Had we had an 8 team playoff, it would have included: Oklahoma
Florida
USC
Texas
Alabama
Utah
Penn State
Texas Tech


Texas Tech just lost to Ole Miss. They should not have been in any playoff picture.

The TT QB has thrown more TD passes this year than any QB in history. They had some offense.

If we’re gonna do this right, those conference championships need to count for something. If you don’t win your title game, you don’t get a seed in the national playoffs.

Big 10 and PAC-10 add conference championship games or they can keep playing each other in meaningless Rose Bowls and we’ll throw in a pair of at-large seeds. (This year would have been Texas and Alabama)

Oklahoma - BYE
Florida - BYE
USC - BYE
Utah - BYE

Troy v. Penn State - winner plays Utah
East Carolina v. Boise State - winner plays USC
Navy v. Cincinnati - winner plays Florida
Ball State v. Georgia Tech - winner plays Oklahoma

Cinderella stories, upsets and dynasties all waiting to happen...

In retrospect, you're correct, although I am an erstwhile Tech fan. Ole Miss impressed me--they didn't just win, they dominated, after the first 2 minutes or so. How about having them replace Penn State in the playoffs?
