I've said for years that the people who capitalize off of the controversy

that the failed system creates, have no interest in fixing it. And it just so happens that the same power players exploiting the controversy, are also the ones in charge of the system. The power brokers want to pick the winners and losers. They don't want things settled on the field, and they don't want to give real access to those who won't make them money.

Stech 12/07/25 06:48 PM ET
Mr. & Mrs. Objectivity can't get the job done
Pylons 12/07/25 11:54 PM ET
One way to look at it.**
Stech 12/08/25 07:15 AM ET
I am not mad at Miami. I am pissed at the ACC
goldendomer 12/07/25 08:16 PM ET
What did the ACC do?**
hokieZ71 12/08/25 12:33 PM ET
Why are you POed at the ACC? You aren't a member of ACC football.
EDGEMAN 12/08/25 06:23 AM ET
they want to have their cake and eat it too.**
reestuart 12/08/25 09:54 AM ET
Yeah I don't get it either. Go yell at Bama and the SEC.
mancunian 12/08/25 09:37 AM ET
You could join and win this league **
HokiesACC2004 12/08/25 05:30 AM ET
No thanks
TerryD 12/08/25 07:30 AM ET
kinda like if the ACC stumped for ND over Miami
daveinop 12/08/25 08:16 AM ET
Exactly.
RTFC 12/08/25 11:22 AM ET
Why are you mad at the ACC?**
VT ChemE 1986 12/08/25 12:24 AM ET
For not being good? Fair. So are we.
RTFC 12/07/25 09:40 PM ET
Maybe blame the league that got its 5th best team in the field
Tailgate Guru 12/07/25 09:26 PM ET
Exactly. It’s the SEC that should get the blame spotlight
HokieAl 12/08/25 09:42 AM ET
I 100% think ND should be in, but being mad at the ACC makes no sense. **
reestuart 12/07/25 09:32 PM ET
Notre Dame should be in but his anger is in the wrong place **
HokiesACC2004 12/08/25 05:30 AM ET
I have come around to believe only conference champions should get in
Tailgate Guru 12/07/25 09:56 PM ET
If conferences were small enough to have significant to total overlap
Pylons 12/07/25 10:58 PM ET
It would help break up these oversized leagues **
Tailgate Guru 12/07/25 10:59 PM ET
I’m pissed at note dame and there pathetic basketball team and fans **
AnotherTechW 12/07/25 09:16 PM ET
Why are you pissed at ACC?**
Atlee Hokie 12/07/25 09:08 PM ET
The ACC has accommodated Notre Dame in just about everything in the last
Maroon Baboon 12/08/25 12:10 AM ET
Exactly. It is nonsensical. **
reestuart 12/07/25 09:09 PM ET
Haha I am always mad at the ACC a lot as you know, Bama & 5 SEC teams is
Stech 12/07/25 08:20 PM ET
The mistake is confusing a reality television series with a “playoff”**
Tailgate Guru 12/07/25 07:35 PM ET

Maroon Baboon 12/07/25 07:54 PM ET
If it was Mississippi State rather than Alabama with the exact same resume,
Maroon Baboon 12/07/25 07:31 PM ET
Equivalent blue blood that happens to be an ABC/ESPN property. Ridiculous. **
reestuart 12/07/25 09:10 PM ET
Shocking coincidence **
Tailgate Guru 12/07/25 09:28 PM ET
They don’t even try to hide it. **
reestuart 12/07/25 09:31 PM ET
100%**
Stech 12/07/25 07:44 PM ET
Yep. Everybody that lost yesterday dropped but Alabama.
HOO86 12/07/25 07:19 PM ET
I was pretty sure Bama was moving forward, no matter the outcome.
Atlee Hokie 12/07/25 09:21 PM ET
Alabama didn't just lose, they were non-competitive. I had the OUT.
Maroon Baboon 12/07/25 07:57 PM ET
GT played UGA better than Alabama. Maybe they should have taken...
EDGEMAN 12/08/25 06:18 AM ET
If Texas AM played UGa in SEC Champ game would you still leave Bama out?**
HwoodHokie 12/07/25 08:12 PM ET
Probably not. But all games are data. And mailing in a CCG should cost ya.
Maroon Baboon 12/07/25 08:23 PM ET
That is the issue......
2hhoop3 12/08/25 09:09 AM ET
Correct. Bama should be out and Notre Dame in.
OrlandoHokie 12/07/25 06:58 PM ET
BYU was in last week. They are out this week after B12 CG.
