IU did not deserve to be in CFP. Great article by USA Today

Step 1: Purdue posters start (another) thread about IU Football
Step 2: Fill it with bad takes, hot takes, and contrary-to-fact takes
Step 4: Get bludgeoned by actual facts
Step 5: BBG and Riveting embarrass the Purdue fan base with ad hominem, third grade insults
Step 6: BBG and Riveting melt like sad snowflakes: "Why did Indinidiia think we care about them?"

Step 1: Indinia fans spend their holiday on a Purdue forum
Step 2: Fill threads begging for our approval and acceptance
Step 3 (you couldn't even type this list right): Get mercilessly mocked and not smart enough to see it
Step 4: Katscratch makes another weak post while still begging for our approval.
Step 5: He then rinses and repeats on another account.

It's no surprise though that you can't even count correctly and failed in hysterical fashion. You just can't make this stuff up. You Indinia fans are good for at least giving us ton of ammunition to mock you over.

For the record counting goes like this: 1.......2.......... 3.......... THEN 4.

Thanks for the laughs. You imploded better than I had hoped but I have to go now. But after this, there isn't much left to say.

Wow! The numbers/counting police on the message has spoken. What’s next, are you going to post about how smart you are when the next person makes a grammar mistake or spells a word incorrectly? As a compliment to your buddy, Riveting stuff from you.

So now BBG is posting in a thread about Indiana Football to say “ I know you are, but what am I?”

Followed by a Riveting third grade insult.

This is awesome.

Let’s get back on topic!

I can count to 11-2.
I can count to 8-1.
I can count to ten-seed in the CFP and absolutely deserving of it.

For all of you SEC apologists, that Michigan team that IU beat? They just finished off their win against Alabama.

For all of you "IU didn't have any good wins" tunnel-vision-aries?
Michigan's last four games of the year were:
  • Win over Alabama - neutral site,
  • Win at OSU,
  • Win 50-6 home against NW, and
  • Loss to the Indiana Hoosiers.
Seems like Michigan was a pretty good win for IU.

Immature? Indeed. Riveting is synonymous for immature.

The interesting thing is, the other posters here, even the ones that get unnecessarily spun up like BBG, actually are fans of and post about Purdue sports. But Riveting? He rarely if ever posts about Purdue; he’s only active when he sees a chance to name call or insult.

Riveting is “special.”

You are trying to find a loop hole pertaining to IU and the CFP. You know IU should have never been there. I'm going to guess they'll be major changes that this doesn't happen again in the future.

IU had 1 won against a top 7 B1G team and beat a bunch of bottom dweller's....... Purdue included. If you believe the bottom half of the B1G is that good then that's your opinion, but it's clearly blinded with Crimson glasses.

You played 2 ranked teams and got dog walked in both....CFP worthy🤣🤣.... facts!!

Okay … I’ll bite:

IU was the 9th highest rated team and the ten seed. They lost by ten.
The 11 seed SMU lost by 28.
The 12 seed Clemson lost by 14 and it was never close by halftime.

It’s a 12 team playoff…
Who are your three teams who should have been in over SMU, IU, and Clemson?

Or are you going to be that guy who says they should cancel the playoffs because there are more slots than you personally wanted?

Stop saying indiana lost by 10. They scored 14 points against some backup players playing a prevent defense on the final 90 seconds. It was a 24 point gsme and a blowout. Just accept it and move on

A Purdue grad is stating that we should flat out ignore the objective numerical data? You really think that ND was playing backup players when IU cut it to ten and had a two point conversion pending and a minute left? You are flat out inaccurate.

It was 27-17. I’ll even give you a link as proof:


And back to my question; name those three teams that you think were more deserving than IU, SMU, and Clemson (and while you’re at it, name a 4th for Az St, who is also ranked below IU in the CFP).

Name them!

Pretty pathetic at 11:57 you posted on a Purdue forum…. And then edited it.

Why you so obsessed lol. Like herbstreit said there is deserving (iu did deserve it) and then there is the better teams. I’m not convinced indiana is not better than other teams not in the playoffs, maybe I’ll feel different if ND smokes Georgia tomorrow. 99% of Indiana friends I know acknowledge it was a fun season and they are able to enjoy the ride of a fortuitous schedule. It’s you 1% that can’t accept the he unbiased and factual stats that show you weren’t that great and spending NYE here for inexplicable reasons.

I think this proves what I've been saying all along. 12 is too many. IU proved they didn't belong against Notre Dame. As did Tennessee. As did SMU. As has Alabama and South Carolina. Cut it back to 8. Power conference champions, top g5 champ, and a few at large. No more than one at large from any conference. Should have been the following.

Oregon
Georgia
Clemson
Arizona State
Boise State
Ohio State
Texas
Notre Dame

Would suck for Penn State but they lost to Ohio State and Oregon both so they did not deserve to get in as a 3rd place Big Ten team. This would eliminate so much unnecessary and generally bad football we've seen to date in these playoffs. Clemson and Boise might still get smoked but as conference champs they earned their way in. As we've seen, you can't just assume any conference deserves 3-4 teams because of their track record in prior years.

Could this be a new obsession for you for the new year, moving ahead of your severe TDS?

Here are two new year's resolutions for you.

- Learn to count to 10.
- Gain approval as a clownpants wearing IU fan from the Purdue forum.

I think with a lot of hard work and repetition you can conquer the first.

IU was ranked #8 by the CFP committee in the final poll and the committee had all of the factual and unbiased metrics at their disposal to determine their final rankings. #8 IU was humbled by #6 Ohio State and #5 Notre Dame…IU is clearly not at their level. #7 Tennessee was also humbled by #6 Ohio State. Maybe the top 6 teams in the final rankings by the CFP rankings are the only great teams for this year. Regardless, IU proved to be a really good football team this year and their final ranking of #8 by the CFP before the tournament started is looking to be pretty accurate.

A post from you about the college football playoffs? Or even an off topic post about Purdue sports? Or any sports? Nope -that never happens from you. Almost everyone gets salty now and then but you? Never substance— always off topic.

——————————————————-
So for me? It is currently a 12 team playoff and clearly the bottom four were beaten soundly (and similarly).

In the current 12 team format an 11-1 team from the second best conference, and one with no marquee wins but no bad losses is in every single time.

If you think the playoffs should be contracted? Sure; that’s a legit point of view, but you’re probably going to be disappointed because they’re far more likely to expand the CFP to 16 teams than contract it.

Swap Penn St and Ohio State in the 8 team playoff. PSU finished second in the BIG, played in the championship game.

Never? There are several in this very thread about strength of schedule not being factored in sufficiently by the selection committee.

Is your new obsession completely destroying what little reasoning ability you have left after the ravages of TDS?

Ohio State beat Penn State at Penn State if I'm not mistaken. However if it was determined that Penn State was the #2 team in the Big Ten then put them in over Ohio State. The playoffs should not have to take 3-4 teams per conference just because the conferences are too big to legitimately determine their best teams during the season.

The conferences have all been too big to determine that since they stopped playing each conference team, whenever that was.

The current playoff is clearly unfair to Oregon and tosu, having to play each other and then likely the winner plays Texas. Somehow Penn State got the easy sub-bracket and will likely be in the final game without being seriously challenged since ND is overrated and Ga. has lost its qb.
 
When the BT and SEC expand again sometime in the future, the CFP using strength of schedule is going to have to be a bigger factor in the equation.

I don’t know who you are but using 5-0 is truly ironic arguing about indiana football being good when historically they were the worst program in P5 history and your name mocks Purdue for winning 5 championships before your lifetime when Purdue has dominated indiana in recent history.

Anyways i continue to say indiana deserved to play in the playoffs. I don’t think they were the best 12 teams. Im not even sure they were the 4th best team in the big ten, if they play Michigan in Ann Arbor do they win that game? How about Illinois, wisconsin, Iowa, or even Minnesota? We will never know as they didn’t play each other and not enough body of work. But the CFP selection process this year I agree they deserved to get in and also agree there is a huge drop off after 6 teams.

What we do know and is relevant to these conversations is it has been widely reported they would see how it went this year and make changes. And with the reactions we are seeing I do expect we will see some changes. Tv ratings were favorable so I don’t expect we will see a reduction in games. Maybe less byes for automatic qualifiers and you out the best teams regardless of AQs so the first round of games are more evenly matched up and the clear bear get the byes. So Penn state and Texas get byes and in indianas case they probably play noise state in the first round and make that more exciting. Or get rid of AQs. Or they use quad games like in basketball. Not sure if that eliminates indiana still in the case for this year.
