brownmoose13 lol there are no William and Marys in college football, the playoff used to be two teams and then it went to 4. The wheels of progress in CFB have moved at a snails pace. It's a good ol boys club for sure but things are different now with NIL and conf realignment. The point of the prior comment was that that 2 of the top 4 seeded teams were ranked 1 and 2, the 3rd seed is really 9th ranked and the 4th is really ranked #12 which pushed the 3rd - 8th ranked teams down two spots/seeds each. That is a hose job of epic proportions. Why the committee agreed to do it that way is a mystery. In college basketball where they know what they are doing, as it's been going on forever, if William and Marys gets in they are seeded accordingly, the only tie ins are conf champs which gets you in. Those small schools are typically ranked between 13-16 on there side of the bracket.
