I look for Missouri to take a step back. They caught lightning in a bottle. They'll do good to win 9.

But they do look a bit lighter.

I am hoping Sec gets 5 teams in most years…any Sec team that is 10-2 should be guaranteed entry along with possibility of a strong 9-3 team. For next year I’d say Uga, Texas, and Bama are prob in. Followed by Ole Miss, Vols, Mizzou, Lsu and Oklahoma for 1-2 spots.

Bunch of seniors. Missouri doesn't reload like a top 10 team. Everyone will figure that out next year.

 

[Rocky Top T]

If we win 10 games, we have a good chance. But, I expect at least 3 losses. Hope I'm wrong.

12

The way the SEC is setup now. I think undefeated seasons will be even harder, I dare say seeing 10-2/9-3 may become a thing in the SEC fighting to get into the PO with B1G teams being undefeated or 1 loss. Guess we'll have to see how the committee weighs SoS and even that needs some adjustment other than rankings
One thing for sure is GA isn't going to have it easy in 24

 

[TheFlash1971]

Texas, Tenn, Ala, Ga, Oklahoma
BigTen gets Mich, OSU, USC , Washington
That leaves 3 spots one ACC, Big12 and of course a group of 5 sacrificial lamb to the Team who is number 5.

Bold take, but I could see it happening. Georgia plays Clemson, at Bama, at Texas, at Ole Miss, and Tennessee. Could easily get 3 losses.

 

[snake]

I can see 4 to 5,could there be as many as 6?

Georgia, Alabama, Texas, Tennessee. Maybe Ole Miss, but I foresee a culture problem flop season brewing there.

Remember, there will only be 4 power conferences, so room for more from each conference. You’ll have 5 automatics with the G5 team + the P4 champs. That leaves 7 at-large. I could easily see the SEC getting 3-4 of those at large. Could work out as follows:

SEC: 5
B1G: 3
ACC: 2
B12: 1
G5: 1

The Big 12 will be weak.

i hope that's the case but their schedule is easier than ours next year

 

[VFL-82-JP]

Four. Tennessee, Ole Miss, Missouri, and Bama. No UGA next year,

Remember that one crazy-awesome year Arkansas recently had, Sam Pittman's first year, before it all came tumbling down again for them?

I think that's Mizzou. This year the stars aligned for them, they had a really great year...and next year they're back to mediocre.

So I agree four, but put UGa in place of the Tigers of the mid-west. And Texas or LSU in place of Ole Miss.

Go Vols!

 

[Zues1]

There will be many teams at 9-3 on the outside looking in.
Understand the networks want West coast, mid West and northern markets in.
My guess is 4 max...Better have 10 wins

 

[DarkVolder]

Georgia, Bama, Ole Miss and LSU

 

[aRmo]

UGA, Bama, Ole Miss and maybe Texas will make the 12 team playoff next year. Vols will go 8-4 again.

 

[KeyVol14]

Not sure but I expect TN to be one of them. Nico and James Pearce are foundational pieces at two of the most important positions on the field.

 

[GreveHaller]

If you thought there was controversy this year with 4 teams just wait for the cluster f____ next year with 12. Every mediocre team will be sobbing how unfair 12 is

Go look at Mizzu 2024 schedule. It is as easy as an sec schedule could be

 

[hog88]

The SEC will get 3 at most in the playoffs next season.

 

[HuntlandVolinColo]

Texas, Tenn, Ala, Ga, Oklahoma
BigTen gets Mich, OSU, USC , Washington
That leaves 3 spots one ACC, Big12 and of course a group of 5 sacrificial lamb to the Team who is number 5.

except uscWest. uscWest and ND are always overhyped and underperform. I'll go with 2 from the ACC: FSU and Clemson.
OkSt and a Kansas team from the B12. Maybe a Liberty or Boise State type Cinderella slips in.

 

[MountainDooley]

It’s not going to be as easy to make it in the playoff as some think. The guaranteed spot for a non power 5 school and conference championship game winners will lead to teams being left out that are ranked inside the top 10 some years. Guaranteeing spots prevents the actual 12 best and most deserving teams from getting in and leads to a watered down product.
