Buckeyes win out, Bama wins out, and bucks should be in.

Still one more unforeseen upset IMO

WVU? Minnesota? Georgia Tech? South Carolina?

You would think so. I just don't see how a two loss Miami or Clemson gets in over Ohio State if the Buckeyes are 11-2 and B1G Champs. Both Clemson and Miami have a bad loss on the road, so they can't really claim an advantage over OSU's Iowa loss, and obviously the loser of the ACC Title Game won't be a conference champ.

Things are about to get really interesting. Still gotta see what happens with Notre Dame, but not having a conference championship is going to hurt them.

Buckeyes better take care of their business the next two weeks.

The U will fall to #4

Not that it really matters but Michigan not being a ranked opponent for Ohio State but south Carolina being a ranked opponent for Clemson is an absolute joke.

Both 3 losses. Michigan’s 3 losses to top 15 teams. USC’s 3 losses to Georgia (good), Texas A&M and Kentucky.

Damn good point. I never noticed that. They also beat Louisiana Tech by 1

No way is their resume top 25

I said it when they released the rankings. Just another top 25 win for Clemson.

This. Exactly.

Luckily they will fall out of the top 25 once they lose to Clemson, but the damage will probably already be done. It'll be yet another quality win for them, and on the road.

Where the committee places Bama and Miami is huge. Guessing 5th for Bama.

Committee really needs to spend all the time necessary reevaluating everyone’s wins/losses

With a Clemson win:

Oklahoma, Clemson, Auburn, Bama

The more I think about it, the more I think Bama gets left out. They don’t have an overall resume’ and lost their last game of the year. Not a good formula to sneak in the playoffs.

That being said, osu could really use an Oklahoma loss vs TCU.

South CArolina over clemson tonight would fully eliminate the ACC from the equation

McShay thinks if Georgia wins the SEC, they will knock out Auburn and Bama.

This is a mess.

Georgia Southern is 1-9

Georgia Southern’s 1 win was 52-0 over South Alabama

South Alabama beat Troy

Troy beat LSU

LSU will be top 15 if they win

The committee needs to move a undefeated major conference team to top 2.

The only way Bama is in is if the committee doesnt like 2 loss OSU winning B10 title. OSU blows them put again and they might put us in. Gonna have to hang 40+ on wisky
