And the SEC can't even get to it! Remember ...it has only been played just one time in D1.

Nope - since 1997. It was just expanded this year. And SEC has dominated!

P12 has not won a Championship Playoff while SEC has won 9. Nuff said.

There has been a Nat Champ game pitting the two best teams o D1 football since 1997. The Puny12 has no wins since then. There brand of power puff football can't stand up to power football out of the south and mid-west. Sorry for your loss!

Hate to say it Bill, but #1 and #2 was beaten soundly by #4 this year. So, the #1 vs #2 really doesn't hold up well.

Bad year every now again. But in the history of college championship games, the PAC 12 has zero wins while the SEC has 9. Its not who get there that counts its who wins unless you want to brag abut being the first to lose

Just learned that I will have the week of 6-15-15 off. I am now a go for Tahoe! Looking forward to putting a face to some of the characters on this forum. I'm hoping to join up with anyone passing through Vegas for the ride up to Tahoe. I may be riding with Sin City Stan (if he can make it) but the more the merrier!

One game is not a playoff. It is a popularity contest. Nuf said:eek:

2015 Tahoe Sign up

It is a Championship Game. And the P12 has never won one. Never! Nor have they won one in the new system. It just a simple fact - P 12 can't win the big one. Nuff said

See link.Seems that up until 2014 the only difference was the "selecting" organization. Only 1 True (had to win a playoff) Champion to date...Ohio State.

If you are going by "Selecting Org" ...I count 9 PAC 8/10/12 titles. BCS was a farce...no better than AP, Coaches poll.

GAME ...SET ...MATCH..I WIN!

On your link to the list of " NCAA Championship History"

I count 9 Championships just for USC.(31,32,62,67,72,74,78,03,04)

Cal has 3 (20,21,22),

Stanford with 1(26), and UCLA with 1(54).

Cliff - you are right. All those were the result of a vote not a game played between No. 1 and No2*. That did not happen until the BCS started in 1997 and the PAC 12 has not won Nat Champ Game since then. Ck out:

http://www.sbnation.com/college-football/2014/1/6/5268006
/bcs-championship-game-winners-list-history

*SC did win the BCS champ game in 2005 but got caught cheating and had to vacate it. The 03 Nat. Champ claimed by SC was the result of a vote (AP) and not a game played and is not recognized by any D1 Conference to include the P12. The Nat Champ that year was LSU.

Bill, USC football team did not cheat!

These sanctions have been criticized by some NCAA football writers,[6][7][8][9][10] including ESPN’s Ted Miller, who wrote, “It's become an accepted fact among informed college football observers that the NCAA sanctions against USC were a travesty of justice, and the NCAA’s refusal to revisit that travesty are a massive act of cowardice on the part of the organization.”[11]

Ted Miller is a P12 groupie. If you want to believe that coaches on SC did not know of the pay for play your welcome to that belief. But I don't think folks many south of the MD line buy that. Bottom line, they vacated it and thus no P12 wins.
