I’m no Vanderbilt fan, but I think they out to be in. They’re a true Cinderrella story. But it looks like the powers that be don’t want them in.

If Texas gets in and Vandy doesn't, it would be so wrong. Vandy deserves to be in. If we had their resume, we would expect to be in.

Texas, a team who probably won’t make the play offs did beat Vanderbilt, which is a negative.

I think the better question is why should Vanderbilt be the 10 and 2 team to get in over Oklahoma, Miami, Alabama and Notre Dame.

Regardless I’d really like to see Vanderbilt in the play offs and think they deserve to be there. .

Vandy deserves to be in but will be left out due to the automatic bids BS.

I'll go out on a limb and say no one except Ohio St would want to play Vandy right now. No one.

Ohio St is the best team in the country, and it's not close. Pains me to say that, but it's true. Whatever.

Not surprising in the least. The CFP is about one thing: money. Teams = ratings = money. Which team brings more eyeballs and hence more money? Vandy or Texas?

If you support the expanded CFP, this is what you're obligated to support. There is no meritocracy.

They probably deserve to be there but they will hopefully get screwed. Get rid of the stupid, unfair byes, automatic bids, go to 16 teams and they`re in without a doubt. We would have been in last year also.

If you've watched their last 3 games, you know why. Pavia - who I don't really like much - will prob be Heisman runner-up. And he deserves it. The ONLY reason Vandy is definitely out is that they are Vandy.

Miami isn't even playing for the stupid ACC Championship (although they probably should be since they're 10-2).
