Rebels coach took to social media soon after the CFP announced latest rankings.
Mark Heim | [email protected] Rebels coach, who spent the days leading up to the announcement stumping for his team, took to social media after the College Football Playoff committee make it known that Alabama was ranked No. 11 followed by Miami, Ole Miss and South Carolina, essentially ending Kiffin’s CFP hopes.
While the piece suggest the Miami Hurricanes should be the angriest for being left out, the Rebels were No. 2. “So, on average, the Rebels’ losses weren’t as bad as Alabama’s. Their wins were markedly better than Alabama’s. Their underlying stats are better than Alabama’s. Their schedule strength was effectively equal to Alabama’s.”. The Gamecocks lost the head-to-head to both the Tide and Rebels. In addition, all three teams have no games remaining. CFP chair Warde Manuel made it clear Tuesday night, those teams won’t have a chance to jump the Tide.
“Those teams who are not playing cannot be adjusted in terms of where they are compared to other teams that are not playing. But the championship teams, we will evaluate that data point to determine if there needs to be any movement based on how the performance of the game goes.”.
