The concept of "Eye Test" is very ambiguous


Eye test means Bama has won every game they won by 19 points or more. No other one loss team is close to that and Bama lost to the current #1 team by 5 points

But that Bama team no longer exists, and the committee clearly has written into their standards/bylaws/whatever that they are to take injuries into account.

So, even more so than usual, all that matters is the Auburn game for us, because the key component of the team that won by 19+ points every game isn't playing anymore this season. If we roll past Auburn then maybe there is no drop off. If we don't, or we lose, obviously everything before is heavily discounted. So all that other stuff could happen and it might still not matter.
