Should be like 20%.

Yall always say Texas try’s to throw around their brand and weight, if I’m CDC I’m Calling ESPN and asking them how much they want OOC games in September to matter from now on, period. If not, I’m canceling future OOC. With the SEC going to 9 conference games it won’t matter if you play Indiana or Techs OOC and Texas will make its money regardless.

How about don’t lose to Florida?

The number 1 rule is win the games you’re supposed to win. Ask Miami about that

You are thinking like an SEC fan. No, they won’t.


Just wait until we go to a 9 game conference schedule with an extra weekend of elimination games.

The committee is saying in a loud way that they don't want a 3 loss national champion.

Even if the bracket goes to 16 slots, the committee won't want any 3 loss teams involved.

The entire situation smells of possible kickbacks or bribery.

The SEC going to nine games without Auto qualifying spots is really stupid and greed over common sense. You’re choosing to add 8 conference losses when we already see the chaos this year

How about schedule real teams in the OOC instead of taking a cake walk?

The same Florida team you barely beat by 4?

Also UGA you are just as guilty, austin peay, Mercer, marshal as OOC? You are lucky GT is decent but once King is gone and they are back to average your OC will be terrible unless you backfill.

I’m well aware you had OU scheduled, you could have replaced them and chose not to.

The SEC shouldn’t go to nine games. Snakey should be fired for negligence

Putting me in the camp of those thinking that they have virtually no shot. First, they’d have to win, obviously. But they’d also have to win big. Then, they’d need Auburn or LSU and Tennessee to win. There is no way the SEC gets 6 teams in, and they simply can’t jump OU and Bama and a two loss Vandy team and UGA and A&M without all those things happening.

Probably Vandy loses, but it’s very doubtful that LSU or Auburn win.

frick the playoffs this year
We do that shite all the time
We will be back next year
We lost to Florida, much like bama lost to vandy and got held out
That’s reality. But we beat ou, and we will for sure stomp the shite out of Aggie
That’s what matters now
Just because Aggie had the easiest schedule in the sec doesn’t make them good, they are not
Give us 6 days and we will show you
Horns by 14+ in this game

I cannot believe I am going to stick up for Texas. In a fair world, a 9-3 Texas should probably get in on strength of schedule. It isn’t a fair world.

The only thing that matters is the number of losses, not your wins. Alabama is the perfect example of this … And no matter what the SEC is probably not getting more than four of five teams. That means that UGA, A&M, OM, are locks. Everyone else with two losses is ahead of Texas.

Allstate CFP Predictor has it at 9%. I can't imagine the chaos needed to reach that 9%, but clearly Texas would need to catapult into the top 10 prior to all conferences championship games, 9% indeed.

It will involve some committee members jumping up and down on the mattress. I don't think you will be allowed to watch.

Yeah right! You ags are sweating bullets. You know you're going to lose.

You've lost with much better teams to Texas in the past.

History is not on the cults side.

Only 14 wins in Austin in your entire history.

Poor aggy

Texas lost to tOSU, UGA, and Florida. (This is a terrible loss)

Tennessee should've beaten UGA earlier in the year. Their three losses are to UGA, BAMA, and OU.

People focus on Texas because it's Texas but between letting little schools in and others in on weak schedules, several teams are going to get hosed every year if we actually look at who they played and who they lost to. IDK, why Texas is everyone's focus for this.

Yet the media was focused on how a three loss Texas was still worthy before the UGA game. Then UGA embarrassed them and that narrative suddenly stopped.

You want to know what will happen with the seeding follow the media.

Some Ags obsess over the sips, but I don't.

Friday will be the 2nd game of yours I've watched since y'all joined the SEC. I'm sure you can guess the first one.

Texas needs major help...

1st beat A&M (which probably won't happen)

Miss St over Ole Miss
LSU over Oklahoma
Auburn over Alabama
Washington over Oregon
Pitt over Miami
West Virginia over Texas Tech

some combination of upsets....

It's most likely not going to happen
