I'm not justifying anything, dude. I want the system torn up completely. I'm not defending them. I'm saying your assertion the committee is beholden to base each week's ranking on last week's is bogus. It is a lie.

You want to repeat what I say, then include this.......

I told you before how this whole thing was set up. There isn't any firm structure for the selection process. When title week ends, the committee, supposedly, picks the most worthy 12 and seeds them. They have to pick the best ranked conference champions, the highest ranked Group of 5 team & can apparently pick a 2nd group of 5 champ if a Power 4 conference champion isn't ranked. As far as I know, that is it. There is no other guidelines, no computer data, nothing they have to adhere to in making their choices. You can keep circling back to last week if you want, as much as you want, it is still a flat lie that had to be any consideration.

But hey, let me save you the round trip. Why don't I just give you a link to the rules so you can see it for yourself?

NCAA
CFP Selection Committee

Now, do we see anything in the rules that states any previous ranking has to be given any consideration when they do the current week's ranking?

I love this. Cause, chess lover, now I got you in checkmate. You are going to have to do one of 3 things..........1. Admit you were wrong & I'm right, 2. Continue to argue and thus prove what I said that you are not strong enough to admit you are wrong, or 3. Hide and say nothing, thus proving I'm right.

Which will you choose?................
