Is Arkansas a better loss than OU? Seems like we all thought we'd probably lose 2 of 3 to Bama, UGA or OU. Swap OU for Arkansas now. Is Arkansas better than OU this year?

Committee saying championship games will be evaluated.

Let's hope Team A wallops Team B and we move up. Maybe get a home game when all is said and done.

Yea…. I always assumed it was P4 plus one G5 get auto bids but after reading it again it says “5 highest ranked conference winners” so I assume if the scenario played out where army does win out and Boise and Army are both ahead of the B12 winner they both get auto bids and B12 likely left completely out

 

[mr.checkerboards]

does the P4 get auto bids? What Army wins out annd jumps above the B12 winner? Will Boise and Army both get in? Or is P4 winner auto bid and the highest ranked G5 team?

The wording is 5 highest ranked conference champions.
Everything else is supposed to be at large

Army over ND, Ohio St BIG over Indiana

I will believe it when I see it with Indiana. I think they are in regardless.

ND will make a joke out of Army

Yea, so there is a scenario where Army and Boise both get auto bids. Not likely but still possible

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Don’t need Auburn over Bama

That was an either/or

 

[JCP201]

So, we root for Army, Ohio State to win Big and Florida? What else? Get rid of Boise and BYU, while Penn State needs to lose to Minnesota (I think that is who they play) These rankings don't make sense.

 

[Kamaras gold teeth]

Does Army jump into the playoffs though if they beat ND and remain undefeated?

I believe that Notre dame would fall out and Army would be the G5.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Yea, so there is a scenario where Army and Boise both get auto bids. Not likely but still possible

Yup.

 

[TheBigOne10]

Warde Manuel is a fat head. What a joke these rankings are. Honestly it’s so flawed that it’s hard to be upset.

The ducks keep biting him.
I should have known this would happen.

He's pure bread.

Doesn't work that way for Tennessee. I don't think our remaining schedule will move us up regardless of margin of victory. We have to hope for someone ahead of us to lose.

Sorry my blue font didn't get added...yep, i'll take some combination of...

Indiana getting blown out
miami taking an L
army doing something funny vs nd
sc winning the jeweled shillelagh
kentucky pulling off another upset vs tu
a nice iron bowl surprise
some roll boomer fun
gators taking down the black bears
carson beck getting ramblin wrecked
gophers exposing the paternos

I'm not sure about most competitive, but I hope Army makes it. Wish Navy was having a better season. I don't really cheer for any other college team than Tennessee, but the service academies are different. They represent our military men and women who serve this country, so yeah, I do kind of cheer for them. And I was a Navy brat myself, so I have a soft spot in my heart for Navy.

Told our kids we always cheer Tennessee but we don’t boo, Army-Navy-Air Force
These young men may be ask to lay down their lives for us. Mad respect

ACC is a 1-bid league anyway. Miami losing will provide no benefit

The CFP committee needs an overhaul. These peeps are bad at this.

 

[JCP201]

and go Kentucky.

 

[JCVol00]

Presuming we take care of business the next 2 weekswe are rooting for:
Florida > Ole Miss
Indiana blown out by osu
USC > ND
OU > Bama

 

[JCVol00]

Food for thought, what if Indiana beats OSU? Would OSU fall out of the playoff convo?
