Who is that man up their spewing impartial nonsense that takes into account the inherent oddities of college football's playing field, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of the particular universities that participate at its highest level? Even the most trained of eye would probably argue that it's Georgia's head coach Kirby Smart, but no SEC savant worth their salt in superiority would ever admit that it's at all logical for a measly Conference USA program to think of themselves as an equal to the best of the best below the Mason-Dixon. Someone get Paul Finebaum on the case, because we have an imposter on our hands and his sole purpose is empathizing with those pesky mid-majors that keep trying to make noise from up under the iron fist of playoff-bound Power 5's like a hissing cockroach that just won't die. Look, I'm not trying to say that UCF was better and/or more deserving of a spot in the playoff than Georgia or Alabama. I'm saying you're incredibly biased and stubborn if you can't see why they, themselves, might consider that to be so. An undefeated season that was capped off a victory over a an opponent that is - at worst - a half step below the two that will face off for an official title tonight? I think if you were a part of that then you too would be declaring the difficulty of your flawlessness without shame. I tip my hat to Kirby Smart for being one of the few people who is able to see both sides of the argument despite having a vested interest in erring on the side of his own success.
