8 and above are almost locks - (baring somebody losing twice) gonna be interesting to see what the committee does!

From NCAA prediction site :

2024 College Football Playoff rankings predictions: Week 12 Top 25 projections​

These predictions are as of Sunday, November 10.

  1. Oregon (10-0) LW: 1 — As long as Oregon keeps winning, the Ducks will stay at the top.
  2. Ohio State (8-1) LW: 2 — A shutout win should put to bed any argument over who should be No. 2 in the country.
  3. Texas (8-1) LW: 5 — Expect Texas to move into the top three after Georgia and Miami lost.
  4. Tennessee (8-1) LW: 7 — Tennessee's win over Alabama got more juice after the Tide beat LSU. That small boost will move Tennessee into the top four for the committee.
  5. Penn State (8-1) LW: 6 — Penn State won its whiteout game against Washington and will move into the top five.
  6. Indiana (10-0) LW: 8 — Is a win over Michigan enough to move Indiana into the top five? I don't think so, especially not in front of a Tennessee team with a win over Alabama.
  7. BYU (9-0) LW: 9 — BYU won a nail-biter over Utah in the Holy War, but I don't think a close win will cause the committee to drop the Cougars below a two-loss team.
  8. Alabama (7-2) LW: 11 — Alabama should be the No. 8 team in the country after dominating LSU in Death Valley. Until someone ahead of the Tide loses, I don't think the CFP committee can overlook their two losses.
  9. Georgia (7-2) LW: 3 — Georgia was ranked above Miami last week, and it'll stay above the Hurricanes after losing to a ranked opponent. However, the Bulldogs will fall below Alabama because of head-to-head.
  10. Miami (9-1) LW: 4 — Miami's loss to Georgia Tech on the road is better than Notre Dame's loss to Northern Illinois at home. Luckily for the Hurricanes, Notre Dame is a floor in these rankings.
  11. Ole Miss (7-2) LW: 16 — Ole Miss will be the last at-large team in the bracket this week after handily beating Georgia. South Carolina should be ranked too, giving the Rebels another ranked win on its resume.

Still don’t think Texas should be ranked as high as they are. They definitely benefit from an easier schedule and the only hard game they played they got exposed. Ik you have to play who’s on your schedule but until they beat someone with a pulse I won’t be convinced they are as good as advertised.

We have just about the same exact schedule as Texas… swap NC St & Michigan and then Bama & A&M

Having these shows weekly is just silly. The regular season still has Tennessee-Georgia, Ohio State-Indiana, Texas A&M-Texas… and that’s before we even get to conference championships. These brackets may as well be promoted as “here’s something that definitely won’t happen”.

They want to do 4 sec 4 big 10.
Texas
Bama
Georgia if we loose
Ole miss
That’s exactly what they’re going to do. It’s such horse crap, to scared to go 5 sec and 3 big 10 even tho that’s the way it should be

Unfortunately at the moment the Alabama win is like the entirety of Tennessee's resume. After that the next strongest win is...what, either 5-5 Oklahoma or 5-5 NC State.

Looking more at it...after Alabama and Georgia, there's currently a good chance that Vanderbilt (even at 6-5) is going to be the 3rd strongest team Tennessee will be playing on this year's schedule.

Agreed, gotta win out. Our defense is doing great but our offense has been less than. If it comes down to it a 2 loss bama and a 2 loss TN they will be in ahead of us just with there roster talent. He'll they could win the natty!
