Social media jokingly reacts to Colorado missing out on the College Football Playoff
Unlike fans of Florida State, Georgia, Alabama and Texas, Colorado loyalists weren’t exactly on the edge of their seats watching the College Football Playoff selection show on Sunday morning.
The Buffs were certainly an improved team in 2023, but head coach Deion Sanders’ squad still fell two wins short of a bowl bid and finished last in the Pac-12.
Regardless, Colorado remains one of the most talked-about teams in college football. As Michigan, Washington, Texas and Alabama all made the final top four, many social media users joked that Colorado should’ve made the cut with Coach Prime on its side.

For the record my selection for the CFP would have been 1. Iowa 2. Utah State 3. Nevada 4. Colorado
1 v 4 coaching matchup would have been lit but noooooobody ever listens.

Going to be an interesting day…
Since eSECpn pays for the CFP, I'm preparing to laugh if the committee decides to take:
1. Alabama
2. Georgia
3. Colorado
4. Michigan (for a feigned touch of legitimacy)Then adds Ole Miss + Tennessee up close
I'm only half joking… 🤣🤦♂️

Everybody giving their predictions for CFP 4. Here’s mine in no particular order:
1) Winner of Army/Navy this week. America’s team y’all!
2) Colorado— Because Deion said so.
3) Liberty. They’re undefeated y’all!
4) South Florida—Needed a team from the south and they’re eligible!— Mike Hopper, MS, LAT, ATC (@mnhopper1s) December 3, 2023

If the committee considered TV ratings, Colorado's playoff hopes would be much improved.

If a 1-loss Bama or Texas get in the CFP over an undefeated FSU there’s no reason Colorado shouldn’t be considered
