I do think Alabama could lose in the playoff.

But they would beat Ohio State.

Michigan State and Oklahoma would be tough back-to-back opponents.

I agree.

And while I also agree that the SEC is down, so is just 'bout every other conference this year. PAC-12 champ will have at least 2 losses, OU is the only Big 12 team with just 1 loss (and they lost to a bad Texas team), the SEC and ACC are favored (if Bama & Clemson win their CGs) to have only one team with a single loss...and while the Big 10 will likely be the only conference to have multiple 0-loss / 1-loss teams, the only one of those to play a decent OOC opponent is Michigan State.

There's no dominant team this year and I'd say just 'bout any of the teams that can reach the play-off could win it all...with the possible exception of Iowa...but as crazy as this year's been, that wouldn't surprise me either...
