Ex-NFL QB Robert Griffin III Brutally Mocked for Claiming College Football Committee Is Persecuting Christians' With BYU Snub
"Wins and losses have to matter, Griffin said. BYU should be in because they've won the games on their schedule in a Power 4 conference. Stop the persecution of the Christians, man. Come on! BYU should be in the College Football Playoff. -11-1 in a Power 4 Conference Champ Game-#6 Strength of Record-T-Most wins over teams with a winning record -Better SOS than Ole Miss, Notre Dame, Miami Wins and loses matter. Who you beat matters. Stop persecuting Christians."
"RGIII just called the cult of Mormonism, which contradicts, modifies, and sinfully adds to the authoritative Word of God (The Bible), Christianity' Root said in a tweet. @RGIII, you need to correct this immediately. Mormons are NOT Christians. They are sadly deceived by a false religion that distorts the nature of God, the Person of Jesus Christ, and the means of salvation."
Robert Griffin III objected to the College Football Playoff committee ranking BYU No. 11 and said he personally ranked them No. 6. He argued that BYU’s wins, strength of record, and quality wins justified a higher placement and insisted "wins and losses have to matter." Griffin added a religious appeal, saying to "stop the persecution of the Christians," which many viewed as unnecessary. BYU’s 1875 founding by Brigham Young and its LDS ties surfaced in responses. Conservative commentator Jon Root publicly rejected Griffin’s conflation, calling Mormonism distinct from Christianity and criticizing the statement.
