Watch what happens, TCU loses, USC West lost, Alabama is in

[NighthawkVol]

No way they put them in with a loss. They don't play anyone.

They beat Texas and KState. Alabama’s best wins are Texas and Mississippi State. Combine having better wins with having 1 fewer loss, I don’t see any argument for Bama.

 

[DaddyChad]

I think TCU is in either way, granted there isn’t a blowout

you still haven’t learned have you. Committee doesn’t follow their own rules. If they can get Bama and Ohio State in they will. It’s not about fair.

Bama winning the whole thing would be the most Tennessee thing ever.

 

[C-south]

Yeah, Tennessee's only shot is Purdue destroys Michigan somehow and it has to be really bad.

It will not matter. The playoff teams are now set. The top 4 seedlings are all that’s on the line now.

Some people just don’t get it.

 

[C-south]

Would LSU beating Georgia strengthen UT’s resume?? Possibly to jump Bama?

Maybe. So we go to the sugar bowl instead of the orange.

 

[CincinnatiVols]

You don't really believe that.

No any team would not but they (TCU) would not have gotten through Tennessee’s gauntlet of LSU, Bama, Kentucky, Georgia, USC Jr. without 2-4 losses

Oh, don't get me wrong. I don't plan on Tennessee in. I also don't think they should, but neither should Bama so meh. Either way, whoever gets four gets blasted by Georgia.

If TCU loses it will be them. If they pull out the win then it’s OSU.

Who did Bama beat? Their best win was against Texas by with Texas' 2nd string QB.

TCU defeated KSU who will be ranked in the CFP Top 10.

TCU had close wins several other teams, but so did Bama ( Texas by 1 pt, a bad TAM at home by 4 with A&M at the goal line as time expired).

One loss TCU > 2 loss Bama.

And, does anyone think the committee wants 2 SEC teams vs 2 Big 10 teams in the playoffs?

 

[fossilfiction]

If TCU loses it will be them. If they pull out the win then it’s OSU.

Now we disagree. If TCU loses, they will put Bama in over them. That's okay though.

 

[Go aeiou]

TCU db punched a KS player, connected, obvious and was not ejected. They called off a safety when TCU qb gripped the ball and stopped his throw. Refs clearly protecting TCU

Well, they are good Christians.

Why is Bama ahead of us?

I think a 2 loss Bama’s only hope would have been to play in the sec championship and win. TCU shouldn’t be punished for playing in a conference championship against a top 10 that they’ve already beaten.

 

[Ovol]

Maybe. So we go to the sugar bowl instead of the orange.

LSU beats UGA, LSU will get the Sugar bowl as SEC Champs NOT in playoffs. Bammer-Orange, we fall back to Cotton.

 

[TennVols12]

Nah, LSU would automatically go to the sugar bowl

Maybe it jumps us up in front of Bama since we beat lsu and lsu beat Bama.

 

[LakeMaryFLVol]

Purdue beats Michigan after TCU loses …then what?

 

[GoVolunteers]

They then get ready for the playoffs as 1-loss top 4 teams.

 

[AthensVol2007]

you still haven’t learned have you. Committee doesn’t follow their own rules. If they can get Bama and Ohio State in they will. It’s not about fair.

Bama winning the whole thing would be the most Tennessee thing ever.

The committee is made up of people with ties to conferences. There are 2 committee members with Big 12 ties; they’re not going to vote Bama over TCU and jeopardize their conference’s payday.

 

[StickMan]

Their SOS is better than UGA’s and UM’s. Y’all really need to stop posting this baseless drivel without looking into things. They already beat this #10 KSU team and beat #20 TX on the road more convincingly than Bama did (going against a backup QB mind you).

Perfectly said.

 

[volz2wallz]

Purdue beats Michigan after TCU loses …then what?

Hopefully this happens and chaos ensues 2mrw...

 

[Sam I Am]

How is Alabama in front of us??? I just looked at their schedule. They have no wins to boast of .....zero. Their best win was the Ole Miss game.

I believe we can do it! If TCU goes down......

Of course, I also believe that Jon Gruden will be our next coach...so..........

 

[ptgrbn]

Purdue beats Michigan after TCU loses …then what?

Then nothing. TCU won’t drop out

 

[ZZ13]

Two simple guidelines would solve all this. You can’t move up on championship weekend if you don’t play. Simple as that. Winner of the conference championship game takes the ranking spot of its opponent if they are lower ranked. Thus, Utah would now be in the 4 spot. Then reseed the top four after the championship games. This would turn the conference championship games into ultra important elimination/advancement games. Essentially the first round of the playoffs. They’d now mean something again.

Under this scenario this year 5-8 would be out no matter what happened in the conference championships, since they weren’t playing.

 

[Thunder Good-Oil]

Then the at-large NY6 bids are down to about 4 with TN, TCU, SoCal, UNC, Michigan, and LSU all wanting one.

Purdue, GA, KState, Utah, and Clemson take 5. UCF or Tulane takes a spot. Bama and Ohio State take 2 of the 6 at-large spots. 4 left to share with 6 or more candidates.
