Wrong. If Bama barely edges out Mississippi State, and both win their rivalry games the next week, both will be in the top 4 going into conference championship weekend.

I disagree. They are setting up TCU to leapfrog State if MSU loses. They might even drop below ASU. They'll cite OOC schedule or something. This is the current rank. This is not a coincidence:

1. SEC
2. Pac 12
3. FSU because they have to be there.
4. Big 12
5. SEC
6. Pac 12
7. Big 12

They are setting it up to funnel the SEC Champs, the Pac 12 Champs, Big 12 Champs(committee said they would treat TCU and Baylor each as champions if they have one loss) and FSU.
