And this is my reason for not being a fan of the College Football playoff expansion. TCU had no chance in that game. Granted not many would but if they go to 8, there will be many uneven match ups.
This is an absolutely flawed way of thinking. NFL and college football are not even close to the same thing. College football is very regional and so many teams don't ever play each other. The fact TCU was a 4 seed based on their arbitrary ratings when they weren't even a top 10 team shows how bad they need expansion. TCU would have been disposed of early in the playoffs.

USC, Utah, Oregon, Clemson, Bama, LSU, Tennessee all were better than TCU and that is just off the top of my head. There would be more.

Bama absolutely was better than TCU but we have these rules in place where the committee was forced to pick TCU because they won their terrible conference. Imagine the NFL working like this and not letting it play on the field. Every other division of football at every level has a true playoffs in place except the FBS.

Yes, a chance to score but never a chance to actually win. Buffalo is much better than Miami no matter who their QB was. Tua and their offense was never going to keep up with Buffalo, who was going to be scoring a lot.
you do know they split this year? combined score in 2 games was 51-50.

White is a great corner but he is not healthy from his knee surgery and doesn't run as well as he used to. Not a big deal today but next week vs the bengals he is not going to be able to recover with the wr group the bengals have. I hope hyde is ready to play next week.

Makes you wonder how Michigan lost that game

Have y'all actually seen these teams play each other? Both meetings this year was decided by 3 points. It would be close with Tua playing.

Oregon is overrated
