With USC loss I think Bama pulls more of their votes than OSU, but will it be enough to jump OSU.

Which is completely possible

Who's the 4th team in?

Seems certain UGA and Michigan are in regardless and OSU would seem to be a lock too

But the 4th spot is interesting

1 loss TCU, 2 loss Tennessee, 2 loss Bama...

Who you got?

You son of a bitch.

I was on my way to make this....

Honestly.


Georgia
Michigan*
Ohio State
Tennessee because Bama lost to them.

Again. Though this only happens IF Tcu loses.

Down 14-7 mow

I think i still go TCU but it will be interesting

If we are being honest the only reason this is a discussion is because the 2 loss team is Bama

If you switched these teams resumes and results there isn't a person in the free world who would be advocating for a 2 loss TCU who's best win was over 4 loss Texas to get on over a loss Bama

But we arent being realistic is we try to pretend the name on the jersey doesn't matter

I think 2 Loss Washington also could be talked about because of one thing.

Bama. Doesn't really have a marquee win

Tennessee. They have it BUT their star player that earned them that win is Out for season. I think that will way heavily on Voters minds because you want the best games.

Penn #8. See Bama

Washington#9. Has the Marquee win and is healthyish

It's weird that OSU should get a chance to be in considering that they've been so bad this year, but I'm not sure who else would get put in. But it should be bama. They are for sure the 4th best in the SEC alone.

I see what you're saying. A couple of losses early on, but went on a tear after that. And as I type this, it's looking like TCU is trying to find a way to lose this and make things even tougher. The one thing to take into account is the SEC's popularity. I think the committee would probably rather have another sec team get in as opposed to a BIG or PAC team.

I don't see them putting in a two loss Bama team with no signature wins over OSU. If K State holds on and wins it might push TCU out and put Bama in over them, but two losses is hard to argue against. I can't see moving two teams sitting on the couch this weekend benefitting and going in.

There's really no actual argument to take Bama over TCU even if TCU loses

TCU would still have 1 less loss, a better win, likely the best loss, better SoS

The only argument for Bama is " but it is Bama"

Which, when stuff is mostly equal, mattersa lot

But i just can't see how the committee ignores all that stuff AND then takes Bama over another 2 loss team who beat them


They'd get absolutely crucified

The win versus TEXAS as a common opponent in Austin really helps TCU as well as only 1-loss.

As a horns fan, TCU kicked our asses. Only a fluke meaningless fumble TD late when TCU was about to go up 24-3, made it 17-10 instead.
At no point in time was Texas ever a threat to win.

I feel Texas was the better team versus Alabama though.....even with our second string QB having to finish the second half.
Some questionable calls all went the Tide's way to help them eke out a one point last second win.

I thought the same thing years ago when lsu beat bama and then bama gets into the NC game anyways.

So bad?

They won every single game by double digits until Michigan

TCU would have their first loss in OT. Bama has TWO losses and almost lost to UT. No way Bama should get in even if TCU loses.

And Washington? Another No Way!!!

2 loss teams should almost never get in over 1 loss P5 conf teams. There can be exceptions, of course, but they should be clear and obvious to all.

TCU did enough to lose by such a small amount it won't help Bama...At least i think. It was a tight OT loss...Bama needed a much larger win by KS

Rematch of OSU vs Michigan

TCU will be the 4th spot playing Georgia...
