Of course, not everyone will go undefeated. One or two probably will though. 4 of the last 5 years we've seen at least 2 undefeated teams in the playoffs, and two of those years had 3 undefeateds. My whole point was that coming up with upset city scenarious where everyone has multiple losses and chaos ensues isn't very likely.

sorry I was going from memory. Sue me for not remembering texas's schedule off the cuff.

You would have a 11-2 Texas that wouldn’t make it with 2 less than ideal losses.


Right I messed up earlier, in this case texas is a non factor with 2 losses and no conference title.

don’t think UGA dropping from #1 would fall behind a 1-loss Louisville that got beat by a horrible Pitt team and only 1 big win



it's all speculation of course, I'm just going by what the committee has done in the past. Never in playoff history has a team that didn't win its conference made the playoffs over a conference winner with a similar record. Granted that doesn't mean they HAVE to that in this scenario, I'm just going by the precedent that's been set.

Committee just put 2 loss Missouri ahead of Louisville…..

Based on last night, Looks like if Louisville beats FSU, UGA could still make the playoffs with a close loss to Bama.

OSU/Mich
Washington
Bama
UGA

And there is still a couple weeks to play to make it even more of a chance….

Again, I think Kirby has these boys firing on all cylinders and will win the SECCG, but just answering the OP saying it’s not necessarily a win or go home game yet
