Personally, I didn't want to see Clemson wax us 31-0 for a second year in a row, so I'm just as happy to avoid the CFP. Not mention the optics of getting selected two years in a row for the exact opposite reasons. Even I can't defend that.

UCF got rewarded for their great season by losing their coach. I suspect that means they will also get waxed in the bowl game, but bowl games aren't very indicative of a team's ability anyway.
I thought I saw Frost was going to do the bowl game as well. I'm kinda surprised.

Your reasoning is the same as my bro's on OSU. Which makes me not like you. We've been going back & forth on that all weekend.

I personally wanted neither Bama or OSU in it. So I wish Wisky was better. I'm tired of the blue bloods always getting the benefit of the doubt while the others have to work twice as hard to get half as much. I just find it perplexing that Power 5 schools argue the UCF's can't compete in better conferences, yet they raid the "other 5" when they fire their coaches who couldn't compete in the better conferences. How's that work?
