I see UGA with 2-3 losses


not sure if we'll ever see another SEC team go undefeated in conference. If Georgia finds a QB I could see them doing it but we all have major question marks.

These top 10 teams OOC schedules are fricking pathetic.

Georgia
Marshall, Austin Peay, Charlotte, Georgia Tech

Penn State
Nevada, Villanova, FIU

Tennessee
Syracuse, ETSU, UAB, New Mexico State

Oregon's entire schedule.

If Oregon or Penn State lose more than one game (outside of the Big 10 championship) they shouldn't make the playoff.

KSU punches above its weight as a program. But the playoff is going to make it very hard for a team like that to win.

Texas hasn't lived up to the hype since Vince Young.

If we are being honest the last how ever many years the same group of teams are in the hunt.

The "precision" of these odds is what makes them laughable.

Like anyone can predict within a tenth of a percentage.

Miami has a 3.3% chance. No, that's completely wrong, it's a 3.2% chance.

You know it's going to be a bad year for Tennessee when our chances to win a nattie are barely better than LSUs.

Cry more. The committee has made it clear that its not to any SEC team's benefit to play a tough OOC slate.

Any SEC team still scheduling tough OOC games, simply put, are putzes. The league schedule is usually hard enough (unless you're Texas)

Syracuse, ETSU, UAB, New Mexico State


Yeah those are all gimmes except for Syracuse.

I agree with the sentiment, but it's not the team that schedules the games. LSU's AD should have found a way to replace these tough opening games every year with some crap opponent. Would increase LSU's playoff chances.

There is no reason at all to open against top 5-10 teams like Clemson and Florida State.

1. Texas, 22.2%


Dumb, Archie’s unproven but they’ll make the CFP with that easy schedule

2. Georgia, 17.5%


Gunner Stockton as QB? They didn’t do much in the portal and lost a ton to the NFL

quote:

3. Ohio State, 11.6%


Lost a ton from last year’s team and will be depleted up front, Julian Sayin as QB? Cmon man

quote:

4. Alabama, 10.4%


Based off what? The brand? Gimme a break Alabama is not a stacked loaded team coming into 2025 and is coached by Kalen DeBose, the defense all the gumps rave about got run over by Jackson Arnold and destroyed by Diego Pavia of all people lmaoooo. Outside of Ryan Williams (who concede is actually elite), come on Germie Bernard? Jam Miller? None strike fear in anyone, maybe the Miami transfer does well but that is not a stacked offensive room

did you live under a rock the last 2 years or are you simply retarded?

We didn't win it all but the final 4 is hardly "not living up to the hype".

Who do you support? Reading your history the only thing I can tell is that you are obsessed with texas and have a weird obsession with girls sports.

Drew Allar sucks. He racks up stats against bad teams and folds against good ones.

It's an odd-numbered year.

Auburn has a transfer quarterback.
