Are We Really Gonna Let the CFP Off The Hook Just Because The Trophy Is Cool?

OK CFP, i'll give you this one. It's not a bad trophy. In fact, it's probably just as good as the crystal ball. But this hunk of metal is not enough to fill the hole left by 14 days of the best college football ever aka bowl week. Seriously I still can't wrap my head around the fact that people actually got behind the new playoff system. The only thing that changes now is that instead of being able to watch two weeks of bowl games we only get 6. And everything people complained about is still exactly the same. Think about it, idiots. The only controversy there ever was every year in the BCS was over the positioning of the top 3 or 4 teams. Well guess what, that's still decided by a group of "experts" based on the same factors that it was within the BCS. It's not like all of a sudden because there are 4 teams selected to a playoff that everything's gonna be perfect. Now you'll just here about how the 5th place team got screwed instead of the 3rd place team like usual. There's no way i'm the only person that's pissed off about this right? I mean if you're team is from any conference besides the SEC I have to believe this doesn't even matter to you because you've never been anywhere close to a national championship for the last decade. What are the other conferences even doing now that there aren't a bunch of meaningless bowls for them to be in.? You know the one's they're happy to be in "for the exposure"? Calm down BIG10, you had your time. No one wants to watch Michigan play Wisconsin in a power-run-off. If people really wanted to watch only the best teams play for the national title, they'd just give it to the SEC champs and call it a day. People like to watch bowl games. It's the only way you can make a game with a Sun Belt team in it mean something. And there's something really great about that. Because no matter how bad the teams are, it's still a bowl game. People care. So cool trophy, CFP. Ya fucked up.


PS: Do you think they used a mold of Saban's hand for the trophy so it'd be easier for him to lift? Probably right? #rolltide
