Twitter reaction to playoff poll focuses on North Carolina slight
The final College Football Playoff poll before Selection Day at noon on Sunday was released and there was no shortage of responses to it.
Most agreed that North Carolina was ranked much lower than it should be. Even with a win over Clemson on Saturday, most feel that the Tar Heels, ranked No. 10 this week, are too far down in the poll to make up enough ground to reach the top four and a spot in the College Football Playoff.
Here are a few of the many Twitter reactions:
Why does the committee do UNC so dirty every week? @CFBPlayoff

I bet nobody on that CFB playoff committee has watched every single Carolina game this season.

Wow… If @UNC finds a way to beat @ClemsonFB we'll see how much the @CFBPlayoff committee likes conference championships.

Come on, @CFBPlayoff committee. We both know @OhioStAthletics is a top four team. Let's make it official. #OSU #hoping #praying #CFBPlayoff

UNC AT 10???? BEHIND FSU? The committee has done wrong. #CFBPlayoff #uncfb

Somebody in the committee is deciding let's put Ohio State back in the Top 6 'cause of their brand, for New Year's Six ratings. #CFBPlayoff

#CFBPlayoff committee messed up big time on this one

UNC being ranked 10 is laughable. How am I supposed to take the CFB Playoff Committee serious with rankings like that?

@CFBPlayoff The CFB Committee is a joke Clemson has struggled to beat 5 teams that have records of 3-9 it's laughable Jeff Long needs to GO

This gives CFP committee a loophole to leave the Heels out even if we beat Clemson. Could say 10 to top 4 is too big a jump. #CFBPlayoff

I swear the #CFBPlayoff committee is a joke. No respect for #UNC at #10. USC at 8-4 is #20? Oregon at #16? This is ridiculous.

Wow. The committee must have misplaced the game film from FSU – GT. Tar Heels got no love. #CFBPlayoff

Don't see a path for Ohio State to the #CFBPlayoff with MSU and Iowa ahead of them. Committee has to put in Big 10 champ.

The @CFBPlayoff committee does a great job from week to week. It's really hard to decide if a 2-loss team is worse than a 1-loss team.

@Joey_Galloway @ESPN_ReceDavis @kevincarterESPN: #NorthCarolina & #Houston getting no respect from committee. #CFPRankings #CFBPlayoff
— Tony Fontane (@TMAN1138pm) December 2, 2015
The rankings will most likely work themselves out but this CFB playoff committee is the absolute worst. 10th? ?
— Urrin (@Two_AAs) December 2, 2015
3 out of top 6 #bigten teams but the committee loves the SEC! Lol go #Buckeyes we still got a shot. It's slim but it's a shot. #CFBPlayoff

Carolina snubbed by the Committee again, how is Florida state get ranked higher then us?! Smh #BeatClemson #CFBPlayoff
