Clemson should be on the outside looking in. They play no one and lost alot.

I like Sam Khan. He has 3 SEC teams in and none are Alabama. Not sure how that happens, other than both LSU and Auburn beat Alabama. LSU beats Auburn, Auburn beats Georgia, and Georgia beats LSU in the SECCG. Still seems unlikely unless all the other conferences and ND implode.

its not an end of season prediction. Its a "if the playoffs started today, who are your 4 in?"

Swamp Angel•68 months

I like your prognostication except for the part about LSU losing a game! :D

Dixierebel•68 months

How is that possible if we beat Bama and Aubie. we will have to play Georgia while Bama sits out but gets in. I hope Aubie beats Bama also.

(Note: These are not their projections for how the season will end.) It clearly states this. This is their projections if the season ended today

brewhan davey•68 months

See 2017 season

I support those writers who don't support Bama.

GumboDave•68 months

Sam Khan Jr. knows what's up. LSU has the best win so far this year.

TDsngumbo•68 months

But Auburn at #4?

Lsu101205•68 months

He is respecting the teams that have played someone decent, all 4 of Sam's top 4 have a good win on their schedule. Cant say that about the team he omitted.

Swamp Angel•68 months

Well, they did until UGA beat ND. I think ND might actually be a real team this year rather than just a media darling. Congrats to UGA. But, then again, Texas is pretty durned good too. Maybe we just need to let it settle itself out in the SECCG. (Geaux Tigahs!)
