Alabama
Georgia
Kentucky
Tennessee
Texas

It's possible for all five of these teams to win all their remaining regular season games. If the CFP only takes three SEC teams, which two get left out?

None get left out. Any 2 loss big ten or sec team will get in this year.

Bama and Georgia have looked the most impressive so far, so they are at the top of the list, leaving 1 slot up for grabs in your scenario. I think Texas gets it over the over two but I am biased.

CFP is not taking five SEC teams.

I guess we would have to question if he is laughing at the idea of getting in with those wins or the idea that LSU might actually get those wins.

The CFP committee was specifically created to screw the SEC and bolster the B1G. No way 5 get in.

If Tennessee goes 10-2, they have a 100% chance of going

I don't think we are going to win out, but if we do, we are in. That's just a fact

They will take four at most, likely 3. They will be told to leave Kentucky out if all 5 win out as they would bring the least ratings.

If you really want to dig deep OU still has a chance lol

@JohnHiggins55

Oklahoma’s path to Atlanta is pretty simple.

- Win out
- Georgia wins out
- LSU beats Texas
- Texas wins out post LSU
- 1 more loss for Bama, Kentucky, & Tennessee

That would put OU, Bama, Kentucky, Texas and Tennessee in a 5 way tie at 6-3 with the Sooners holding the tie breaker.

(It will never happen but I’m amazed someone researched all that info)

The only 10-2 SEC team that could be left out is UK. The reality is any 10-2 SEC team is making it this year

A slim one, but technically still a chance, yes. Winning out gives two quality wins, and gives a third loss to both Texas and Tennessee - both of which LSU would then have a win over.

It's still an unlikely series of events, but it might be enough to get LSU into the playoffs as the 11th or 12th seed.
