SECCG isn't more than a 14 point UGA win.
Bama wins, they are in obviously and maybe the number 1 seed.
The Oregon loss helped them tremendously.
Committee would take undefeated Cincy over them.
Would they take a one loss Notre Dame or a one loss Big 12 champ?
I'm not sure about that. The analytics will say Bama is a much better team than either.
Most likely teams and seeding in my opinion if Bama loses:
1) UGA
2)OSU
3) Bama
4) Cincy
Could see OSU being no. 1 if they blowout Michigan and Wisconsin.
Bama wins:
1) Bama
2)UGA
3) OSU
4) Cincy
Could see OSU being two here as well.

Even the Gumps aren’t getting into the CFP with two losses and 1-possession wins over LSU and Arkansas at home.

I bet they let Cincy and a 1-loss Big 12 Champ in over 2-loss Bama. Notre Dame is really interesting. Does anyone really and truly believe that Notre Dame is better than Alabama?

Bama is going to beat Georgia

Bama could use an Ole Miss win in the Egg Bowl to help its strength of schedule. Right now its best victory is a good home one over Ole Miss. Won't have much of a case if its signature win is a road win against 8-4 Mississippi State (who lost to LSU and Memphis).

I think the bigger question is whether a 1 loss UGA team fresh off a loss gets in over a 1 loss ND team on a 7 game win streak.

Georgia is a lock.

You have far more faith in The Playoff Committee than I do.
Especially considering century-long media darling Notre Dame is in the mix.

No worries, I'm hearing Georgia will be favored by 50+ over Bama, and rightfully so !

If OSU blows out Michigan and Wisconsin I'd put them at 1 depending on how close the SEC CG is. If UGA wins by 7 or less, Bama would be their only ranked win probably. OSU would have 3 lopsided ones in this scenario.
Bama's only hope of getting into the playoff if they don't with the SEC is to keep it within 7, and hope for chaos in the Big 10 and Big 12. Doubt Cinci loses so they'd likely be in

A 2 loss Bama isn't getting in unless all heck breaks loose.

Watch all the calls that go their way
SEC wants two teams in this thing to push the expanded playoff

If UGA wins:
UGA
tOSU
1 loss B12 Champ (if OU/OSU split or if OU loses the first and Baylor gets in and wins the CCG, the B12 is done)
Cinci if they win out
Alabama win:
tOSU
Bama
Georgia
1 loss Big 12 team (see above) OR Cinci if they beat Houston
ND only gets in if Bama loses and B12 champ has 2 losses
Pac 12 is done
ACC is done
UGA
tOSU
1 loss B12 Champ (if OU/OSU split or if OU loses the first and Baylor gets in and wins the CCG, the B12 is done)

ND has a better resume than anyone in the Big 12.
Everyone east of Stillwater knows the Big 12 is a steaming pile a shite.

I know you are supposed to look at each season independently, but at some point these laughably predictable eggs OU and Notre Dame keep laying in the playoffs have to be factored in.
This is not one of Saban's best teams, but this is also a really down year for college football. Bama wouldn't deserve a bid if they lost a close one to UGA, but neither would anyone else besides UGA.
Imagine how pathetic the playoffs would be this year with a mid major who beat one decent team as well as the team they beat both being in the playoffs.

If Alabama wins in Atlanta and both bama and Georgia get in the playoffs, you think they would rematch them in the semifinals?
Posted on 11/22/21 at 4:13 pm to koreandawg
Notre Dame and Cincinnati would both have to lose for Bama to have any chance to get in with 2 losses.

If Alabama wins it will be:
1) Alabama
2) Georgia
3) OSU
4) Big 12 champ
5) Cincy
6) ND
If Georgia wins it will be:
1) Georgia
2) OSU
3) Big 12 Champ (1 loss)
4) Cincy
5) Alabama
6) ND
*If the the winner of the OU/OSU game loses in the Big 12 championship game, Alabama goes ahead of 2 lose Big 12 champ even with 2 loses.
*If Cincy loses Alabama goes to CFP even with 2 loses.
^These are facts
1) Alabama

Just playing out..
UGA wins
OSU/UM 1 loss champ
OU/OkS 1 loss champ
1. You can’t leave Bama at 2/3 having just lost the SECCG, with not 1 but 2 12-1 P5 champs.
2. So at Min they have to be 4.. you really want to see a game that was just played.. exact same scenario as 2018.. and they put UGA #5, which is what will happen.
So then it’s either 13-0 UCinn or 11-1 ND.
plus the committee has gone out if it’s way too leave out a 2 loss P5 champ ( PSU), never gonna happen for a 2 loss non champ.. never ever gonna happen!
Also before anyone says 4 best, you have 2 losses you ain’t one of the 4 best.. period !
