Ummm. Your loss was to Clemson. Isn't that the definition of "head-to-head?"


Game was @ Clemson and was decided by 3 points (3pts being home field advantage value)

Neutral site and the 3pt advantage goes away so they have to factor that back in if Dawgs win the rest of the SEC and the CCG. Since it would be ACC vs SEC in the BCSCG I can see it happening as rematch would be neutral site for all the marbles.


Many things would have to fall perfectly for it to happen tho.

That's why I root for all SEC teams not playing Georgia. I'm looking at you (USC/UF)specifically.

Not so much, except the powers want to see Ohio State and Oregon so long as they go undefeated. Alabama will get in grudgingly if they remain undefeated. Beat Alabama in Atlanta and maybe Georgia gets a look. One man's opinion. Good game Saturday, quality win.

Clemson would have wins over y'all, Florida State, South Carolina, and probably a 10 win Miami team in the ACC title game. That's not a bad resume.

Unlikely, in fact there's a reasonable chance that there won't be a SEC team in the NCG this year. If Oregon, Ohio State and Clemson all go undefeated and Bama loses, it will be interesting to see how Bama is ranked thereafter. But yea, if there is only one undefeated team and UGA beats Bama in the SECCG, then I can see it happening.

I don't think you have to worry about that.

Maybe Clemson has escaped their history and won't drop a game or games to mediocre opponents but I'll believe it when I see it.

With an equal record they would deserve to go ahead of GA, though. Head to head has to count.

An undefeated Bama gets in for sure, the interesting pick would be #2. Oregon or an OSU team on a 25 game winning streak?? Would the voters jump OSU over Oregon?

"If you can't beat someone in the regular season, you shouldn't get a re-do with them in the BCSNC game."
-------------------------------------------------

Silly me! I thought the BCSNC was supposed to be between the two best teams in the country, and it obviously wasn't.....what with one of the teams not even being able to get the ball to midfield!

I thought he was paraphrasing Alabama's head coach, something about, if you couldn't win your conference (or division)you shouldn't get a shot at the BCSNC, or something like that.
But we digress...

Depends who voters think has the best shot at wresting the Crystal Ball from the clutches of the SEC if the SEC has a representative in the hunt.

UGA Clemson is a long shot, could happen but very unlikely.

Clemson would need to run the table and finish #1.

UGA would need to run the table and finish #2.

That also means Oregon and Ohio State lose at some point as well.

That's a lot of different ifs.
