Nicole Auerbach @nauerbach.com · 21/12/2024What you do before Selection Sunday determines whether you deserve to be in the bracket or not. What happens after is not some sort of referendum on that decision. I don't know why people overreact to postseason blowouts every single year like this. 2531332

Ryan Pry @rypryfryguy.bsky.social · 21/12/2024Georgia beat TCU 65-7 two years ago. This is not that. People overreact to everything. 030
Taylor @taylorwfuga.bsky.social · 21/12/2024people are caught off guard by how poor the B1G is when they play teams with NFL talent. Happens every year. 010
Eric @ecnyg.bsky.social · 21/12/2024Expand to 16, reseed, u avoid having teams that could have had a better showing or were rising not being left out. More games more 💰 programs will be needing it. Bama misses out and begs fans to chip in? At least fandom in pros you don't have the coach suggesting fans to pay for more nil..🏈♥️🏉 100
bamelton.bsky.social @bamelton.bsky.social · 21/12/2024Indiana deserved to be there, it's not their fault Miami, Ole Miss and Alabama all lost games they shouldn't have. 010
Thorpe Langton @mspdawg.bsky.social · 21/12/2024I dunno, this feels like solid confirmation that IU feasted on the dregs of a 2.5-team conference and lacks the physicality and talent to compete with good teams. 150
Mossback @excan.bsky.social · 21/12/2024We can acknowledge that given the construct we have that they might as well have been in but that the construct is broken 000
John Collet @johnjcollet.bsky.social · 21/12/2024Yes. In regular season, teams get in a rhythm. In playoffs anything can happen and a lot of good coaches don't know how to change game plan in middle of the game. Look at Marv Levy losing 4 Super Bowls. 000
bpit17.bsky.social @bpit17.bsky.social · 21/12/2024I get it, but IU is so clearly not one of the best 12. Unfortunate. 010
DCTrojanLA @dctrojanla.bsky.social · 21/12/2024This will happen every year as you go further down into the bottom of the barrel. Don’t hate it. Just get used to it. 000
Amanda Mull @amandamull.bsky.social · 21/12/2024People were even arguing this about TCU when they got blown out in the natty, even though they…won their semifinal?? It’s such an unserious line of thinking. 5732
Comehaveabagel @comehaveabagel.bsky.social · 21/12/2024It's almost like half of the 4 team playoff games were blowouts too, and shouldn't be a referendum on the system. Sometimes we get all timers, sometimes we get blowouts, it's just how it goes 000
Fast-casual shrimp enjoyer @bartdogfuck.bsky.social · 21/12/2024They didn’t do anything. They didn’t beat anybody. 120
juan @ecuamerican.bsky.social · 21/12/2024Exactly. A good team shooting themselves in the foot is not new. This occurs in all levels. It happens and it should be ok 000
NEIANEMN @neianemn.bsky.social · 21/12/2024It will probably happen several more times yet this season, with a few good games mixed in 010
Dana M @dana-m.bsky.social · 21/12/2024I think just about everyone felt Indiana should be in the playoffs. I also think the current score is pretty much what most people expected. 010
Barto ☮️ @bartodad.bsky.social · 21/12/2024Tried to tell people all year long that Indiana was nothing more than smoke and mirrors and arrogance. 000
Thomsen419 @thomsen419.bsky.social · 21/12/2024When you get rolled by the only two good teams you played you deserve to be exposed as the frauds you are. 010
Jeremy @jlhanke28.bsky.social · 21/12/2024Agreed. If anything, it's a referendum on the format. 8 is the right number. Rarely do 10 teams deserve a natty. Ideally go back to smaller conferences - 10 teams each, play everybody, champ gets in and a few at large bids. It ain't happening cuz 💵💰talks, but that would be the "best " solution. 000
Jim Mayer @jmayday.bsky.social · 21/12/2024Vegas said this whole weekend was going to be a blow out. No judgement and I will be watching. 000
Thomas @gobluethomas.bsky.social · 21/12/2024Regardless of schedule, if a team goes 11-1 in the Big Ten, SEC, ACC, or Big 12, you are in the 12 team playoff. Full stop 140
