Yeah no they aren’t just like FSU should have been a lock yet magically the rankings were changed to reflect the wishes of the committee

ABC is killing in the ratings with the new SEC package and ESPN has the CFP playoff package so the SEC will have at least 3 teams and possibly 4. Remember, this is a made-for-TV product.

I still say 3 tops unless there are some big upsets to ND or in the ACC.

LSU could potentially still win the conference and get in.

I would feel better if BYU took a regular season loss, but a 2 loss ACC non champion is not getting in. SMU has 0 quality wins and Miami has 0 quality wins + should have lost 2-3 other games (VT/Cal for sure).

Ole Miss technically only has 1 loss in regulation. And that is because we missed a FG to go to OT.

There is always the chance the committee does something weird, but if we win out I’d say 90% chance we are in

Instead of stating the many reasons this will never happen, I’m just going to ask. Are you retarded?

Just thinking depending on how things shake out Ole Miss could actually be left out of the playoff due to their overall schedule if 3 teams don't get in from the SEC.


So what you are saying is they need to beat the absolute shite out of the two teams left on their schedule. See you in two weeks skippy!

Nah, frick everything about that. 12 is already 4 too many imo, but still more than covers every playoff worthy team based on the regular season.

Yes, I can see how the SEC beats the shite out of each other every season and that will mean some playoff worthy teams get left out, (some years it will be my Longhorns) but so be it. With 12 teams there is still drama in the regular season, expand past 12 and you may see some coaches actually rest dinged up players that would otherwise play...especially if a loss doesn't knock them out of the playoffs.

I know you disagree and others may as well, but if you truly think about it you know I'm right. And once again, I'm fully aware being in the SEC where literally any team can beat another team on a given Saturday makes for a more difficult playoff path, but that just means the teams we get in are truly worthy and could go all the way.

If TN beats GA I think Ole Miss is pretty likely to miss the playoff.

Close to zero chance of more than 3 imo.
