Conferences want their brands to matter. And it helps prevent the playoffs from being 12 SEC and B1G teams plus the Big 12 and ACC champs.

Because that was how you slip Miami in. They have to take four conference champions. The ACC gave us Duke, which… no. By adding Tulane and JMU as conference champs they can then ignore the ACC championship game and put Miami in because of rankings.

Argument not present in the evidence. Assumption masquerading as fact.

Who here is too unathletic to play today?

Remember that this regime’s core constituency are incel boys who thought Jordan Pederson saying “make your bed” was the most profound guidance they’d ever heard.
