The irony. Both TX and Penn St have double digit spreads… while Ore and GA…

both lines are -1.5. 

Yet Texas and Penn St seem to have the easier game with Penn being favored-10.5 and Texas -13.5.

Good job committee. Should be the opposite. 

Oregon should be playing either Boise or Arizona St.  Oregon and Ohio St are likely the two best teams in college football, yet are playing each other in the round of 8?

 My thoughts exactly 

My exact thoughts.....

It's a joke that Arizona State and Boise got byes. One is a ten point dog, the other fourteen. They just need to give the best four teams byes, not conference champions.

Definitely have to figure out a better way to seed. I understand awarding major conference winners but you can’t have 3 of best teams in college playing each other in early games.

you can make an argument that Oregon Texas and Ohio st are 3 best teams in nation and are all in same bracket

if texas never joined the sec they could've been big 12 champs with the bye instead of arz st 

RELAX everyone…..this was something new and just how it was set up this year.  There is already plenty of talk about making adjustments before next years playoffs to have it set up better, and I’m sure changes/adjustments will be made

I don't like that two BIG teams are matched up in the Rose Bowl. Ohio St should be playing Texas in the Peach and ASU should be playing Oregon in the Rose. That's the only problem I have with the format. And in hindsight, I STILL don't have a problem with SMU and Indiana getting in to the CFP. Both teams earned their shot. I doubt that ANY SEC team, used to warm weather, would've fared any better at Notre Dame, Penn St. or Ohio St. in subfreezing temps. That's my story and I'm sticking with it.
