I'm simply confused how Bama is in front of us, same record, head to head we won, and we both played LSU.... they lost to em and we skull frigged em

I will hush, I know I'm beating a Dead Horse here

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.
The problem with this is divisions in each conference are not equal. Most conferences are heavily weighted in one division. You are giving a massive advantage to teams that play in the weaker division with worse SOS this way

How though? They are going to lose to K State and not drop at all? For reference, we lost to UGA and dropped 4 spots. They will at least drop 2-3 spots imo
I agree they should drop but when we lost we dropped and became the top ranked 1 loss team. number of spots is kind of irrelevant it’s more about placing within the number of loss teams

😂 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 good old boys gonna good old boy.

Yup. But I like that objective compromise better than full subjective power to a bunch of committee members.

TCU will be in regardless of outcome of this game. It’s tied @ 28 late in the 4th qtr so committee won’t bounce them from playoffs. TCU may even win this game giving Duggan the Heisman

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.
Ok. I guess we will see if TCU loses in OT.

With the game going to OT TCU is definitely still in I think. But they will likely get whooped by GA or MI

TCU is good, not great. With that being said, they appear to be incapable of losing a football game.

What has happened to the QB sneak needing 6 inches to score nobody does it. Seems to be best way to just drive it forward for that distance.
