why? Because their research rankings under the Carnegie system are too low - literally has nothing to do with sport whatsoever. BYU has played with the half teams in the Pac12 and regularly schedules them as an independent now. They have good research standings, can they join? Nope. The PAC12 does not allow universities which focus on specific religions. So basically BYU the only Mormon college in the country would be required to no longer be a Mormon college to join? That’s ridiculous....
They should just do bracket of 1-25 that’s why we have the top 25...plus one more team to even out...simple. It all this stupid strength of schedule crap and good wins
god i used to be a BCS fanatic growing up when i still played the game, never really looked into the “playoffs” until now and it’s literally just as corrupt and subjective as ever. Basically if your SEC your ranked above even after taking ridiculous losses cause “strength of schedule” is so important , old heads just wanna see what they like NOT who wins out over higher ranked teams
Um no. Conference championships only get autobids when the bowls they have autobids to are available and if conference champions are in the playoff, runner ups get the bid(if available)
They need to re-due the playoffs and have four top team play for their division bowl game that is really close to their division)those two teams will move to the college playoffs who ever have the high rank get to be home team. And it will be a lot more simple and let the 5. And 6 teams in playoffs.
This is absolutely confusing, and a straightup cluserfuck. How anyone can even take College Football seriously is a mystery to me. The best part is the fact that some of these great athletes will get a chance with the NFL, and other Professional Football leagues. Other than that, this is completely confusing.
power 5 conference's should cannibalize big 12. bring in a few more teams to form 4, 20 team conferences. each team plays 2 non conference games, 9 conference games, followed by conference championship game. winner's go to playoffs. In this setup each team(in addition to a scholarship) should pay 33 of its players. 11 tier 1's get 50k, 11 tier 2's get 35k, 11 tier 3's get 20k. the other 40 players get only the scholarship. it would level the playing field, make better games, and give players money they clearly deserve. you're welcome cfb fans.
HOW about that crappy SEC BABY? THE MOOSE told you idiots that UAT and the SEC was overrated. How does that look for you idiots now? THE DUCKS are about to show the world how tough and great the PAC 12 really is boys!! Colin Cowherd told you as well. Ohio State really put a butt whipping on the UAT TURDS did they not? WOW - A great day in the world today and the MOOSE has been vindicated. Fight on USC and go PAC 12. Congratulations to the Buckshits from Ohio State.
so basically random people do an eye test to pick 4 teams, that’s all that matters. That’s a load of bullshit. They need to do top 4 teams of each conference battle it out then the champions from each conference go head to head for the trophy
I don’t understand bowl games whatsoever. I’m a huge nfl fan but I’m Canadian we don’t really do my college sports here. Like how do teams that are like .500 playing in this bowl game and then when they win they act like they won a championship. It’s confusing if someone wants to explain it.
Honestly sounds like a corrupt mess. The Bowls have no impact or actual meaning, not to mention most teams are invited just because they have the bigger name. And it sounds like the all teams are picked based on how much a certain group likes a team. Why not just let the conferences have top team go into a playoff system and have a bye for the top 3 teams with the 4th team playing against the National champion of the FBC national champs. Also why to top divisions such as FBS and the FBC??????? And why isnt the FBS the same system as the FBC with top teams going to the playoffs for the national championship????? College football makes no sense and IDK why anyone follows it...
Oookay.... How about 2 separare playoffs? Why don't the power 5 teams compete for a final 4. Ex. (Bama beats Dawgs) Bama. And the lesser conferences compete for a final 4 (UCF beats Memphis) UCF. The winner of each playoff compete for the overall Championship (Bama vs UCF) ...... That solves the UCF problem, right??? . 🤔 Or.... Top (3) ranked power 5 teams get selected into the final 4 with one spot open. The 4th spot left open is for the top lesser conference team like UCF. This allows the Utahs, Boise states, and UCFs a chance to compete in the the 4 spot of the playoffs. And it eliminates one extra game.
Zero dollars? Ha they're playing for recognition bruh it's still school ball. The money comes after graduation and a draft pick all in which your proving your state and country that your ready for.
that's the bulshit they tell you to keep you talking stupid. Mean while they are using these players and riskin these players bodies and all kind of stuff including making so much money off of them and not paying them anything for risking their bodies.
Alan White basically, top 4 teams go to the playoffs, 1 and 4 play in one game and 2 and 3 play in another, the winners of each go to the championship game, the other stuff is too complicated for me to explain
Having a committee decide this is the worst. It’s like they’re judges for a competition. This is football. Everything should be decided on the field. No committee.
It’s a rigging committee
the explanation needs explaining
In simple terms Alabama, Clemson, Ohio State, and one random team (usually Notre Dame or Oklahoma) will play depending on their rankings 1 seed plays the 4 seed and 2 seed plays 3rd winner of those games play each other （usually Bama and Clemson) winner of that win the championship
Boy, you are not kidding.
I've watched four videos so far that claim to explain the Bowl games, and still, I'm like "WTF, man?".
@@michaelhoward6076 so do the conference game not mean anything cuz those ppl pick the top 4
dont you think $0 is to much for a college player?
UhMango not at all. They have a scholarship which is just too much.

Steven Kmiecik because there is a super high chance that there will be more than 6 teams with the same record in a league with over 120 teams
don't the conferences have games to decide its champion already

Boise State has tried to get into the Pac12 4 times in the last 20 years and been denied every time. Why? Because their research rankings under the Carnegie system are too low - literally has nothing to do with sport whatsoever.
BYU has played with the half teams in the Pac12 and regularly schedules them as an independent now. They have good research standings, can they join? Nope. The PAC12 does not allow universities which focus on specific religions. So basically BYU the only Mormon college in the country would be required to no longer be a Mormon college to join? That’s ridiculous....
I feel like a rule set for the rankings would work out better than some people deciding lol
Still can't understand this sports.
They should just do bracket of 1-25 that’s why we have the top 25...plus one more team to even out...simple. It all this stupid strength of schedule crap and good wins
In other words: unfair competition. Next.
Wow this leauge is a joke lol Why not just have a huge bracket where every team plays. Chance for more upsets
They do that for march madness (basketball)
There should expand the playoffs imo but it should only go to 8 teams
god i used to be a BCS fanatic growing up when i still played the game, never really looked into the “playoffs” until now and it’s literally just as corrupt and subjective as ever. Basically if your SEC your ranked above even after taking ridiculous losses cause “strength of schedule” is so important , old heads just wanna see what they like NOT who wins out over higher ranked teams
Cant wait for that duck commander bowl....dont people learn to not put ducks as leaders?
Um no. Conference championships only get autobids when the bowls they have autobids to are available and if conference champions are in the playoff, runner ups get the bid(if available)
Why was this recommended to me in 2021...
What are some under rated bowl games to watch?
have a 64 team playoff
That’d be dope asf
Why would they rank the best 25 teams, if only 4 make it to playoffs
To let you know which teams are on the outside looking in and which ones are climbing up the rankings.
6 years ago wtf, 2021 anyone?
Yep January 14th 2021
With a better system they could work with like the nfl
lets be honest only 6 confrences have a chance
They need to re-due the playoffs and have four top team play for their division bowl game that is really close to their division)those two teams will move to the college playoffs who ever have the high rank get to be home team. And it will be a lot more simple and let the 5. And 6 teams in playoffs.
This is absolutely confusing, and a straightup cluserfuck. How anyone can even take College Football seriously is a mystery to me. The best part is the fact that some of these great athletes will get a chance with the NFL, and other Professional Football leagues. Other than that, this is completely confusing.
They ruined the Rose Bowl. Big 10 vs PAC 10/12!
I think my brain will explode
power 5 conference's should cannibalize big 12. bring in a few more teams to form 4, 20 team conferences. each team plays 2 non conference games, 9 conference games, followed by conference championship game. winner's go to playoffs. In this setup each team(in addition to a scholarship) should pay 33 of its players. 11 tier 1's get 50k, 11 tier 2's get 35k, 11 tier 3's get 20k. the other 40 players get only the scholarship. it would level the playing field, make better games, and give players money they clearly deserve. you're welcome cfb fans.
this system is too complicated
Bro just get a top 16 lmao all elimination games
Nope. Just "eye test" to determine rankings.
No, college football fans of 2014, this does not make things any better
2:01 WHY YOU HAVE TO TELL US THAT ITS LIKE YOUR TAUNTING THE PLAYERS
The top four according to the great MOOSE from USC in Los Angeles is as follows: 1) FSU 2) Oregon 3) Baylor 4) Ohio State
1) Oregon 2) Ohio State 3) TCU 4) Georgia Tech
HOW about that crappy SEC BABY? THE MOOSE told you idiots that UAT and the SEC was overrated. How does that look for you idiots now? THE DUCKS are about to show the world how tough and great the PAC 12 really is boys!! Colin Cowherd told you as well. Ohio State really put a butt whipping on the UAT TURDS did they not? WOW - A great day in the world today and the MOOSE has been vindicated. Fight on USC and go PAC 12. Congratulations to the Buckshits from Ohio State.
Is this still correct?
Well. This video took a turn.
what about the Bourbon Bowl?
00:32 Niu 👌
Dude really tried to break this down in two minutes😆 get your work ethic up homie lol
Bro I’ve been watching college my whole life and I still don’t know
how
so basically random people do an eye test to pick 4 teams, that’s all that matters. That’s a load of bullshit. They need to do top 4 teams of each conference battle it out then the champions from each conference go head to head for the trophy
I don’t understand bowl games whatsoever. I’m a huge nfl fan but I’m Canadian we don’t really do my college sports here. Like how do teams that are like .500 playing in this bowl game and then when they win they act like they won a championship. It’s confusing if someone wants to explain it.
No you got spot on bud!! Go devils rangers suck
you left out the part about the players getting $0 tuition....maybe if more players took advantage of that we'd hear about it more?
Honestly sounds like a corrupt mess. The Bowls have no impact or actual meaning, not to mention most teams are invited just because they have the bigger name. And it sounds like the all teams are picked based on how much a certain group likes a team. Why not just let the conferences have top team go into a playoff system and have a bye for the top 3 teams with the 4th team playing against the National champion of the FBC national champs. Also why to top divisions such as FBS and the FBC??????? And why isnt the FBS the same system as the FBC with top teams going to the playoffs for the national championship????? College football makes no sense and IDK why anyone follows it...
Sounds like FIFA are running the show
2011 ALABAMA VS LSU (BAMA 21 LSU 0) 2017 ALABAMA VS UGA (BAMA 26 UGA 23. SEC HAS GOT IT GOING ON.
CAUSE THE SEC IS THE BEST CONFERENCE IF THEY GOT THE 2 BEST TEAMS IN THE NATION THEY SHOULD BE PLAYING IN THE NATTY
Why would ppl follow college football???
Because it's football
is this how it works still?
Basically
Oookay.... How about 2 separare playoffs?
Why don't the power 5 teams compete for a final 4.
Ex. (Bama beats Dawgs)
Bama.
And the lesser conferences compete for a final 4
(UCF beats Memphis)
UCF.
The winner of each playoff compete for the overall Championship (Bama vs UCF) ...... That solves the UCF problem, right??? . 🤔
Or.... Top (3) ranked power 5 teams get selected into the final 4 with one spot open. The 4th spot left open is for the top lesser conference team like UCF. This allows the Utahs, Boise states, and UCFs a chance to compete in the the 4 spot of the playoffs. And it eliminates one extra game.
the power 5 conference would win 9/10 times. that is not a fun national championship
I don’t get it
This no fair good team don’t even get show there good cause they only let fucc 4 teams get in😂 then favoritism to the sec
This video didn't help😂
Zero dollars? Ha they're playing for recognition bruh it's still school ball. The money comes after graduation and a draft pick all in which your proving your state and country that your ready for.
that's the bulshit they tell you to keep you talking stupid. Mean while they are using these players and riskin these players bodies and all kind of stuff including making so much money off of them and not paying them anything for risking their bodies.
Being a Brit...I have absolutely no idea what your talking about.
Alan White basically, top 4 teams go to the playoffs, 1 and 4 play in one game and 2 and 3 play in another, the winners of each go to the championship game, the other stuff is too complicated for me to explain
They get paid now
Still incomprehensible, I am seeing bowls wiith absurd sponsors with teams around .500 competing. Makes no sense.
Thats is just BULLCR*P… so a commitee of politicians decide who is worthy to advance in the league 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🙂
Thats f*cking insane ..!!!!!
This is great.
Who else got paid $0 dollars for making Rich white men richer
Jesus is king and our savior repent of sin so you can be saved remember Christ Loves you and he’s coming soon
W
Didnt make sense.
Top 4 teams play to get a piece of metal
But the 10 conferences and the fact they are chosen instead of being good on paper is the reason why it seems so convoluted
Wow, I'm assuming Florida State was good in 2015. Mwuahaha Georgia is coming for you Alabama.
Bias much 🤔 top 4 can be super subjective.
Roll Tide. Drink Dr. Pepper.
Wut?
This seems busted and rigged.
This is one of the worst explanations I’ve ever seen. You lost me 30 seconds in.
This scheme sucks
How were people confused by this? Top 4 teams play for a title. Simple. Its the BCS with 4 teams
