No conference championship game to play.
Win and in. LSU being 6th really helps.

Yeah, Hubbs predicted that USC would jump LSU to pave a path for USC to get in if they win the PAC 12, but that didn't happen. Of course Americans love conspiracy theories. Maybe the committee isn't as crazy as we make out to be.

That would be USC’s second ranked opponent they’ve won against. Would prolly knock ND to 20-25 range with Oregon State. Not sure that is enough to overcome LSU’s wins over Ole Miss and Bama with a loss to #5 Tennessee.

What if TCU, and USC lose. LSU beats UGA on the final play, and tOSU beats Michigan real bad. It could be UT, UGA, LSU and tOSU in the playoff.

Oregon should take care of USC

They may not even play Oregon. Oregon/Utah play this weekend, with the winner likely going to the P12 title game. It would probably be best for anyone not wanting USC in the playoff to hope they play Oregon. A title game matchup against Utah would give them the opportunity to avenge their only loss of the season.

My nerves won’t let me believe it but I think we might be in. Here’s what I think happens everything stays the same until the last week. Whoever loses between Ohio state and Michigan falls out and whoever wins takes #2. TCU moves to 3 and we move to 4. TCU loses in the conference game and we move up to 3. I don’t see TCU not making the playoffs unless they put the loser of Ohio state and Michigan. The committee wants to see Tennessee and Georgia in a neutral site. The only thing that screws us is if LSU upsets

Good point. I just like Oregon at home after a loss. Don't know what their record is after a he loss, but without a doubt Utah could take em down.

What makes you think that? The committee clearly thinks LSU has done more than USC. I don’t see USC jumping us or LSU if they win out.

They have done more, to this point in the season. If USC wins the next two weeks, they’ll jump LSU. It may happen as early as next week if they beat UCLA this weekend.

We (the SEC) have established dominance over the PAC 12 this year.. 3-0 including victories over 2 of their top 4 teams. 11-1 in the SEC is undoubtedly better than 11-1 in the PAC 12. Their championship game doesn’t change anything
