How come? We could have 6 straight wins against ranked teams.


Wouldn't matter. The toss dive extravaganza that caused us to lose two games omitted us from contention this year.

Had we spread the field from game one, we would be in if we had run the gauntlet.

On top of all this it looks as if we will play 8 ranked teams this year. That is equal to Ohio St, Michigan, Washington, and Clemson combined.

Wrong, and not very well thought out. What would it matter what type of offense we ran, as long as we win? And who's to say we would have automatically won in a spread offense as opposed to executing our current offense better?

I'm not in the group that thinks we're automatically in, but I believe we'd have a chance, depending on how convincing our performances are. The committee would not want egg on their faces letting a conference champion in with more than one loss that subsequently craps out considering that there would be a number of 1 loss teams that could have gone. I also think that having one less win because of UF hurts us as well.
