Auburn, Ole Miss, Georgia or LSU in the playoff rankings?
Arizona State is 8-1 but they lose at HOME to UCLA by a score of 62-27.
UCLA barely got by Memphis in Los Angeles, winning by 7.
Ole Miss handled Memphis by 3 TD's, 24-3.
Ohio State is getting the same treatment by the media. They lost by 2 TD's at home to ACC Coastal Division cellar dwellar Virginia Tech.
Anti-SEC bias is ruling the playoff committee

Uh, LSU has three losses, and in one of those they lost huge. Auburn looks shitty on random days, Georgia too. Ole Miss is just mediocre in general.

LSU lost by 5 tds to auburn, uga got housed by Florida. LSU has 3 losses, we have two. ASU definitely deserves to be ahead of those two teams.

ASU has shown it was an anomaly and the committee seems to be factoring injuries heavily.

They're so scared of being labeled biased that they bump up all of the other conferences to avoid criticism. Like you said when UCLA or Oregon struggles against Memphis or WSU respectively it is hardly talked about at all. But when Alabama or Mississippi State struggle against Arkansas they get torn to shreds. Every game involving an SEC contender is under a microscope and fans will point out any little flaw

Well... handled is such a strong word. Defense definitely did their job

Outside of the top 4 it doesn't matter what the ranking is really. Might as well avoid the bias claims.

This right here is the most ridiculous stuff I heard come out of the committee. They really don't want to get into playing the "factoring injuries" game. No way they could be consistent with that.

People are calling Ohio State's close win(it went to overtime) at Penn State a positive and was pivotal to their season.
By comparison, Alabama had a close game at Arkansas yet we are getting hammered by that win.
Not that big of a deal as we still control our destiny, but I am getting annoyed by everyone harping on our Arky game.

Bama is #5 and has a three loss LSU on their record as their best win. At the end of the day, the SEC is getting it's due.

How did UCLA go up 8 spots by beating Washington? How did Michigan State drop only 4 spots losing at home to a team they were favored against by double digits?

Welcome to the CFB Playoff committee. It's a joke.

Where do you think Bama ranks once Arky beats LSU, K State beats WVU, and Mizz beat A&M after a Miss St loss.
shite would get real.

If Bama loses to MSU, I couldn't care less where they are ranked.

Did I miss the part where Ole Miss looks really good? You're consistently bland, Auburn and UGA are hot and cold, all are pretty meh.

2 and 3 loss teams vs a 1 loss team
Don't lose and you don't have to worry where the committee ranks you
