Just….no…worst they’d have is a split with UGA and that holds a lot of water. Their resume should hold serve already.

There are a lot more teams with similar records this year. Say Alabama stays at #10 in Tuesday’s rankings but lose next weekend and BYU wins. BYU will “move up” and grab a spot, while seed #’s 11 and 12 will go to James Madison/AAC Champ/ACC champ. What do you think happens to Alabama in this scenario?

See a lot of people bringing up last year with SMU not being punished for losing the ACC Championship game to Clemson, but there is a big difference between last year and this year. SMU had 2 losses after losing to Clemson compared to the SEC teams with 3 losses they were compared against. This year, they would hypothetically be comparing a 3 loss Alabama to multiple 2 loss teams.

If BYU wins the Big 12 and Alabama loses to Georgia, you think a 3 loss Alabama gets in over a 2 loss Oklahoma that just beat them on the road? Or a 2 loss Notre Dame on a 10 game win streak? Or even a 10-2 Miami? I can absolutely see Alabama dropping out of the playoff field.

Does Duke get in over the other G5 champ or does the ACC get left out?

Think these would be locks for the playoff:

Ohio State
Indiana
Oregon
Texas A&M
Georgia
Alabama
Ole Miss
BYU
North Texas/Tulane
James Madison (should be a higher rated conference champion than Duke)

Which means 2 spots for:

Oklahoma
Notre Dame
Miami
Texas Tech
Vanderbilt

These Auburn receivers suck.

Not college football, but Kendrick Perkins is the absolute worst commentator on television.

I know I’m beating a dead horse here but frick Notre Dame. These assholes who play such a boring brand of football with no conference affiliation are always put on a pedestal and taking playoff spots from other teams. I would rather see The Citadel in the playoff than these shitheads.

One of the most interesting scenarios right now is what happens if A&M goes 12-0 and loses the SEC champ game. Would the committee drop us out of the top 4? If so, it massively damages championship games.

---

If Ohio State, Indiana, and A&M go into conference championship weekend undefeated, they will all stay in the top 3 regardless if they lose or not.

The only movement I can see is Texas Tech taking #4 Georgia’s spot if they win the Big 12 and finish 12-1.

How is Venables above Cignetti lol

How so? Texas Tech can do some serious damage this year. I honestly probably put them only behind Ohio State and Georgia.

A few other thoughts.

Texas is eliminated.

Will be real interesting to see if Alabama makes and then loses the SEC Championship. I know there was precedent last year regarding a conference championship loss with SMU but I have a feeling this year could be different and they could slide out for a 2 loss Miami, Utah, or BYU.

CYPB is cracked too. My palate isn’t terribly refined when it comes to bourbon, as 90% of my alcohol consumption is beer, but these were really tasty. As of now I think the 107 is just as good, but I’m eventually going to try these side by side and see if I can pick up any differences/nuances.
