The 2 biggest games of the season are without question LSU @ Bama (11/9) and Penn St @ Ohio St (11/23).

At this point in the season there are 6 elite teams that are undefeated and well ahead of the rest. Assuming no crazy upsets happen before the end of the season, Clemson and OU will make the playoff and the other 2 spots will be given to the winners of each game mentioned above.

That being said, odds are half of these teams will be upset and chaos will ensue. I can't wait to see how this season unfolds!

I don’t think Bama’s defense will allow them to make it.

This is especially so if the offense is hobbled.

This year’s defense is just so bad.

Any of these teams could stumble any week. We have all seen it before. Hell LSU better have their heads right for this weekend or they could stumble against Auburn. I personally feel there will be at least 1 upset between the 6 teams left. Could be OU or Clemson, who knows.

I mean the only tested teams are OU and LSU. The others have had their easier games in the front half of the schedule. Calling them elite is a little early right now. Georgia, Florida, ND, etc can still be in the thick of things once the six face the prime of their schedules.

It's like people don't watch football I swear. Thinking this soon in the season the playoffs are settled really doesn't prove true, ever.

I feel that. We finally got what we’ve been needing for a decade, and now our strength has become our weakness. That doesn’t mean they’re bad, but I wasn’t sure I would live to see our offense be so far ahead of our defense

I said a few weeks back, it's anyone's championship to win in 2019. There are several teams that can win it all, and no truly dominant teams. It's going to be as interesting of a home stretch as we've seen in a while.

Wisky vs Ohio State this weekend is also big.

These two could rematch in the B1G championship game.

I think that’s really the only upsets available. #2 beating #1 wouldn’t really be an upset if you take history out of it. I wouldn’t even see Auburn beating LSU as an upset

I think PSU and OSU both drop a game over the next two weeks. I also think Clemson will drop one.

It would be fairly miraculous with our offense to win out, but you are out of your mind if you think a 12-1 SEC champion UGA would be left out.


Assuming OU/CU/OSU win their leagues with 0 or 1 loss, the SEC is only getting 1 team in and it's the SECCG.

A good start to the chaos would be Auburn beating LSU then LSU beating Bama!

Coming from someone who's team dropped 2 games in 2007, the arrogance of LSUfan is astounding this year.

So you’re going to need something more unlikely than how 2007 played out. Got it
