Statistically, we belong in the CFP as much as anyone else if not more.

We are the only team not in the CFP that has triple digit wins.

What is the difference between G5 wins and P4 wins. Should we get in when playing G5 all year over someone playing P4 all year?

A win is a win a loss is a loss regardless of who it is. The reason we have percentages is to compare things that cannot be compared directly.

Besides list like this are to motivate action and give us something to discuss to distract us from solving the real problems of the world.

If that is true should FCS be eligable for a playoff spot? If Wofford goes undefeated should they get a spot?

The FCS is no involved with the College Football Playoff. They have their own NCAA playoff. You know this. Why are you asking irrelevant questions to argue something irrelevant?

Wyoming is right. Based on wins alone during the CFP era, App is due for involvement. We were very close in 2019. A bit further now, but it’s more possible than ever.

Making the playoff would be transformational for our program and fan base. And yes, we could and should be in it if we meet the criteria, just like Boise last year. Plenty of P4 teams have also been blown out in the first round so the G5 being undeserving argument just doesn’t hold water to me.

There’s a small but vocal segment of our fan base, usually older, that thinks we’re too big for our britches and should know our place, but they’re wrong. This program always finds a way to pull off the “impossible” and that should be our goal.
