re: Does the new CFP ranking mean we have a chance to become L9U before the season is over?

Incredibly unlikely, sure. But no such thing?... Ever?

Sounds like the committee is leaving the door open for LSU.
Bama needs that automatic win

Please make it happen.

Such an easy first round win.

Please for the love of everything holy let this happen. Even better let there be so much chaos that LSU is ranked 2 or 3 and win their semi final. Another rematch arse whippin for the national title would create such an epic meltdown around here!

I can't even manufacture a scenario where LSU would backdoor their way in.

If Michigan loses, Ohio State goes.


Whoever wins the Michigan/OSU game would have to lose the Big 10 championship.

If ND loses, the B12 champ goes.


Notre Dame might even have to lose twice to drop below LSU. You're probably right about the Big 12. Even if they knock each other off and produce a 2-loss champion that champ will probably go before LSU.

If other chaos happens, Wash St goes.


True, LSU would need them to lose again.

quote:

If even more chaos happens, you have to finally let UCF get a crack.


UCF isn't getting in.

quote:

Clemson is in regardless. They won't drop past 4, even if they lose the ACC championship somehow.


True.

And you haven't even mentioned the possibility of Georgia beating Alabama and both making it ahead of LSU. So yea that's a lot of "ifs" that aren't happening and I think we're still short on spots for LSU

I disagree with this. Committee has been pretty firm on strength of schedule this year.

Would pretty much have to have OSU beat Michigan, then Northwestern Beats OSU in Big Championship Game, then OU and WVU lose another game. ND loses to Syracuse and USC, and UCF loses. Then Wazzou loses PAC-12 CG. See easy!

And they'd have to cheer for Alabama to beat Georgia.

Ohh so you weren't specifically trying to imply that ND dropping a game this late in the season wouldn't keep them out of the playoffs?

Because if they lose, they are out. Period. End of story. No "might".

Agree, LSU has the inside track to the #4 seed. Can't wait.

The quicker we get to 10 in a row the better. L10U isn't very aesthetically pleasing.
