Why is Vanderbilt considered good? They beat a flailing LSU team by 7? They beat a bad Mizzou team? Auburn in OT? Who has Tennessee played and beat? They are equivalent to Pitt.

We’re going to jump Bama who has the same record as us with wins over Georgia, Vandy, Tennessee?

Call me a bedwetter, without any upsets ahead of us, we will miss playoffs if OU and Texas finish 10-2. And Texas could maybe jump us at 9-3 if they beat A&M to end the year.

10-2 Miami ending the year strong also has me worried.
Bedwetter.

9-3 Texas is not jumping ND
If 9-3 Texas with wins over Oklahoma (10-2 in this scenario), Vandy, and either Georgia/A&M doesn’t make it over 10-2 ND (best wins USC, Pitt, Navy) then the committee is just telling these teams don’t schedule anyone OOC. Because 10-2 Texas who plays Ohio instead of Ohio State is getting in.

Sucks having to rely on Rileys USC to keep winning so we have a quality win

If they were ignoring the Ohio State loss, Texas would already be ranked ahead of us.

What people don't understand is the committee factors in style points. They don't see Texas beat Mississippi State and Kentucky and write them off. They saw how they struggled. If they win out they will be in. They aren't winning out because Arch sucks but if they find a way to get in, they will earn it.

I really can't believe we beat Pitt by 3 scores (4 scores but for a cheap garbage time TD) and this thread is a small group of panicky doomers bringing down the fucking vibes. Get that fucking loser ass shit out of here, it's bad energy. Jesus, the games aren't even over. Alabama could easily beat OU, they're down by three points!

If we win out and somehow get left in the cold, I'll be upset, but I'll cross that bridge when we come to it. I'm not gonna fret about it for the next 3 weeks.

And Bama is moving the ball to go up or tie Oklahoma into half. They scored on two turnovers.

There are probably some crazy 3 way ties possible if they lose to Purdue. There is a path where Ohio State, USC/Oregon, Michigan, and Indiana all have one loss in the Big 10.
This why this super conference stuff is bullshit

Aaaand of course he misses it. Bama has been an absolute circus act today.

Ty Simpson's throwing mechanics should be an interesting topic among NFL scouts.

I do think it’s shaping up that a 2 loss team, with a legitimate case resume, could be left out. Last year it was some mediocre 3 loss SEC teams that were bitching but nobody really took them seriously.
