One where we don't play UGA in Atlanta. Sorry guys, I'd rather see another team there, even if they lose to AU.

If option A happened I would fap til my dick fell off. I hate the damn leg humpers worse than Bama. I respect Bama, not their fans, but the team and Saban. fricking UGA just sucks. Their fans suck, their team sucks. frick them.

I 100% agree with this. This is the thing that worries the most about possibly expanding to an 8 team playoff. It will only gives the talking heads more opportunities to make excuses about how Alabama/Ohio St./Oklahoma, etc. lost their games, but still have the most talent in the country and therefor are the "best" team.

If the playoff ever expands it better be set up where the 6 conference winners get automatic bids + 2 at large, or games during the season will lose a lot of meaning and you will see a lot more big names in the playoff.

Sorry for the tangent. The answer is obviously option A.

Option D.

Auburn runs the table and dominates every opponent.

Bama implodes during the season and Auburn wins IB 56-0 (payback for 1948)

AU vs UGA in SECCG; AU 45, UGA 7.

Playoff #1: AU 38, FSU 3. (Payback for 2013)

NC Game: AU 51, USCw 0 (payback for 2003 & 2004)

My ideal scenario is Bama loses a close FSU, narrow victory margins leading up to Iron Bowl so they are 10-1 on the fringe of a playoff birth likely around 3-5

Their reputation + Bama bias makes people blind to their actual quality and they somehow are favored against an undefeated AU team at home. People expect Bama to win and still think they "are the best team in the country"

Auburn then soundly beats them by 50 on their march to a NC

The final blessing would be Bama making the Suger Bowl and playing Utah and losing by 30+

Seriously?

Don't we already ruin Bama's NC dream with the IB win?

Option C
Bama and AU both undefeated coming into Iron Bowl, Bama #1 and AU #2
AU wins, but Bama gets in CFB as #3 seed
AU beats UGA in SECCG
AU and Bama both win semifinals
AU beats Bama for NC and finishes 15-0


I had a dream about this once!

There can be NO BETTER scenario.

Which would you choose?

Option A
AU goes undefeated in regular season, meets UGA in SECCG, wins and goes on to win NC

PRO: Beating UGA twice in same season

OR

Option B
AU and Bama go into IB undefeated. Bama is 1 and AU is 2. It's a close game, but Bama wins and goes on to win SECCG. However, due to records AU ends up 4 and plays and beats Bama in the playoff and goes on to win NC.

PRO: Destroying Bama's hopes and dreams


Plenty to worry about before we even start thinking about UGA or Bama. Let's worry about Clemson first and then LSU. Must win at least one of those two to even be in the conversation.
