So is the theory that the CFP rankings leaked to oddsmakers? (Have they even voted yet?) Or oddsmakers are just guessing that Bama will jump ND?

Okay

Last year the committee did drop several CCG losers by 1 or 2 spots (Texas, PSU, and SMU). But none of them dropped out. I'm not convinced they will never drop a CCG loser out, as some people think, and Bama already has two losses. But they are playing UGA (not, say, a team ranked 15 or...

Kiffin suggested that the Ole Miss players wanted him to continue to coach. Apparently that is inaccurate.

That isn't going to fix the OU/Bama/Miami/ND logjam unless they drop to 11 or something.

I don't think a program with any self-respect can let a coach who is leaving for a peer job at a rival (i.e., not a coordinator leaving for a HC job somewhere) continue to coach through the playoffs. I don't know why Saban and co. are saying Ole Miss should have agreed to that, other than the...

I don't have ESPN so I listened on the radio but I heard it was basically a Stanford infomercial + discussion about why ND shouldn't be in the playoff? Oh, and it ended at 2am. I'm sure the 95% of people watching who are ND fans appreciated all that.

If we can beat OSU at all (unclear) we have as good or better a chance in the second round than later on. And if we can't beat them, I'm not sure anyone else can. I wouldn't think the odds of them getting bumped are much better than the odds of us beating them.

Yeah because they've won their games since the rankings began

Okay?

Yeah, I don't think a garbage time TD will be the thing that keeps us out

Okay? So that means we're out?

Okay

Yeah that's what Ross Dellinger said here.

Okay

Yeah, but that was with a four team playoff. That wouldn't happen now.

Someone -maybe Lax- posted that the ACC deliberately designed their conference schedule to create confusion and get multiple teams in. If that's their goal, they wouldn't swap Duke for Miami.

Okay

ND and Miami should both be ahead of OU. And Bama, frankly. But I doubt that happens.
