On the other hand, FSU gets all the praise and recognition because of their national champion title. Keep in mind that they are playing significantly easier teams than UF.

  • Examples Of Bias In College Football

    Because the CFP advancement selections are not solely determined by computers, choosing teams to advance by only looking at the teams’ performance statistics is impossible. Therefore, schools with a “big-name” had much more leeway and easier entry into the playoffs because of their popularity and pedigree, which led to the CFP making excuses as to why other teams did not advance to the playoffs. This also occurred because large companies that supported “big-name” colleges put more pressure on the CFP to present these teams on a higher stage. In summary, “big-name” schools were treated better than schools with less pedigree by the College Football Playoff committee because of their status and public support, which gave bigger schools a better chance of advancing to the CFPs. As stated in the literature review, many large corporations and organizations support “big-name” schools and the CFP committee, paving an even smoother pathway for these schools to go to the playoffs.
