There is no data point to move a non-playing team this weekend according to Michigan AD. We appear to be stuck at 8.

I think that means data points for Bama, USC and Miami. There has to be movement based on championships, for instance, PSU and Oregon can’t both be top 4 - someone has to move.

It won’t matter, they already have their built in clause that they’ve been floating all season. Georgia and Penn State could lose by 4 TD’s and they will use the “will not penalize for losing the CCG” narrative.
Tennessee will have to win on the road to advance, plain and simple.

I don’t think a team like ND gets penalized for not playing in a championship either. If Clemson and Oregon win, I don’t see ND getting pushed back 2 spots to 7.

I think it should shake out this way:

No, 1. Oregon. 2.UGA. 3.SMU/Boise 4.Boise/Clemson. All conf. champs.

5. ND. 6.Tx 7. OSU.(if Head to Head over PSU Carrie’s any weight anymore.) 8. PSU. 9. TN. 10. IU 11. SMU/Bama 12. Az St (champion)

I’d like this. Going to PSU for our first playoff game seems retro cool to me. (Wasn’t the first Neyland night game vs PSU?)

Committee probably doesn’t want Conference cannibals or rematches in 1st round, so likely alternative, and where I think we end up, consistent with “not punishing” teams, is this:

5.ND hosts 12. ASU
6. PSU hosting 11 SMU/BAMA(!!!!!),
7. Tx at #7, hosting 10. IU, and
8. OSU hosting 9. UT.

Just watch, bama with 3 losses gonna be the next NC. I'm disgusted too!

No chance! They scored 3 pts vs OU and got embarrased. All good Ds have to do is spy on Milroe and stop the other backs out of the backfield. Bama can't beat anyone throwing the ball that has even a good secondary!

The utter ridiculousness and the fix is in....! Let's see ACC...SMU/Clemson play a tough game, field goal to win (Clemson wins and is in) and SMU stays in. USCjr is........burning down and Bama is out...oh wait, that's good!

We have the opportunity to beat OSU at thier house, then beat 2 more big10 teams on our way to the CHG! I'll take it!

That doesn’t make sense.

Nothing against u but the statement by MIAD is dumb.

It’s not what he said. The conference championships can definitely shake things up. He meant teams like Ole Miss, USCjr, and Miami had no way of passing bama ahead of them since none of them were playing. Basically those guys are eliminated and there is a possibility bama could be as well after Saturday.

We have a chance to do something both funny and unheard of and unite the entire SEC for three straight weeks by eliminating 3/4 of the big ten teams before having an all SEC title game.

I don't get all the angst. I believe we should be hosting. But, based on the way tOSU played this week and have not impressed all season - why can't we just go to Columbus and beat the shat out of em?! No team could make a bigger statement about conference superiority than our Vols. GBO.

I don’t get how Alabama is in and Miami is out. The bias is insane. I’m very objective so someone please help me understand. I don’t get it.

They said Bama has quality wins while Miami doesn’t.

At this point, I’m over it all if these seeds remain the same after Saturday. I love sports, esp college football, but this is a 💩 show and ridiculous biased.

The only solution is it form divisions like the NFL and have division winners and wild cards.

10-2 and Big 12 Champ. I’m not saying they don’t suck, but let’s not act like they’re 2-10.

I watch every b12 game it's lame they can beat overrated psu then play Boise I'd kill for that we get the reward of playing what I believe is subjectively #3 and #1

Columbus in Dec is different than Dec. Plus, Michigan is like Florida vs TN. Day can’t beat Michigan and TN struggles vs Florida.
Plus, they have the best roster in college football.
