K-State and Bama have the easiest schedules imo. I would love to see usc ruin nd's chance and imo oregon has a chance of losing one of the next 2 games. If so, k-state and bama meet for the nc.

I have a feeling ND will lose to USC as much as I hate seeing USC win. I also hope Texas beats KSU - same there hate Texas winning but KSU doesnt belong if they dont play that extra game. Imagine if Georgia beats Alabama hmy:

 

[Vols4life]

I don't see oregon or kansas state or notre dame losing

 

[govols120]

K-State vs. Baylor would feel like a matchup repeat of Oklahoma State-Iowa State 2011 if it wasn't on a Saturday. I do think Kansas State and Oregon make it out unscathed while Notre Dame slips up to USC in Matt Barkley's last home game. Bama and UGA both finish 11-1, UF loses to FSU to finish 10-2.

 

[Vols4life]

the thing about kstate's last two games neither one plays defense at least kstate plays defense....with oregon no one is able to stop them unless you have months to prepare or about 20 plus days

 

[Dudleys87]

If both win out I still think its a Oregon/Bama NCG

 

[CarpetBagger]

Most likely slip up is Oregon; Stanford, Oregon State, and USC/UCLA is a pretty harsh 3 game stretch.

So I'm going with Notre Dame vs Kansas State.

Kansas State seems to be ESPNs darling right now, but I bet whatever team they face; Oregon, Notre Dame or Alabama/Georgia would pulverize them.

Dark Horse NC match up SEC Champ vs FSU. All of the undefeateds lose one, FSU wins out. It's always better to lose early.

 

[thehardknoxlife]

Crazy that 6 of the top 10 teams are SEC teams. 3 teams from both divisions.

 

[HOAV]

How did Bama slip just 3 spots?

all 6 could beat KSU or ND IMO - well maybe not UF

 

[Pulscifer]

ND will lose to USC. I'm praying for an Oregon loss. Can't stand Chip Kelly. I'd like to see Snyder hoist up that trophy.

 

[TrueOrange]

I have a feeling ND will lose to USC as much as I hate seeing USC win. I also hope Texas beats KSU - same there hate Texas winning but KSU doesnt belong if they dont play that extra game. Imagine if Georgia beats Alabama hmy:

At the same time though, they do play an extra conference game (9 total - in a round robin system) rather than just playing 8 and scheduling 4 cupcake/FCS teams

 

[Thrasher865]

How did Bama slip just 3 spots?

They are the best 1 loss team. What did you think would happen?

 

[HOAV]

They are the best 1 loss team. What did you think would happen?

I just figured they would drop further then that.
