Recruiting Football Talk VIII

The highest rated conference champs get the automatic byes.

So, Oregon, Georgia, Boise, and Arizona State are 1-4.

SMU survives and gets left in at #12.
Clemson is just above them at #11.

Notre Dame, Ohio State, Penn State, Texas, Tennessee, and Indiana are numbers 5-10 and I think these games become all about TV, match up intrigue, and not repeating a regular season game.

So, I'm gonna say it's Texas at #5 vs #12 SMU, Ohio State at #6 vs #11 Clemson, Notre Dame at #7 vs #10 Indiana, and #8 Penn State vs #9 Tennessee.

Why would Ohio State jump Notre Dame when neither played
 
I feel like the 1 at round byes are pretty simple: Oregon, UGA, BSU, AZ st.

And I feel like the last 3 spots are pretty simple:
Ind
Smu
Clemson

In between... Lots of discussing needed, if the floor is open for discussion. Personally, I don't think they move a lot around if they stick to what Ward said last week. They have to drop SMU, tx and psu. I don't think you keep ND at 5. And nobody else played. So I see it like this:

Tx
Psu
ND
Osu
TN
 
I don’t care who we play. Our DL will eat vs PSu, OSU, Texas and Oregon
I hope so...going on the road against any of these teams feels like a probable loss to me...a neutral field or at home and I would feel really confident.

We just don't play well on the road against good teams...or even mediocre teams like Arky, or Florida and Mizzou last year.

I hope Heupel can flip that narrative wherever they send us in these playoffs...but I just don't feel confident. We still have a ways to go I think.

But...I really hope I'm wrong, and this team has made me wrong several times this year.

I do know this...if our players play their best...we can beat anybody anywhere anytime.
 
There is not 1 team in the playoffs that scares me. There is really no clear cut number 1 team to me. I will put Tn D up against any of these teams as long as Banks throws away the Ga game plan. I really like our chances If Vandy Nico shows up.
We could win, or lose, any of our potential matchups by 10+ points lol
