As little as I care about this year’s CFP, the media coverage is pretty ubiquitous and it’s hard to completely avoid.
I was out in my car doing business yesterday, and as worthless as listening to the Alabama Notre Dame game was, it was the least worthless thing on the radio at the time.
The talking heads are gabbing about how Brian Kelly continues to get his Notre Dame into the CFP and get clobbered, because they ultimately have to play Alabama or Clemson or Ohio State, who pretty much always clobber everyone in front of them, including unfortunately for us on this board, Michigan.
In a parallel universe where it was Notre Dame playing Ohio State at the end of every recent season instead of Michigan, it would probably be Michigan getting into the CFP and being clobbered by Alabama, Clemson or Ohio State.
This is one of the main reasons I’m still pretty supportive of Harbaugh – looking at the way Michigan has crushed Notre Dame recently, it could be argued that Michigan is the best of or at least as good as everyone who isn’t Alabama Clemson or Ohio State - the teams that have to play Alabama or Clemson at the end of every season also generally don’t get into the CFP.
The whole Dabo Swinney soap opera is also kind of amusing. Right when I realize the Clemson Ohio State game would be ending yesterday, I decided “what the hell” and caught the end of it.
I never paid much attention but today I’m realizing just how disliked Dabo Swinney is by a lot of the talking heads.
Never paid much attention to him before but he does seem to be kind of a dumb ass. He said he ranked Ohio State #11 became he didn’t think a team with less than nine games should be ranked in the top 10. With that logic, why should a team with less than nine games played be ranked at all? I get setting the bar, and hatred for OSU notwithstanding, if the B1G failed to get an entrant into the CFP because of its colossal scheduling screw up I would say the conference kind of deserved it, but Dabo was a dumbshit to shit talk a team his team was about to play.
