    Did the committee get it right?

    Probably

    but these aren’t the 4 best teams

    I think they should let Georgia play Alabama until they beat them, no matter how many times it takes

    Maybe if they had a 40 pt 2nd half lead they wouldn't gag it away, although that is debatable

    Can't have Georgia in it. No matter how you slice it they would have played Bama again.

    Bama is not scoring at will anymore like they were at the beginning of the season. Oklahoma nearly put up a 50 spot on Georgia in the playoffs last year. Much more than Bama put up on Georgia in either game.

    people tried comparing uga/lsu and bama/lsu that line of thinking doesnt work. bama will dominate this game youll see, its about timing much of the time

    Throw the very game they scheduled that could have easily knocked them out of playoff race after week 1. Okay...

    They scheduled a tough game, they should be rewarded for that, not flippantly tossing it out. These types of games save college football in September, otherwise it’s a just don’t lose type of scheduling for all good teams

    No
    Just as a lot of the "nobody wants to see another matchup of Bama vs Georgia" .
    That's exactly the wrong reason, it should be irrelevant , 4 best period .
    There's numerous matchups in all sports with teams already having played but they did create conversation , Georgia behind 1 conference champ yet in from of another .
    Seems Ohio State was really never even in the thought process in all this ?

    no telling when game was scheduled, if 4 years ago then neither had nothing to lose. Im just saying 1st games of the season dont mean that much, havent jelled at all everything new, mistakes. they should play cupcake 1st game of season then the big ooc games during the 2nd week.

    before yesterday people couldnt get uga loss to lsu out of their mind now just because they had bama on the ropes their mind changes they still lost and because of their own doing a top 4 team shouldnt have lost that besides they just match up well with bama dont forget tua banged up some pregame which is why he was moving around in the pocket like he normally does he was just stationary holding the ball too long trying to make plays and getting hit, hurts movement saved the day though

    Alabama line moving down. Assuming Tua is ok, this may be the play of the year for me.

    Part of me thinks ND hangs with Clemson. Still not sure how good Clemson really is. Best team they’ve played is Boston College. How could you know?

    Georgia beat both Notre Dame and Oklahoma last year. And they would be favored by a touchdown this year if they play again. This tells you that not the best 4 teams made the playoff. The ones who scheduled easy schedules like Notre Dame did.

    I can see dame hanging on in that one too, they have some lengthy athletes on both sides of the ball. people forget clemson should have and almost lost to cuse. I know qb got injured in that one. dame prob match up ok with them in the open field trenches might be another thing

    Please tell me you are not suggesting uga scheduled tough opponents? They play tough games in conf but the games they scheduled were pathetic.

    Lol
    They shouldn't even play any games during the year
    Just have Vegas determine the top 4 by who would be favored over who

    Yes. Georgia had their chance to get into the playoff by either not choking vs Bama and their backup QB, or beating a mediocre LSU team. They couldn’t do either. F them

    Without question the 4 teams that earned it. Oklahoma resume' beat all other 120 or so teams who were vying for the 4th spot. Hands down

    How many times has a number 2 beaten #1 ? More times than not. So the team the coaches and media polls thought was the better team, actually lost more than half The time. The teams that u think are better than Oklahoma, probably are not. It's just your opinion. U know what they say about opinions.....
