Can Sec get 5 teams in playoffs?

You’ll see.

First I don’t think you’re wrong about the best teams. Ohio state might also be in there with those top four teams. I bet though the sec takes each other out instead of having four sec schools in the final four teams left standing.

LSU could still lose one more and be in…same with A&M/Texas loser…Bama can’t make it in over Vols…that’s the only definite…so if they get in, we are definitely in…at 10-2 that is…Bama is alive but they need some things to go their way already

So if we lose to Georgia but win the rest, and A&M beats Texas, Texas is out at 10-2 but we’re in at 10-2? Nah.

Exactly…way too many uncontrollable things for this to happen

Say what..if we win out we would be 11-1…as for 10-2, both Tennessee and Texas would be in…not sure what you are trying to say…

My mistake, I meant if we win out aside from Georgia. I don’t think we’ll win in Athens and I don’t think 10-2 Tennessee gets in over a 10-2 Texas team.

Both would be in…2 loss Bama would be in trouble then, along with Mizzou etc…if we can get to 10-2, we are going to be good to go, as is Texas

I hope so, but if A&M and LSU have two or fewer losses, along with a plethora of unbeaten and one-loss teams from other conferences, things may get tricky.

These things always work themselves out. We just need to keep winning the games we’re supposed to.

Yep..control what we can control…the name of the game…

Right now, here are the contenders

ACC - Clemson, Miami, Pittsburgh
Big12 - BYU, Iowa State, Kansas State
Big10 - Ohio State, Oregon, Penn State, Indiana, Illinois
SEC - Alabama (still alive but need to win out), Georgia, LSU, Missouri, Tennessee, Texas, Texas A&M
G5 - Boise State, Army/Navy
Other - Notre Dame

There are probably some 1-loss teams that I am missing but this seems to be the pact currently. Big12 has a bunch of mediocre programs so I think they will eat each other. I don't think BYU or Iowa State will hold up.

In the ACC, Clemson looks solid but they cannot afford an ACC title loss. They can loss and win it (get autobid). Miami continues to win and Pitt is unbeaten so curious to see how that turns out.

Notre Dame needs to win out. I am not confident. 1 more loss eliminates them because that NIU loss is really bad (especially since NIU is losing a lot now)

So 4 for the SEC looks good. Biggest issue maybe Indiana or Illinois.

Still a lot of football to be played.

You left out 5-2 Ole Miss. what if they win out including beating UGA in Oxford?

If Miami were to beat Clemson at the end of the year, I’m not sure the Tigers would get in as a second ACC team at 10-2.

SMU and Pitt are still in the running.

We need a OU or UF to upset someone remaining on their schedule.
