Path to the CFP?

[Irishnuke]

We're gonna fuck around and make the playoffs, aren't we?

 

[Irishnuke]

Michigan is going to lose to OSU. Oregon is going to lose to Utah. Oklahoma is going to lose to either Baylor or Okie State. Need Cinci or OSU to drop a game too. Just feels like there's going to be a lot of drama in the next month.

If Utah doesn’t crap the bed, logic would hold up a victory versus the duck squad. Oregon at 4 is effin laughable. The Pac 12 is a joke.

Our best scenario is we win out and stay in the top 10.

Booh!!! Our NC win looks better today our Purdue win looks a lot better today. Wake is out. MSU who sucks is out. They were outgained 2-1 (again) just Over 200 yards of offense again and this time it cost them. They should have lost to Indiana. Cincy closing like a girl so if they lose one game we are jumping them a la FSU in 93. Hope springs eternal today boys. Now let’s get a USC and a WA win!

 

[T-Boone]

The wins over Wisconsin and Purdue are looking okay now.

 

[T-Boone]

How many games could Bama lose and still make it if they beat Georgia?

Georgia, Alabama, Ohio State, Oklahoma

These are the teams we are ultimately competing with for a spot.

The rest are trash. (Oklahoma is trash too, but they will be put in before Cincy.)

 

[GATTACA!]

How many games could Bama lose and still make it if they beat Georgia?

1

You guys are all crazy thinking they get in with 2 losses. Especially since it would set up a rematch in round 1. 0% chance that happens.

 

[pumpdog20]

We should jump Wake, MSU, and Mich on Tuesday. If Washington takes out Oregon we pass them too.

If they lose another game but beat Georgia in their final I would think they get in.

I thiknk we stay behind MSU

 

[pumpdog20]

I thiknk we stay behind MSU

Maybe... but we beat Purdue is my argument

 

[T-Boone]

If Bama hadnt have gotten Jameson WIlliams in free agency they would have had a few loses so far.

 

[GATTACA!]

If they lose another game but beat Georgia in their final I would think they get in.

They wouldn't even make the SEC championship game in that scenario.

 

[Dizzyphil]

Bama is 6 points ahead of the 50th ranked team in the nation. But the committee will look at it as Bama is 6 points ahead of LSU

 

[SBirishlawyer]

Lsu down 8 defensive starters and has a piss poor qb

 

[Irish2155]

Don’t envy the committee this year. Seams like one superior team with a bunch of others who look alike

 

[InKellyWeTrust]

Those that think we still have a chance better hope Ohio St, Oregon, Cincy and Oklahoma all lose another game. It could happen but I wouldn't bet on it.

If it comes down to it the committee will use the eye test and SoS to justify 11-1 ND making it over 12-0 Cincy.

We beat powerhouses Toledo and Florida State by 3.

12-0 Cincinnati is getting in over 11-1 ND

 

[Dale]

Style points don’t matter except as a point against G5 teams. And if they show style points it’s just a weak schedule. So they really don’t matter at all

 

[SBirishlawyer]

Given the current landscape a 13-0 Cincinnati should absolutely stay above an 11-1 notre dame

 

[SBirishlawyer]

Also just to be clear i am 110% a most deserving not best team guy. The farce of this is attempting to go for the best team standard which invites nothing but the eye test. Their is not nearly enough cross conference pollination in cfb for eye test to have any objectivity to it.

Hey! We aren’t suppose to be bringing that shit up! Early season mishaps breaking in new QB DC and OL. Bama is not getting better in fact that win over Florida has negative cache now.

 

[BeatSC]

We get in over Cincy if they have one loss

 

[GATTACA!]

12-0 Cincinnati is getting in over 11-1 ND

It's hard to imagine a scenario where the committee would have to only pick between ND and Cincinnati, but if it did mark my words they'd pick ND.

They're shameless and all about the bottom $.

Lol - strong point that’s hard to counter. In that scenario, I agree, Cincy would get fudged, but I’d take it.

I will note this morning Cincy turned out for Game Day. Very impressive. The parachuters were a cool touch.

And the Irish aren't the 2nd best team in the nation by the committee.....

Not yet but in a month they will be!
