New Top CFP top 4

[york.adamray]

Georgia, Michigan, USC, TCU.
I believe it should be in that order but could swap USC and TCU. Where does Tennessee land after curb stomping Vandy??

 

[JoAllan]

Georgia
Michigan
TCU
USC

Bama
OSU
Tennessee

Only possibilities I see is OSU maybe ahead of Bama and possibly Michigan ahead of Georgia………Mich has 2 better wins now than Georgia does.

 

[VolunteerVandiver]

Tennessee will be at 7, Bama at 6, and OSU at 5

7th

 

[DiderotsGhost]

The networks were confident about Ohio State getting in (they said 90% chance), but I don't see it.

1. Georgia
2. Michigan
3. TCU
4. USC
5. Ohio State
6. Alabama
7. Tennessee

Ohio State needs USC or TCU to lose to get in.

For the record, I think Ohio State, Bama, and us are all better than USC and TCU, but that's how I think the CFP rankings will shake out.

On the SEC after game show, Chris Doering had Tennessee at #5 ( surprising for an old Gator). Bama at #6 and OSU at #7. One analyst had Georgia at #2 and Michigan #1. Reasoning was to get an SEC matchup for the Natty. Either Bama or us slipping in after conference championships.
Personally, don't see any way that's happening.

 

[Jeff Clark]

1-Michigan
2-Georgia
3-TCU
4-USC

Travesty

If it stays the way it looks now, it's likely some of yall get your wish and we play Clemson in the Orange.

 

[17Vols]

If head-to-head matchups matter, like the committee says it does, we should be at #6, ahead of bama. I have a feeling we’ll be at #7 behind them though…

Hopefully, Clemson will lose to NC and will go to a lesser bowl

With our secondary and overall defense, USC and TCU would kill us. We're having a superb season, but let's be real about who and what we are. I'm just excited to see our name in the top 10 and maybe we draw a team in the orange bowl that won't have a qb that can filet us.

 

[Vanhalo]

Tennessee wasn’t getting in regardless of SC.
And quite frankly our defense couldn’t handle the top 5 teams.

 

[Mccage]

I'll give " regardless SC" a big WTF and quite frankly I don't see the top 5 handling our Offence.

 

[Behr]

Yes we were.

Maybe, but losing in a playoff would've put us at 12-1 instead of 11-2 and would have been better than losing to SC in regular season.

With JOE MILTON at the healm???

Does Clemson get to the orange if they lose to UNC next week? Because I feel like they will.

 

[Behr]

It doesn't really matter anyway.

 

[Behr]

Probably not, but that's the way it looks today.

With Hooker, yes. With Milton, not so sure.

No way osu gets in if tcu and usc win next week. No way in hades

Unless the ACC champ is in the playoff, they are tied to the Orange.

 

[jtdavis]

All we had to do was take care of business and we didnt do that last week. Still 10-2 a great season seeing how two years ago we had the worst season in program history.

 

[Vanhalo]

I don’t think they put a 1 loss non conference champion above USC who finished the season beating ranked UCLA and Notre Dame.

Assuming this plays out…
1. Georgia (undefeated SEC Conference Champ)
2. Michigan (undefeated Big 10 Conference Champ)
3. TCU (undefeated Big 12 Conference Champ)
4. USC (1 loss PAC 12 Conference Champ)

ACC conference champ is out.

You think a 1 loss TN with no conference championship would get inserted into the CFP as a 2nd SEC team?

Maybe I am just a pessimist or had little faith in the CFP committee.


Tennessee football’s playoff chances hurt by Saturday’s slate despite Oregon loss

 

[zydane47]

Top 5

1. UGA
2. Mich
3. TCU
4. USC
5. OSU
6. TN
7. Bama

The committee gonna be praying for a USC/TCU loss, get a two SEC vs two Big Ten teams ratings dream.

I put us above Bama because of head to head, and if some media are saying our SC loss was a fluke then that gives the committee a reason to put us in place to slip right in.
