Huh

Have you not seen Mississippi State's schedule? East opponents are Kentucky and SC, and the 3 West home games are Arkansas, Texas A&M, and Auburn. Do you honestly think we'll go 1-4 in those games or something? Most MSU fans are expecting 4-1 or 5-0...

Did most MSU fans except what happened today?

I think half the state is on suicide watch, myself included. I have no words.

I think there will be real chaos for the selection committee this year, as I don't think there will be 4 undefeated or one-loss teams from P5 conferences, let alone that won conference championships.  Something controversial will happen- possibly two teams from one conference or a close call with a mid-major.  It probably leads to an expansion to eight teams in a couple years.

Eight would be the ideal number. One autobid to each conference champion (and we can get rid of conference championship games if people are too concerned about the extra game), and 1 bid reserved for a non-P5 team. The last two would be at larges, preferably chosen and seeded by an objective, predetermined formulas, rather than a committee.

Interesting to me is how SEC fanbases all believe there is a strong anti-SEC bias in the selection committee and in media coverage in general, while fans of all other conferences believe there is a strong pro-SEC bias.

Glad to see UW vindicated thanks to MS State. Smiley

You are very welcome Cheesy

However, I regret to inform you that I am a huge Mike Leach fanboy, so I'm rooting for the Cougars to beat Washington and take the Pac-12 for themselves. (And maybe sneak into the playoff?)

Fun fact: The Egg Bowl is probably a play-in for the Independence Bowl. Yes, even though Mississippi State is 4-7 right now, our APR is probably high enough to sneak into a bowl with a win today, as there won't be enough 6-6+ teams to fill all 80 slots.

Not we deserve a bowl even if we win today, but I'll take the extra practices and game experience.

Yeah looks like Las Vegas Bowl against MWC Champion or Armed Forces Bowl vs. Navy.

Definitely hope it's the former, but obviously were in no position to complain about match ups
