First two games were fun. Bama @ Oklahoma and Miami @ A&M. The G5 games aren’t fun though. They just don’t have the talent to compete.
Also 1-0 on the road.
Yeah, '06 Boise State and OU aren't walking through the CFP door together.
The 2 teams that got in ahead of ND are going to lose by a combined 50+ pts in games over in the first half, is that really enjoyable for anyone?
Ore or Ole Miss vs ND would be an infinitely more enjoyable game, even for rooting against ND.
Perhaps, but Notre Dame's exclusion allowed for a very entertaining Domer hissy which kept us amused during the lull in games. I'm good with the status quo.
Sorry, likely 70+ points. I'd say UT and BYU would've been more enjoyable as well.
...but boy ND not being in makes the bad football more enjoyable.
It's not really any better next year(assuming a similar scenario).
There'd be a 8-5 ACC champion still.
They would have been in as a conference champ. If only....

Those two were automatic qualifiers, so would need a rule change to get more P4 teams in.
The big benefit of allowing G5 teams in the playoff is it allows them to recruit with a chance to play in it. If you don’t allow G5 teams in, it’s the destruction of those leagues.
One G5 being in is fine with me. Two is catastrophic to the sport.
What is your point? That beating out ODU & Troy makes this 2nd 30+ pt loss better football?
As a fan I do not think trading watching really bad football for a 1% chance that a team can catch up talent wise is worthwhile, and judging by the rule change specific to ND next year, no one else in CFB really does either.
JMUs league is pilaged by P4 teams for staff and players every year. If there was really a desire for competitiveness they would start by trying to balance that.

Tulane and JMU in the CFP is as dumb as the NFL putting a practice squad in playoffs. BYU and ND would have been way better opponents.
The next round looks like a great set of games.
Yet, their PR Spin team will remind you how difficult their schedules are...
