“I don’t know what they’re looking for. I really don’t,” Good stated of the choice committee, by way of ESPN. “I wish they could really define the criteria. I wish they could do the eyeball test where they come down here and look at the people we’re playing against and look at them.
“You’ll be able to’t see that stuff on TV, and so I do not know what they search for. However that is for anyone else to resolve. I am anxious about our staff.”

“They are not in that atmosphere,” Smart said of CFP officials. “They are not at Ole Miss in that atmosphere, enjoying towards that protection, which is high 5 within the nation with top-of-the-line move rushers within the nation, and so they’re fired up. They received a two-score lead, and so they’re coming each play. They do not know. They do not perceive that.”
