Most likely.....

Saw we are #8 do we host?

Likely so with a win

 

[volfan102455]

Hosting depends upon where the 4 teams that get byes are located at.

Saw we are #8 do we host?

Only if the conference winner with a bye is ranked higher.

 

[UT97Vol]

We still need help. We need a loss from an at large in front of us.

 

[temptn]

They basically just took the AP top 25 and called it the CFP.

 

[C-south]

Saw we are #8 do we host?

Nope

 

[Prayivm3rcy]

We would be playing Georgia on the road. Honestly gotta root for Georgia to win out.

 

[volmanbill]

Ranked 8, seeded 9 with a trip to Athens for the 1st round.

Best bet would be Georgia winning in Atlanta over Texas. Removing Texas from the Conf Champ line means they would have to drop back to the 5-8 range for host teams..... Committee just did rankings tonight based on who they think are best.

 

[JMSqb11]

Penn State not getting dropped at all is a joke......

 

[Stoerner Fumbles]

We’re seeded 9 and the season isn’t over yet. Texas is probably not going 2-0 against A&M and GA.

Boose stYe would jump us and push us to 9

 

[VolCalls]

For us to host we need to be ranked #7 or higher in the final rankings, because the #4 seed (Boise State most likely) will be ranked below us and will leapfrog us in the bracket since they will automatically get a bye.

 

[Estalcup]

I want to be the #5 seed. And bama looks like they will sneak in

 

[BigOrangeMojo]

Realistically, need ND to lose this weekend to get home game

They'd prolly flip us and GA if they lose SEC Champ to Texas/aTm....

Gotta beat Vandy first

 

[easttnbuck]

We got nearly.zero shot of that.

Not yet

It is very wild that Indiana e

Georgia winning the SEC is a good start for us..... Committee having to drop back Texas to the non conf champion bye line makes our argument a bit better....

I think everyone is going to whine and moan about a rematch with Georgia, but I don't know any oddsmakers who are favoring Texas in a rematch with Georgia..... Tennessee playing at Georgia for the first round has to be one of the least probable, most commotion causing outcomes they are talking about

I dont see that happening. Virtual impossibility.

No way we will be 5 seed

 

[LegionnaireOfTheMiserable]

We would be playing Georgia on the road. Honestly gotta root for Georgia to win out.

Or root against them to lose out

I agree, I think Georgia will end up as the #2 seed by winning the SECCG.

This is the most least probably scenario to happen where we have a rematch with Georgia first round of playoffs.
