Alabama deserves it based on recent history and that I think they're most likely the better team but ND might have the better strength of record there. Would depend on how A&M, UGA, and UNC finish out.

ND could get left out there, for sure. that'd be hilarious
Because people are forgetting about Oregon (if they play more than a few games)...and the so-called emphasis on Conference Champs.
ND might've fricked themselves going all-in with the ACC this year...if ND gets beat badly by a Trevor Lawrence team in the ACC Champ game, voters will be looking elsewhere.
And this season is so screwy the voters might want to spice things up with a BYU.

Who will be Alabama's best win in that scenario?
UGA already has two losses and is clearly struggling on offense, and I don't think A&M is going to hold up as a one loss, top 10 type team.
I don't think it will matter, as I think Alabama is going to win out fairly easily, but in the event of that scenario, Alabama is in trouble. Their SoR wouldn't be that strong for a 1 loss non-conference champion.

Dude, you're overthinking this. 1-loss Bama is just not getting left out over 1-loss ND.
You can argue who should, but I'm telling you Bama would be in without a doubt. They'll tell you it was close after the fact, but obviously that doesn't matter.

Yea, we'll see. Alabama's defense isn't any great shakes this year, either. We'll get in with similar caliber SoR.

Bama is the only team in the Nation that has to lose two games to be left out.
It's hypocrisy and mulligans and lack of Conference Titles but it's just reality.
They say, well they've won all these Nattys.
Shite CFB used to be about you can't stub your toe.
Give any team chance after chance, they can rise to the occassion.
USC in the 2000's was always playing best at the end of the year but they stubbed their toe in 2006 and 2008, same with FSU in the 90's who would only lose to Miami.
If we had played under Bama rules in the 2000's USC would've been in the BCS title game in 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006 and 2008.
Same with Florida State in the early 90's.
There's no parameters like there used to be - winning your Conference, being undefeated, etc.
It's just become generalized reputation and assumptions.

OU got into the BCS with 1 loss no conf champ in 2003. So what were you saying?
quote:
2006
Usc loss 2 reg season games. Bama has never made playoffs or bcs with 2 losses. last year they finished outside of top 10 with 2 losses.
Maybe you should actually research shite before you spew your incoherent nonsense.

BYU would smoke either of them

A&M and georgia are both going to win out and that will be a top 5ish win and a top 15ish win. even if uga loses again, notre dame's second best win will be against a 3 or 4 loss unc team.
is there any reason at all not to expect A&M to win their remaining games or are you just being hopeful?
bama's loss would be to like number 2 florida at that point? why is that not a better strength of record?

Clemson and ND will play again in the playoffs. Guaranteed.
Posted on 11/8/20 at 11:12 am to mizzoubuckeyeiowa
Losers of conference title games shouldn't get rewarded with a playoff appearance, atleast in most cases. Big stakes. Clemson will need to beat Notre Dame convincingly for the Irish to not make the playoff based on the ratings potential that will be there.

It would be this the 3 conference champs and unfortunately Alabama would once again slip in it SMH
OSU vs Alabama
Clemson vs Florida

I see this before championship games.
1. Alabama
2. Notre Dame
3. Ohio State
4. Clemson
5. Florida
Clemson will beat Notre Dame with Lawrence back. The deciding factors will be Florida vs Alabama and Ohio State vs the field.
If Florida beats Alabama in the championship it should be
1. Clemson
2. Florida
3. Alabama
4. Ohio State
The interesting question is what happens if Florida beats Alabama and Ohio State loses a game? Does a 1 loss Notre Dame vs Clemson get in vs a 1 loss Ohio State?

Under your scenario, ND loses a very close game to Clemson, possibly another OT game. Alabama gets handled by Florida because the defense is the worst in years.
ND gets in over Bama. The quality of the loss matters. Plus it would hype Clemson v ND Part III in the CFP.
