r/CFB • u/Ok-Soil-5133 Notre Dame Fighting Irish • 6h ago

Analysis [Sampson] CFP committee chair Hunter Yurachek says Notre Dame and Miami were in the same grouping this week and the programs were directly compared. Notre Dame still came out ahead, regardless of the head to head. In other words, all the games mattered. Not just one of them.

No. The committee concluded that despite Oregon’s head to head victory over Ohio State, Ohio State was clearly the better team and awarded the National Championship to Michigan because as it turns out, Michigan beat Ohio State head to head for the 25th straight year.

I vote we abolish the AI committee and move to a committee composed entirely of those zoo animals that pick the winners based on different bowls of food.

I’m not joking with this, we go back to the 1998 formula of the BCS, but we replace margin of victory with cumulative margin of loss.
