    Pretty sure we can call this game. How is the committee going to keep UC out of the top four this week? Looking for serious responses.
    The reason we would not be in the top 4 is $$$$$$$. Lee Corso a few weeks earlier stated we should be considered. Then he does an about face
    & states ND should be in after we beat them in South Bend. I believe, Corso had to say this to keep his job. Again $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.

    • Maybe I'm not sufficiently jaded, but I am expecting we will be in the Top 4

      1. Georgia
      2. Ohio State
      3. Alabama
      4. UC
      5. Michigan
      6/7. Notre Dame / Oklahoma State

        The job of the talking heads is to generate controversy which leads to ratings and advertising $$$$ in the end, Like you said.

        • An interesting read about UC's chances and how the committee has been fair. College Football Playoff: Cincinnati’s rankings by the committee have been fair. (slate.com)

              • And ND sneaking up to number 5.

                • Oh sure its impressive to beat an overrated team at home and keep an overrated team who barely beats a top 25 team at home above UC.

                  • Thinking this through a bit, I still can't come up with a logical reason UC doesn't get in if they have a dominate win over ECU and/or play well next week. I think that may be more of a key than people are talking about, but the Committee prob wants to see that this is the same team who cleanly beat a top 10 ND team on the road, who are now knocking on the door again as well it looks like.

                    So a consistent effort 2 weeks in a row may go a long way to convince them of that, that the 2 "close" games were abberations and not the new norm etc..,

                    And this isn't a UCF team, it's a roster filled with high level NFL talent, on par with any top 5 school right now.

                    So yes, if they do not get in given the above, this week or next, I can't help but to believe it's simply a $ thing.

                    • It may be about the big schools keeping all of the money to themselves. However, one must remember that the UC-Georgia game was the highest viewed bowl game last year. So if it is about TV rankings, one would think that the networks would be pushing for the Bearcats to be in it. Everyone out there is tired of the same 4-6 teams in it and they are even more tired of seeing the 1 sead killing the 4 and the 2 sead killing the 3. If Georgia is going to crush anyone, why not let it be a new comer?

                          Yes we can and when ND jumps us I'm going to be livid.

                            That would be a crock of s**t.

                              Livid won't begin to describe it after repeatedly expressing the value of head-to-head matchups in explaining earlier inexplicable rankings.
                              Red and Black are more of an Attitude than merely a color combination.

                                Columbus College's Quality Loss took a serious hit Saturday.

                                Cincinnati's non conference SOS is up to #7 in the country.

                                Miami is one win away from the MAC Championship appearance.
