Gary Barta corrupted the CFP

Hoosier crybaby or Jade Michael?
Either way, fan of a team that hasn’t beat anyone with a winning record
IU has nobody but their own conference to blame. 7 games. 6 wins against really bad teams. 1 loss against tOSU that nobody is really sure about, either. Sh!t resume.
Most likely an Indiana fan. I would hope an Iowa fan would be smart enough to know they’re the university of Iowa not Iowa university, but who knows.
I had no opinion of Indiana before yesterday, but now I just can't stand them. Would love to see them go back to being a B1G doormat.
Didn't realize that Gary Barta is a 1 man CFP committee. Pretty sure he was not the only voice in the room when the decisions were made. That pains me to kinda defend him too as bad of an AD as he is but to say he is the reason ISU made the game they did is quite a reach.
AND MOST OF ALL WHEN THEY HELD THE POSITION TO PLAY AGAINST A RANKED NORTHWESTERN IN THE CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME TO GUARANTEE A NY6 GAME IF THEY WERE TO WIN WHAT DOD THEY DO?
THEY AGREED TO ALLOW OSU TO PLAY IN THE SPOT THEY HAD EARNED BY THE RULES!!!!!
These crybabies are projecting their suffering onto us because they know they sold out just to get OSU something of value in return for nothing. Maybe the conference promised they'd guarantee them a NY6 if they gave OSU what they wanted, but if they did they made the huge mistake of actually believing them.
Indiana fans claiming 'ranked' wins against Penn State, Wisconsin, and Michigan while those teams failed to finish with a winning record is just precious.
Indiana's schedule was garbage too. Their 1 loss was to OSU who I don't hold in high regards right now either who doesn't deserve to be in the top 4 with their lack of games played and will likely get beat down by Clemson. Indiana's 6 wins came against teams with records of:
4-5
3-6
2-4
2-5
2-3
3-3
Combined record: 16-26. That isn't much to hang your hat on for strength of schedule and quality wins.
Good thing that you grabbed a screen shot because that won't be on there very long. Anyone can edit a Wikipedia entry and anyone can come along and delete it. I've done it.
How's this wording:Take a look at the page now and also check the history of changes.
" Barta eloquently defended the decision to place 8-win (and regular season Big12 Champion) Iowa State University into an NY6 bowl game over a weak 6-win Indiana. Many commentators complemented this decision as being very deserving for Iowa State. Tavern hawks across Iowa overwhelmingly supported his decision. "
lol
lol
Unless Indiana fans are complaining on behalf of Coastal Carolina, they are just proving that they are morons.
Record vs. teams in final CFP:
Iowa State 2-3
Indiana 0-1
Record vs. teams with winning records:
Iowa State 4-3
Indiana 0-1
Record against teams with losing records:
Iowa State 4-0
Indiana 5-0
Again, Indiana's resume is:
- Bad call to beat garbage Penn St.
- Beat more teams with losing records
- Grab a backdoor cover vs. Ohio State, who has beaten one other team with a winning record
Go away Indiana. Not your fault the Big 10 screwed you. But in the end you didn't DO anything. Not losing to garbage teams isn't an accomplishment. Iowa State didn't lose to any teams with losing records either. In fact, for good measure, ISU didn't lose to teams with winning records outside the CFP top 25.
The only thing Indiana did better than ISU was avoid losses, which they accomplished by not playing games.
