think so. Would have meant we were 12-1. Still would have gotten in over a 2 loss Ohio State.
You would have been 11-2 chief if you lost the seccg last season.
But it is the loss that is the difference.

So what you're saying is... Ohio State won.
36-16 against LSU is awful.

Putting a beat down on the committee's #4 already did that
Not in the eyes of the committee it didn't. You are #6 and need Texas to beat Oklahoma on Saturday to get in. You also need to hope that if Georgia wins that the game is not close.

Have you NEVER watched an SECCG in Atlanta when Georgia was playing? How many fricking tickets do you think Tide fans get? You come around here posting of things that you know very little about.
Atlanta, Georgia is no neutral site game when Georgia is playing!
Yeah, but it's not that bad. Maybe 60-40

We were #10 with no one even talking about the playoff. We're effectively #5 after Bama stomps your asses out and in a conversation with Oklahoma for #4. Even better is if Texas does what they've already done once this year. We're in, despite Purdue. Despite Maryland. Despite Nebraska. I'd say our ranking fully supports that.

It did. See above.

To make the SECCG, we would have had to beat Auburn.

Don't even count OSU's road win against top 12 PSU or a home win by 25 points against a top 10 Michigan.
On the other hand, if Georgia were to beat Alabama we would have beaten the #1 team in the country with no snafus, really. I mean, LSU, sure, but they sit at #10. it's your losses and close games against really bad teams that count against you, moreso than wins against a
3 loss team and a very good Michigan team. Seriously....if Georgia beats Alabama, who would OSU have beaten that is better than who Georgia has beaten?
And Georgia had no horrible losses or close games against bad teams.
quote:Kudos....but that washes away if Georgia beats #1 Alabama, does it not?
OSU beat a better tean than any team UGA has played by 3 possessions and took a knee at the 5 yard line. Last week

I am just saying a blowout loss shouldn't spell doom for a team, as it clearly doesn't for UGA
It's not just the blowout loss. You lost by 29 to a team that barely is Bowl Eligible while Georgia lost to a #10 team in the country by 20. You don't see the disparity in that? really? Now who is being a homer?

The argument for Oklahoma over Bama if Bama loses in the CCG.
Oklahoma played all 9 teams in the conference. And beat all 9 teams.
As of now, Bama has not played 5 teams from the East (and before you interrupt, a 9 game conference schedule still won't play all teams). 3 of those 5 teams are the best in the East.
Bama is representing the West and playing the East in the CCG.
Treating a Bama loss in the CCG the same or less than Oklahoma's loss to Texas is fallable. It means more.
Bama loses the CCG and Oklahoma redeems it's loss to Texas, and Bama does not get in the playoff.

Yeah. It'll be close enough to where it doesn't really make a difference.

Not exactly. Auburn could have more conference losses than you and you make the SECCG

frick off. If we're changing the results of 20 games, then there's no reason to continue this conversation.Posted on 11/29/18 at 10:30 am to DisplacedBuckeye

Well, yeah. I mean if everybody else loses, then OSU is in. Who said anything different?
But if Georgia beats Alabama, (long shot...yes) then OSU should be prepared to sit at home, probably.
Shoot....if we lose and Oklahoma wins, OSU will probably sit at home. there is an excellent chance OSU is at home again.
I mean,all that has to happen is one of Georgia or Oklahoma win their game and OSU is probably at home. And the reason? That loss to Purdue.

Win or lose to Georgia, bama is a lock. Even before ND.

Not everyone else. That's only to make it a sure thing. Even if Georgia and Oklahoma win, it's a discussion, and no one knows what will happen. Which is the original point. The beat down of #4 completely changed the discussion about Ohio State.

If y’all were #4, ahead of uga and ou, then that idea would be supported. Y’all don’t control your destiny. Y’all need help from Texas and bama.

No we don't. Georgia and Oklahoma wins don't make Alabama and Oklahoma locks for the playoff.

In fairness, the BIG 12 is not a very good conference.
I mean, their #2 team right now has 3 losses, and they don't play defense in that conference....at all.
I mean, I understand that you are saying those would the arguments made, but they just aren't very good arguments.
That said, I can see what you are saying playing out as far as Oklahoma getting in and Alabama being left out. The committee really does not want two SEC teams in there.

It's obvious that you DAMN sure don't want to see Alabama in the playoffs if y'all should win.Posted on 11/29/18 at 10:37 am to DisplacedBuckeye
But you do at 6th and the weaker opponent this week.
Ou winning makes them a lock.
Bama or uga winning makes them a lock.
