AP wasn't determining national championships in 2003.

OP's thought process: "Let's see what I can write to get the most responses tinged with anger."

Looks like you ruffled a lot of feathers here.

So, in your scenario, a two loss LSU should be allowed in and a one loss UGA shouldn’t? You flunked logic, right?

Neither are titles from teams who won neither their conference nor division.

Oof.

This is how I see it playing out:
- LSU wins out
- Ohio State wins out
- TCU wins out
- USC wins out

Playoff seedings:
1. Ohio State
2. TCU
3. LSU
4. USC

This is likely how it would play out unless the ACC winner has 1 loss.

If that's the case, no SEC team gets in.

I don't think they'd put 1-loss UGA or UT in ahead of LSU in that scenario... but they MIGHT put 1-loss Michigan in ahead of 2-loss LSU.

In that case their might not be any SEC team either.

UT isn't making it without help. They aren't getting in over any 1 loss P5 champ or even a 1 loss non-champ UGA.

Tcu is undefeated, OSU and UM are undefeated, the ACC has two one loss teams and the PAC has one.

If LSU wins out, UT is certainly out and LSU becomes the first 2 loss team in the CFPs, as it is about how teams finish.

If LSU loses and UGA wins out, UT needs 2+ P5 Champs to have 2 losses or more to even be considered.

USC ain’t getting in over us

LSU would have same number of wins, a harder schedule, and the conference championship ring...
