Playoff scenarios
Posted on 11/27/16 at 12:45 pm
Posted on 11/27/16 at 12:45 pm
Teams that are in consideration:
Alabama (12-0) plays Florida
Clemson (11-1) plays Virginia Tech
Washington (11-1) plays Colorado (10-2)
Ohio State (11-1) does not play
Wisconsin (10-2) plays Penn State (10-2)
Oklahoma (9-2) plays Oklahoma State (9-2)
First off, every scenario has Alabama beating Florida, so let's just put them in at #1 and 13-0.
For the other 3 teams:
Clemson - If they win, they're in. If they lose, the ACC has no representation.
Washington - If they win, they're in.
Ohio State - would need Wisconsin to win the Big Ten and either Clemson or Washington to lose. Does not get in if Penn State wins the Big Ten.
Colorado - would need to beat Washington, Clemson to lose, and Penn State to win the Big Ten.
Wisconsin - win and they're in.
Oklahoma - would need Clemson and Washington to lose and for Penn State to win the Big Ten.
Oklahoma State - CFP committee is more likely to give them the benefit of the doubt due to the CMU fiasco.
Here are the different combinations:
Alabama, Clemson, Washington, Penn State
Alabama, Clemson, Washington, Wisconsin
Alabama, Clemson, Ohio State, Wisconsin
Alabama, Washington, Penn State, Oklahoma State
Alabama, Washington, Penn State, Oklahoma
Alabama, Washington, Ohio State, Wisconsin

This is a simple question, and please don't flame the response. I think it is the answer and how OSU will end up in
The committee chair said that OSU was clearly better than PSU/Wisky in their eyes last Tuesday. All 3 of those teams had the potential from that day forward to add another top 25 win. OSU won theirs. No matter who wins the other, wouldn't it just keep status quo with the committee, regardless of the conference title "title"

I don't know why people are trying to come up with these fantasy scenarios. The committee is will not drop OSU from 2 to out of the top 4 after they just beat the then #3 team.
It doesn't matter what happens in B1GCG, OSU is in.
It doesn't matter what happens in SECCG, Bama is in.
And they both deserve to be

These two scenarios are impossible.
First of all I think, OU really doesn't have a path to the playoffs, because even in case there's "chaos," all the teams they'd be competing against would have 11 wins.
Secondly, OU isn't going over Ohio state...better résumé and lopsided h2h win on the road... Winning a terrible big 12 wouldn't overcome that. So any remote scenario that has OU in would also need to have Ohio state in. And honestly, I don't see any.
Penn State losing yesterday was OU's last hope.

Alabama is in.
If Clemson, Washington, and Wisconsin win....
Alabama
Ohio State
Clemson
Washington
Wisconsin would need Clemson or Washington to lose to get the Big Ten a second team, probably.
If Penn State wins, then Ohio State has a little to worry about.

I think the only way this becomes a controversy is if Penn State blows Wisconsin out of the water.
Then again, this year Penn State stupidly decided to pick the scab on that whole child rape scandal, and I'm sure the Committee wants no part of all that banter entering the hype this December.

No way, the Badgers would also need some help from Colorado and/or Va Tech

What about:
Alabama, Clemson, Wisconsin/Penn State, Oklahoma?

Alabama is in win or lose.
Clemson is in with a win.
Washington is in with a win.
Penn St is in with a win. Ohio St goes in as BIG rep if Penn St loses but eliminated if Penn St wins. Wisky is already eliminated by virtue of h2h loss to OSU. BIG deserves a representative this year.
Oklahoma St is in with a win and loss by Clemson since they lost to a ranked Baylor team and had one win taken away. OU is eliminated by virtue of loss to Ohio St
Colorado is on the bubble with a win and losses by the win-to-be-in group. Wisky or OU may get a reprieve if they win out and the ones ahead of them lose but Ohio St gets in ahead of any of these three

Agreed that if Penn State wins, Ohio State is eliminated (unless of course an upset(s) happen with Clemson/Washington and a scenario plays out where both PennSt/OhioSt get in).
OhioSt fans need to be rooting hard for Wiscy
