Let's Assume Florida and Alabama end up playing for a spot in the playoffs...

What other playoff teams does the rant see as the biggest threat to beat either?

Since Florida and Bama are built fairly similarly as far as strong areas and weak ones, I would assume it would be the same teams. But if you think differently then that's fine.

Pretty much anyone in the top 10 could probably manage their way in if the cards fall right over the next three weekends.

So that gives us Clemson, Ohio State, Oklahoma State, Notre Dame, Iowa, Oklahoma, Michigan State, Baylor, TCU.

Here's the way I'd rank them. And I may be way off, like most of you I don't really keep up with and watch the rest of the country as much as the SEC. And there is a possibility one of these just couldn't get in no matter what, but with the committee I'd assume everyone technically has a shot.

1. Oklahoma - They score a lot of points, have a decent defense. And outside of the loss to rival Texas they have been pretty good. They also have the type of offense and quarterback that at least Bama struggles with.

2. Oklahoma State

3. Clemson

4. Baylor

5. Ohio State (all the talent in the world, but just don't seem to have it together this year)

6. TCU (but this really depends on how Boykin comes back from injury)

7. Notre Dame

8. Michigan State

9. Iowa


ETA: forget TCU, didn't realize they dropped that far.
