Xavier beats Marquette by 3. Should be safe now, although one more win would certainly help them rest easier.
The 'noles are down 14 with 45 seconds to go. Many gloomy clouds cited over Tally-hassy.
They had more than their share of fun during football season. **** 'em.
Free Shoes won't be dancing.
All the teams on the outside part of the bubble seem to be losing. Could be a relatively boring Selection Sunday.Florida on a 9 point run to take control against Mizzou (Gators by 11)

That's why I edited to relatively. Last year IIRC was pretty free of controversy. You'll probably get them more with the seeds this year, but that's not as bad and more subjective to begin with.there will be some head scratchers, there always is

Whenever anyone suggests in cfb, something like "no deserving teams should be left out" for a playoff -- no matter what number they pick, you will have controversy. Whether it's 2, 4, 8, 10, 16. If #69 thinks they were wronged, you bet as hell #17 in a hypothetical expanded playoff is going to raise hell.Seeding is going to be a complete crapshoot, for sure. And we'll probably have a couple odd bubble selections, it does get a little murky differentiating between the last couple teams in and first couple out.

That would be too many games and I know the lower levels do an expanded playoff, they also have few regular season games and no conference championship games.True. But it's better to have those controversies in football around who gets the 15th and 16th spots than over who gets the 3rd and 4th. The farther removed from #1, the less risk that you're leaving out a potential champion.
In basketball, for example, it would really such for some worthy teams if we only had 48 in the tourney and were only picking around a dozen at-large bids.
**** you Ohio State.
Unless this ends up helping our seeding. I wouldn't cry about a Rd1 game against OSU. They didn't challenge themselves in the non-con and didn't do much in the B1G. They're really down this year. Matta's a good coach, though. That would worry me.
St. Joe's beat Dayton.
Flyers may be out. It's tough for the committee to take 6 teams from the A-10. That's pushing it. A-10 wasn't good enough to justify that.
