Norm wakes up on a Monday and immediately chooses violence… toward the College Football Playoff Committee. In today’s episode, he tries to make sense of a ranking system that apparently pulls names out of a decorative bowl, rewards three-loss teams, and somehow decided James Madison is the belle of the postseason ball while Notre Dame and BYU get left standing outside holding the corsage.
If you thought the BCS was bad, congratulations — we’ve upgraded to BCS: Reloaded, now with bonus nonsense. Norm breaks down the committee’s “logic,” why head-to-head apparently matters only when it's convenient, and how a game played in AUGUST somehow shaped December rankings.
Spoiler: Norm is unimpressed. Mary is unimpressed. You will be unimpressed.
Grab your coffee. Or a helmet.
