For any SEC team with one loss, they very well could be in the mix if they win the SEC Championship. Bama is still the top dog though with no losses.

Oregon and Stanford will play and one of those will go bye-bye. The same for FSU and Clemson... Clemson still has the Cocks and FSU has to go to The Swamp for their last game. Those teams aren't slouches and things happen in rivalry games (especially on the road).

I don't think Louisville is going even if they go undefeated. They play no one and haven't really been that impressive. Ohio State has a very weak schedule too. They have a chance, but they still have to go to the Big House to play Michigan for their rivalry game and could play them again in the conference championship game. There is a ton of football left to play.

Ya I agree, it's def in the realm of possibility. I think LSU is more likely to play for the title than either OSU or Louisville as of right now

It's still possible (for the title game). LSU still has 3 ranked teams on the schedule (including #1 and another in the top 10), plus a highly ranked opponent in the SEC championship (I'd say Georgia in a rematch, but suddenly Mizzou looks to be in serious position to make a run). Coming out of that 12-1, LSU would jump Louisville, and likely Oklahoma and Ohio St.

If Oregon/Stanford go undefeated, we don't pass them. If Florida St/Clemson go undefeated, we don't pass them either. One of those pairs have to disappear in order for any 1-loss SEC team to make it in, IMO. Otherwise, this season will be either Bama vs somebody, or Pac-12 vs ACC.

Right now, my money would be Oregon vs Florida St. I think they both run the table, and either should beat Bama, who I think loses sometime this season anyway.
