I agree PSU wont drop out of the top 10 with a loss, but I have to assume a 2 loss OSU team will. Gotta hope PSU pulls off the upset. As of now I assume ND will be fine, but If they keep a 2 loss OSU team in the top 10, it could be an uphill battle making the playoffs because there will potentially be a lot of 2 loss teams they could put ahead of us if that is the case. Then we'd have to worry about Bama/LSU, TN/GA, TAM/TX, etc.

Just made one where OSU, aTm, KState, and Clemson run the table for conference champions, and then had:

12-1 Oregon, 11-1 PSU, 11-1 Indiana
12-1 Miami, 11-1 Pitt
12-1 BYU, 11-1 Iowa State
11-2 UGA, 10-2 Bama, 10-2 Tex, 10-2 Tenn
11-1 ND

12 teams all arguing for 7 spots

yep.

ND would get in because they beat the SEC champion at their stadium in that scenario. I can't see 11-1 Pitt make it either, seeing as they barely get any respect right now and they're undefeated. IU might not either.

I saw a scenario where a SEC team finished 11-1, but with tie breakers, didn’t get in the SEC title game.
So that team gets in along with the other two for sure with no risk of losing a second game.

Connor Weigman is transferring to Houston lol

Brutal lol

Connor Weigman is transferring to Houston lol

And if he lights it up he’ll transfer back to an SEC or ACC school the following season. If it continues to go south, he can go down to a G5 school.

Weigman is better than Reed IMO

 

[IRISHDODGER]

Weigman is better than Reed IMO

I tend to agree. Regardless, I think Elko’s mishandling of the QB room did his team in.

 

[IAIrish]

Weigman is better than Reed IMO

With ya. Unless he improves a ton, which is completely possible since he's young, Reed doesn't scare me as a trigger man.

 

[texbender]

He's from suburban Houston, not a bad place for him really. And BIG12 offenses/defenses more to his liking.

I completely forgot UH is now a P4 school

Now?? Houston was in the old Southwest Conference, played Texas, Arkansas, A&M and the like. The Irish played them in the Chicken Soup Bowl in 1979.
