Whenever the Rose bowl isn't in the playoffs the first two left out should always play in the rose unless they're in the same conference. So it should be Georgia vs Ohio State but Ohio State gets another easy bowl win and Georgia will destroy Texas smh. They gotta start matching up the NY6 bowls better

[payner]

Notre dame plays no one isnt in a conference hasnt won since 1988 and yet they go

[DW-ylww]

1. ALABAMA
2. CLEMSON
3. OKLAHOMA
4. OHIO STATE
5. NOTRE DAME
6. GEORGIA

Buckeye, Nation, knows, We couldnt, ask for a better season, , Bucks, your no.1 in our hearts....

[marcosandoval]

There needs to be a better playoff system in college. For example a top 8 ranked team playoff

[lanyu]

listen to what coach meyer said
don't lose then you control your own destiny
i think he learned from those couple of bad losses
i really wish coach meyer will add a couple of more national championship rings with buckeyes
and he will have to look back and find the real issues and he has the mind to fix them
hopefully sooner rather than later
thanks to buckeyes and thanks to coach meyer
let's win the rose bowl, finish this year strong and look forward to the years to come.

Just want to start by saying God loves each and every one of you. He has an awesome plan for you. And as for OSU I wish they were in the cfp but thats a door slammed shut. Like many are saying they need to expand the playoff format.

[easyL]

I would love to see a 6 team playoffs, that would be more fair 4 just isn't enough when 4, 5, and 6 are so even

[dhaynes]

They got the top 4 right. but I would love it better if it's the top 8. I would love to see how UCF matches up with the big boys

[nickcollins]

Dude they just pulled up Ohio’s state resume and said we were 3-0 against ranked teams this year last time I check Michigan M state TCU and Nortwestern and penn state were all ranked and if my math is correct that is 5 not 3

The 1st playoff, Ohio State lost to VA Tech, also unranked, ended up in 4th place then beat Alabama and Oregon or did most of you forget that. Ohio State should be 4th, not 6th. The Committee is BIAS TO THE SEC, GEORGIA DROPOING 1 PLACE AFTER A LOSS?! B-I-A-S

[ozonethegreat]

Think if anything this year shows that they need to expand the playoffs. You got a non-conference team in ND in the top 4. It shows that the conference championships are not really worth it to the committee. Chop off the CC and make that a playoff round 1.

[DW-ylww]

ND STINKS. BEAT PITT BY 5. CLEMSON DESTROYED PITT. ND BEAT NW BY 10 MI BY 7. OHIO STATE TRIPLED THAT.

*GOOD*

Y'all needed this reality check

[geraldmunoz]

I really don’t understand how the college system works for playoffs. Can someone please explain?

[josephgibbons]

I'd like to see the winner of each college conference go to a playoff round

[spikebaddachino]

6th. Not 4th or even 5th.
29 point loss to a 6-6 team will do that to your team.

[kennethbutterfield]

Sooner fan here Buckeyes should be in over Notre Lame

[rm]

Nice effort here, but he's devastated. He knows it's playoff or bust and Rose Bowl doesn't mean what it once did.

[tjadams]

that fake ass smile Urban put on at the beginning when he asked him about playing in the rose bowl instead of the playoffs 🤣
