If I told you in 2000, that CF would have a 4 team

[wmcovol]

Playoff and after 8 years , these schools would never be in it, would you think I was drunk?

Texas
Southern Cal
Penn St
Tennessee
Florida
Miami
UCLA
Auburn
Va Tech

 

[Doberman]

UCLA and Va Tech wouldn’t surprise me.

The rest probably would.

I’d add Nebraska to the list instead.

 

[SALAMANDER DRAKE]

.

 

[Coach_Z]

If you came back from the future, I’d expect a little more information than that.

 

[Boone&Crockett]

I wish you'd warned us about Dooley and Butch

 

[Jax_Vol]

wish you had told me Monday to pick 10 twice on that Powerball ticket

 

[Jax_Vol]

UCLA and Va Tech wouldn’t surprise me.

The rest probably would.

I’d add Nebraska to the list instead.

Nebraska has just wandered off into 40 years of desert stuff..

 

[wmcovol]

UCLA and Va Tech wouldn’t surprise me.

The rest probably would.

I’d add Nebraska to the list instead.

In 2000, Va Tech was a very good football program. Mike Vick had just left & they’d played in the BCS.

Yep, I forgot to add Nebraska.

And cornbread

 

[bag12day]

And cornbread

And lane … nvm he gone already

 

[utvols74]

And cornbread

Sivad, I used to watch his Saturday night horror show when living in Memphis in the late 60's/70's. I think it was channel 13. "Savid" is actually Davis spelled backwards. He was a funny/creepy dude. Scared the crap out of me between the ages of 6-11. Thanks for the memory.

In 2000, Va Tech was a very good football program. Mike Vick had just left & they’d played in the BCS.

Yep, I forgot to add Nebraska.

They always had that overrated feel about them back then. Like they didn't belong and it's not surprising what happened since. Sort of like Kansas St.

 

[Frosty]

Never? Not until 2022*** for Tennessee

 

[Volholic]

I’d probably add Florida State to that.

 

[Stacmot]

UCLA and Va Tech wouldn’t surprise me.

The rest probably would.

I’d add Nebraska to the list instead.

You beat me to it! I would have Nebraska on this list as well!

 

[DB1995]

I’d probably add Florida State to that.

Florida State did make the first playoff with Jameis Winston, when they got destroyed by Oregon

 

[WingT]

I would've been more surprised if you said bama and clemson are in most years.... or that missouri is in the sec, specifically the east

Was Auburn involved somehow? 2013...?

 

[Winchester73]

Was Auburn involved somehow? 2013...?

Auburn lost the last BCS … to Fl State, right ?

 

[Jax_Vol]

Auburn lost the last BCS … to Fl State, right ?

I think that is correct. In the Rose Bowl stadium.

Only remember that, because at the time, was working with an Auburn friend who went to game.

 

[zjcvols]

Auburn lost the last BCS … to Fl State, right ?

Correct, in a very underrated game actually. Gus' first year and Jimbo had Jameis.

CFB has always been dominated by a handful of teams at a time and the dominant groups composition changes over time. Usually a decade can pass and you'll see a far different scene. The 90's were our post-Neyland zenith but the 70's and 80's were fairly lean with a few exceptions, nothing like the nadir of the 10's though.
