Bama supposedly will be the #2 seed (12-1) vs LSU #3 (11-1).

Rest of bowl game predictions here --> LINK

He has all 7 SEC West teams making a bowl, and 4 SEC East teams bowling.

I keep forgetting that Clemson going undefeated would mean that the SEC Champion gets sent to Arizona instead of Atlanta. That would suck.

Hopefully the ACC champ takes a loss.

I think there's a damn good chance we see a rematch in the playoffs, either FSU-Clemson or Alabama-LSU.

I think the Big Ten gets left out of the playoff. The Pac 12 obviously could too, with their depth and 9-game conference schedule (plus the one P5 game OOC rule).

Two teams from the same conference could get in this year. Or maybe if a team like Houston goes undefeated, beating Oklahoma, Louisville, and whoever in their conference championship game, they could have an outside shot.

All hell could break loose this year. Seeing so many of these analysts predict 2-3 undefeated conference champions is ludicrous.

I think the Big Ten, Big 12, and Pac 12 champs could all have 2 losses.

That would be awesome.

Here's a nightmare scenario for me, but the crawfishing required would be a small consolation.

12-0 Alabama sits atop the west
11-1 Tennessee meets and beats them in the SECCG

11-1 LSU jumps Alabama into the playoff. So now a team that didn't win their division and lost the head to head is in the playoff. The rant is never the same

So Alabama and LSU have to travel all the way to Arizona to play each other. Nice.

If an 11-1 Tennessee defeats an undefeated Alabama in the SECCG, it won't be LSU jumping Alabama.
