College Football Playoff Could Get Messy In The End

When the College Football Playoff idea came around we all thought it was the answer to the BCS, but little did we know it has not solved the issues. It seems every season it has gotten worse and this year could really be a terrible mess. Let's look at some of the issues the committee could face when selection time comes. It could be tough that's for sure.

Let's start with the Big Ten as that should not be to bad of a mess for the selection committee. Ohio State, Michigan, and Wisconsin are all still in the running for a playoff spot. Michigan is in the best spot as if they win out they will get in. Wisconsin has to have some help, but winning the Big Ten Championship could hold alot of weight as they will need to beat either Ohio State or Michigan to get it. Wisconsin is a long shot even if they win the Big Ten Championship in my opinion.

In the SEC it's Alabama to lose as all season they have been the best team in College Football. Even with a loss I could see Alabama getting in. That loss though will need to come in the SEC Championship game. Clemson is another team that is a lock if they win out rest of the season.

Right now I see Alabama, and Clemson as locks to get in which means there is two spots left. If Washington runs the table I see them getting in to the playoffs. Now after that this is where it could get interesting. I think if Ohio State or Michigan runs the table they will be the remaining team in. This means a one loss Louisville could not make it even though there one loss was a close game at Clemson. Oklahoma could be Big 12 champions but with two blowout losses they will not make it.

Now if some of these teams drop a game down the stretch there could be a lot of one loss teams. This means more teams will be in the mix. No matter how you look at it adding more teams is something that will need to be done down the road.

Cleveland Or Chicago No Matter Who Wins This World Series Is Special

The one thing baseball has been lacking in the last few years is a good storyline and the 2016 World Series has brought us plenty. We have the Chicago Cubs and the Cleveland Indians both trying to get that elusive World Series Title. Both teams have seen there share of struggles, but both now are elite teams in the MLB. Fans have waited a long time for both teams to win a championship, but only one will be able to do it.

One of the biggest things I have taken away from this world Series is how well it has been played. Both managers have used their players wisely and for the most part the pitching has been outstanding. If you like pure baseball then this World Series has been for you. It has been a long time since we have had two teams that are pretty closely matched in the Fall Classic.

The only bad thing about this Series is one team will have to lose which is a shame. Both teams deserve to win for their cities and their fans. No matter who wins it should go down as a very good World Series. I know the ratings have been good for this Fall Classic. Hopefully, this will put Baseball back up as one of the best sports to watch again. For some time it was pretty boring to watch, but thank the Indians and Cubs for baseball's revival.
