Win a Power Five regular season.
Win a Power Five championship. And in that game, only give up 6 points on defense to a top 10 team.
Beat everyone put in front of you.
It makes a joke out of the Five Conferences model when perfection isn’t good enough to get you in the top four.
And all under the auspice of Bama Michigan would be a more exciting game (and profitable to advertisers).
I don’t give two Chits whether Michigan is favored by 22 points against them.
Why did Michigan (a 23.5 favorite) even play Iowa this weekend? Because the Big Ten East and West had to play each other? Iowa (who lost 2 games) could be crowned the Big Ten champ, but a true, undefeated conference winner and champion isn’t allowed in the four team tournament.
Oh. And the ACC had a better record against the SEC this year as well.
Tell me a team working with a third string QB, with the extra pressure of the defense being born the field much of the game and only giving up six points?
How many times did Bama hold an opponent to six or fewer points this year? Once. Beating South Florida 17-3.
In the end, the victories weren’t pretty enough.
It’s bullchit.
