re: Most likely semifinal opponent when/if Georgia beats Bama

I think Alabama is the greatest threat to another title run. If we get by them, I'm not worried about any of the other contenders.

The Big Ten has had circular reasoning used to prop up all their rankings. They are a horrendous conference outside of Michigan and OSU, but pre-season hype rankings made OSU wins over ND and Penn State look way better than they were. ND was shown to be meh and Penn State's offense would make Brian Schottenheimer blush. Michigan coasted until November, and then got to clean up "high ranked" wins over Penn State and OSU. The defenses might be good, but there's not a single offense in the Big 10 that is scary.

Oregon has been putting up video game numbers, but I just saw 8 of their 11 opponents (saw this before game 12) have a defense ranked 88th or worse (Avg. defense faced is 96th in the country). They've faced two Top 50 defenses and no top 25 defenses. (Shoutout College Football Nerds)

FSU is not a worry without their QB and Texas hasn't looked stellar much of the year, outside of catching an Alabama team that was still finding itself.
