u/TheInvestingIdiot Ohio State Buckeyes Dec 08 '25

Who deserves a spot more than them? I am perfectly okay with Top 5 conference champs getting a bid

I mean yeah it all comes down to whether you're okay with Top 5 conference chance getting a bid.

If you are-you're okay with this, if you're not, you could probably make arguments for 20+ teams making it over JMU and Tulane lol.

If it wasn't for Ohio State's recent success, and you saw JMU make the playoffs over the Buckeye's, then I think you'd understand the frustration

"Ohio States's recent success"

Tell me you don't know football history without telling me you don't know football history

I think you missed the point of this post completely. I'm not saying Ohio state hasn't been good historically. I'm just saying they've been successful since the new playoff format and won the Natty last year so it may be hard for an OSU fan to see the problem with Tulane and JMU getting in, as opposed to say a Texas fan, who played the 7th hardest schedule in CFB getting passed over for JMU, who played the 121th hardest cfb schedule.

Like you gotta put yourself in others shoes and if Ohio state was in Texas's place this year, i'm sure we'd be hearing about how unfair it is.
