Ya'll get too worked up about this, but conference shampships should never happen with rematches.

Had no idea, thanks for that knowledge
Not sure if serious???Ya'll get too worked up about this, but conference shampships should never happen with rematches. Already settled, they are only needed because conferences add too many teams. Round robin da bess but it isn't as lucrative. It doesn't add an extra quality game because it shouldn't be needed in the first place.
Sorry, but reality (or I guess in this case, logic) does hit you hard sometimes bros
I mean, you're making the argument that conference championships shouldn't feature rematches coming off a weekend when only one of the five games played actually was a rematch so I wasn't sure.
Not sure if serious???
So why even have a postseason at all then? I can see CFB since they can't play each other, but in MLB, NBA... there are plenty of games for a full round-robin. In the NFL you could play your whole conference and select a Super Bowl representative based on that. And whether or not you think it's needed should have no bearing on whether it's a quality game. I mean, OOC games are not needed, does that mean they can't be quality games?
Okay... so you are just trolling. My bad.
Yeah, but they also played Rutgers, Maryland, Michigan, Penn State, Illinois and Indiana, and that's just in the Big Ten. Outside of Kansas, the Big 12 doesn't have teams that bad. Conference championship games are dumb.

the rematch is only a small part of the problem. missouri had no business playing Alabama saturday.If you don't play a round robin schedule, then I think a conference championship game is fine. More often than not (e.g. this past weekend), the CCG is not a rematch from the regular season.
I think this is reflected in the rankings though. For instance look at Utah still ranked with 4 losses. They played the hardest schedule in the country and where rewarded in the poll's.the rematch is only a small part of the problem. missouri had no business playing Alabama saturday.
missouri didn't have to play mississippi state, lsu, alabama, auburn, or ole miss in the regular season. they did get to play vanderbilt, kentucky, arkansas, and texas a&m.
the bigger these conferences get, the more likely this shit is going to happen. 14 teams is way too many.
this isn't the NFL where even the jaguars or raiders could beat anyone. if you play vandy and kentucky but miss alabama and lsu, your strength of schedule is significantly impacted. there are no 28 point spreads in the NASHNUL.
people keep talking about non-conference schedules but are too lazy to look and see that teams in the same league have completely different types of seasons.
i didn't hear a single person talk about this during the selection process, and it's a shame.
oregon didn't have to play 6-3 arizona state or 6-3 USC this year. they got utah and colorado instead. did you hear anyone mention that? nah.
Yep. All of these P5 conferences need to play 9 games. Even though Oregon missed SC and ASU, they still had to play Utah and UCLA on the road and play Zona at home. Zona had to play 3 of the top 4 from the North. The two teams they missed were a combined 7-11 in conference play. The two opponents UCLA missed went 4-14 in conference play. Meanwhile, OSU; Alabama; and FSU got to skip teams like Nebraska, Iowa, Mizzou, Georgia, Duke, UNC. None of those teams are really great teams but they're all better than the FCS or Sun Belt team that those teams put there instead.
The SEC's scheduling is by far the worst. They rotate 1 division opponent lmao. Alabama doesn't have to play Georgia or Mizzou, Mizzou doesn't have to play Auburn or Ole Miss, etc. for like 100 years.
stop it.
stop it.
I just tweeted ALL OF ITdid you hear anyone mention ohio state didn't have to face nebrask....lol nevermind.
but really, the big ten had 3 teams with winning conference records outside of ohio state. the buckeyes dodged 2 of the 3 in the regular season (wisconsin, nebraska). is that fair?
michigan state didn't play either of wisconsin or minnesota.
baylor and TCU had to play everyone.
14 teams is too much. and there is absolutely no excuse for those conferences not to play 9 regular season conference games instead of 8 when the big xii and pac-12 are doing so.
DERP CONFERENCE CHAMPS PLAYED AN EXTRA GAME DERP
yes, you're correct: they played an extra non-con game against derp state. and played the same exact number of conference games as big xii teams.
critical thinking is dead. this shit is not hard. it's just too long to tweet or soundbite.

I mean, If tcu and Baylor played again, and Baylor won again that would surely make a statement.
It's a giant advantage that Bama didn't have to play more East teams? I'd have rather played the East than the West.It's a giant advantage that teams like Bammer miss the better East teams this year.
UCLA v K-State should be a good defensive game...it's one of the games I am looking forward too. I need more fuel to stoke @bruin228 n @bruin fireUtah was better than SC.
UCLA didn't get to play two of the worst teams in the conference this year, sometimes it happens. Pac-12 scheduling is way better than any other leagues. 12 is good spot for a conference to be in, especially if you play 9 games. 8 games for a 14 team league (SEC, B1G, ACC) is a fucking joke.
