How many....

national championships does that illustrious group have in the last 23 years? How many playoff appearances where they were actually competitive? Do they even have half as many as the SEC West?

Why wouldn't the FBS Conferences vote for a Conf Champ Auto bid? Except SEC
Stech • 08/02/22 07:21 AM ET
My understanding is that the votes are
Sunsetunderground • 08/02/22 05:05 PM ET
Each Conference and Notre Dame get 1 vote, so how is that possible?**
Stech • 08/02/22 06:50 PM ET
The SEC Plan had AQ's but The Alliance voted it down. The ACC/PAC may well
133193Hokie • 08/02/22 01:21 PM ET
Link that, because I have never seen where they supported Auto bids, and
Stech • 08/02/22 01:29 PM ET
There are lots of articles out there - just google and you will find**
133193Hokie • 08/02/22 06:59 PM ET
Yes - of course they dont want anything to do with AQs now. Like I said
133193Hokie • 08/02/22 05:55 PM ET
Selfish acts breed selfish acts, The SEC & the B1G have to deal with that.**
Stech • 08/02/22 06:57 PM ET
They are not being selfish. They are doing what is best for their
133193Hokie • 08/02/22 07:02 PM ET
You are making it more palatable, but yeah, it's being selfish. That's not
Stech • 08/03/22 02:04 PM ET
You do know that one of the P2 does not consist of any southern teams,
133193Hokie • 08/03/22 04:39 PM ET
Deep South check, Mid-West check, the rest is slim to none Now if the P2
Stech • 08/03/22 05:02 PM ET
Absolutely agree! Why the hate for B1G and SEC? They acted appropriately.
BBBDatVT_ • 08/03/22 11:31 AM ET
Auto bids for top six confs actually. Plus byes for the top four confs
Truthahn • 08/02/22 01:54 PM ET
The ACC has no leverage to "insist" on anything at this point....**
133193Hokie • 08/02/22 05:56 PM ET
They do if 5 Conferences join them. They do that & they have all the votes
Stech • 08/02/22 06:59 PM ET
Cool - all the other conferences can do what they want. Meanwhile the SEC
133193Hokie • 08/02/22 07:05 PM ET
Yeah, but not an auto bid for all 10 Conferences, that’s a huge difference.**
Stech • 08/02/22 02:12 PM ET
Yes, not all 10. That would be crazy talk.
Truthahn • 08/02/22 02:31 PM ET
That's what happens when you try to take all the playoff spots and money.
Stech • 08/02/22 06:47 PM ET
I don't think the ACC rejected it because of the auto bid provision. They
Maroon Baboon • 08/02/22 10:54 AM ET
Yeah all this revisionist history
Vippie1 • 08/02/22 05:48 PM ET
Why I'm not all that interested in these playoff numbers. ACC's been toast.
BBBDatVT_ • 08/03/22 11:35 AM ET
None of the these people saying "Yeah, we should have taken the deal"
Maroon Baboon • 08/02/22 06:05 PM ET
Wait and stand firm on Conference Champions.
HOO86 • 08/02/22 07:57 AM ET
Why wait? Whatever we want, propose it for next year. Take the upper hand.
Truthahn • 08/02/22 02:53 PM ET
Until 2025 it has to be unanimous, he's just saying if you can't get that
Stech • 08/02/22 07:09 PM ET
If I am SEC/B1G - i am tickled pink to leave it at (4) at this point.
133193Hokie • 08/02/22 01:33 PM ET
The SEC and The B1G are thinking waaaay bigger than this.
33laszlo99 • 08/02/22 03:12 PM ET
The SEC and BIG are going to be the Equivalent to the NFC and AFC. They
133193Hokie • 08/02/22 06:00 PM ET
They are....
2hhoop3 • 08/03/22 04:35 PM ET
I disagree about the Big 10
Truthahn • 08/02/22 01:36 PM ET
This! If B1G and SEC want to regress... so be it
gman86 • 08/02/22 10:03 AM ET
I think the B10 would break
Truthahn • 08/02/22 01:40 PM ET
If it gets too lopsided this is the only way IMO. Break up the LIV playoffs
Truthahn • 08/02/22 01:35 PM ET
This would be so cool. Just ignore the BIG and SEC. **
Hokester • 08/02/22 12:38 PM ET
The SEC/B1G champ would be viewed as the real national champion
Maroon Baboon • 08/02/22 12:55 PM ET
If they break away and leave schools like VT behind, they will lose people.
Stech • 08/02/22 01:09 PM ET
Already tuned it out in 2022
HOO86 • 08/02/22 07:58 PM ET
Cause you and Stech's dream of ND and Texas saving the ACC never came true.
BBBDatVT_ • 08/03/22 03:59 PM ET
Thanks Rama, another name, another flame!!**
Stech • 08/03/22 04:04 PM ET
Dude, you've attacked more people on this board than anyone.
BBBDatVT_ • 08/03/22 04:11 PM ET
Making stuff again, I have 13,498 LIkes and have never been banned.
Stech • 08/03/22 04:26 PM ET
U been SO wrong for SO long, but this is legit. OSU-Michigan loses ratings.
BBBDatVT_ • 08/02/22 01:28 PM ET
Too bad the B10 did not stick to the Alliance.
Truthahn • 08/02/22 01:49 PM ET
IF the ACC EVER thought the B1G was friends, they were idiots.
BBBDatVT_ • 08/02/22 01:58 PM ET
How was the ACC the Big Ten's friend if it was secretly trying....
TerryD • 08/03/22 12:03 PM ET
College Football is professional football w/o a Commissioner & Rules, so
Stech • 08/03/22 01:09 PM ET
But it was actually in their self interest, IMO.
Truthahn • 08/02/22 02:59 PM ET
All true.
HOO86 • 08/02/22 09:36 PM ET
Wrong...as usual. Plenty of quality programs in this new B1G. they can win.
BBBDatVT_ • 08/03/22 03:56 PM ET
How many.... ◄
2hhoop3 • 08/03/22 04:09 PM ET
You meant to post, half as many as Bama? Saban's the difference here.
BBBDatVT_ • 08/03/22 04:23 PM ET
Thanks for making my point.......
2hhoop3 • 08/03/22 04:44 PM ET
Proved that plenty of schools outside of the SEC have done it.
BBBDatVT_ • 08/04/22 08:23 AM ET
You did prove.....
2hhoop3 • 08/04/22 10:00 AM ET
Definitely; but I doubt a CFP decision will precede D1 structural decisions
daveinop • 08/02/22 08:47 AM ET
I could see G5 agreeing with 2 guaranteed spots
HokieAl • 08/02/22 11:01 AM ET
The G5s could earn more spots as at-large, but will they though? If each
VTHokie2000 • 08/02/22 11:36 AM ET
Good point
33laszlo99 • 08/02/22 12:47 PM ET
This is where it gets interesting
HokieAl • 08/02/22 12:39 PM ET
WRT BYU, I believe all the P5 conferences considered BYU to be a P5
VTHokie2000 • 08/02/22 02:06 PM ET
I agree that using all at large makes the most sense
HokieAl • 08/02/22 02:24 PM ET
Even if the Playoff opts to give "automatic bids" to the Top 6 conference
VTHokie2000 • 08/02/22 02:42 PM ET
The G5 has 5 votes, all they need is one more Conf to vote Automatic bid 4
Stech • 08/02/22 11:41 AM ET
B12, ACC, and PAC should join up with that
Truthahn • 08/03/22 01:40 PM ET
If I understand.....
2hhoop3 • 08/02/22 11:55 AM ET
The G5 won’t be a united block
HokieAl • 08/02/22 12:45 PM ET
You could be.....
2hhoop3 • 08/02/22 01:39 PM ET
In your opinion, not mine WADR.**
Stech • 08/02/22 12:49 PM ET
Of course. It’s all just speculation and opinions. **
HokieAl • 08/02/22 12:53 PM ET
I understand that point of view, but I can't see them voting against
Stech • 08/02/22 01:04 PM ET
Because the risk is that G5 gets nothing
HokieAl • 08/02/22 07:01 PM ET
That's the way I see it too, but I am trying to see if I missed anything.
Stech • 08/02/22 12:30 PM ET
Concur with that.....
2hhoop3 • 08/02/22 12:46 PM ET
If this isn't a sign the world is ending, not sure what is, we agree! -:)
Stech • 08/02/22 01:24 PM ET
Question is not what you think it should be, it's who has the most votes.
Stech • 08/02/22 11:36 AM ET
