He was hired for his fantastic ability to look the other way, the most important attribute of a pedo state head coach.
You mean like a starting linebacker or starting cornerback?
See above. I'm not defending the guy, just curious of the details since I'm not completely aware of the whole vandy case

So any chance of a Oklahoma/Western Michigan matchup?

Eddy Jackson was a big loss. Hamilton is probably done but LB is probably the deepest position on the roster.
Clemson and to a lesser extent Washington have good shots at Bama. If you have a good passing QB (or better, dual threat and a good passer) and some good tall or fast (or both) receivers that can get open, you can score points. Ole Miss did it. Florida even managed a little with their terrible QB. Austin Allen put up good numbers too. Basically, beat Bama by beating their merely average secondary.

Late night look-in at State College on SportsCenter. I haven't seen Penn State students this riled up at night since they rioted over Joe Paterno getting fired for harboring a child rapist.
I think Auburn is more likely.
God I hate the cult there. Bunch of fucking idiots.
They're there forever unless you decapitate the football program.
There are, at least so far, fewer of them at the moment (my wife and I are examples) due to the whole Freed report and the rest of the revelations. I don't think it's strange to be able to condemn the actions of the past assholes and still support the new blood that is just there playing football and, you know, not fucking children.
I hope a lot more get on board, I still have friends that want the JoePa statue back and I just get into heated arguments with them on just how absolutely ridiculous it is.
It's nice to want things.

So who gets to host Western Michigan?

Way to fucking go Wisconsin.
Now there's a little doubt in my mind we get it. Although I still think we're in.
It'd be absolute shit to get left out by barely losing by 3 on the road to a couple of fluke kick blocks on a windy nasty night, otherwise the year was fantastic.

Hehehe. College football is about money first and foremost.
Aren't they still on NYE this year? I thought this was the year they couldn't get the Rose Bowl and Sugar Bowl to budge.
ESPN said your backups would win the sec east and compete for the sec. Dpn't give me this backup crap.
Correct.
Yeah I think it's one more year before it changes.
Oh, well if ESPN said...
The past is the past!

This will be the biggest debate in the room for the next 12 hours
I think if I was on the committee this would be a huge factor....and it gives the committee an out. My prediction--
1 Bama vs 4 Psu
2 Clemson vs 3 OSU
They will drop OSU to 3 bc of no chanpionship (which will mean nothing).
Yeah if anything the debate will be UW vs PSU, not OSU vs PSU. Not sure how that would turn out though.

Top 4 will stay the same. Only change I can see even being possible is swapping OSU and Clemson because of the conference championship, but I think that is probably a long shot because of Clemson not winning decisively last night.
Here's something for the committee to consider: Alabama is going to only have 2 scholarship quarterbacks for the playoffs; one of whom has, I don't think, ever taken a snap in a game. Cooper Bateman is transferring. http://www.al.com/alabamafootball/index.ssf/2016/12/alabama_backup_qb_plans_to_tra.html

ACC isn't weak, Clemson's signature W is beating a top 12 FSU on the road, and Pitt is a top 25 team.
No.

Yes, the ESPN Playoff selection show is *four* hours long. But the top 4 is around 12:30 ET, with the top 25 around 2:30 ET.

Is the goal of the AP voters to predict the committee rankings now?
ESPN continuing to ruin the CFP. The only reason we have rankings before this week is so that they have their weekly shows about it and discussion fodder.
That is fucking ridiculous.
