How does this align with QBR?

Stop posting.

And change your username it’s obviously fabricated and you’re making real alumni look bad.

Downvoted to get you to 28-3

All I need is to see that in 2024 Penn State stayed ahead of Ohio State when both teams had 2 losses. Penn State lost AT HOME to Ohio State and stayed ahead of them.

Good citation. I'm very curious to see how much precedent last year actually set also. What we're talking about here, and you reference, is obviously a highly visible scenario when it occurs, and could be almost annual.

With respect to another precedent, auto-bids for the G4 conferences, we've already done away with. I'm likewise betting some CCG losers with a 2nd, or even 3rd, loss, will not be making the field going forward. Perhaps will happen to GT, UVA, TTech, Cincy, or even Texas (if they win out and UGA loses another)

I'm not sure I agree with that statement.

Scenario 1: A championship game loser of a lesser conference, say previously-undefeated BYU in teh Big12 CCG, would not have any bye if they made the field as an at-large (which would be very likely). This happened with SMU last year

Scenario 2: The case at hand: in a unique circumstance a non-CCG team getting into the 4-seed, which in that case the team would get 2 weeks off.

p.s. By the way, your point about a 2-loss Bama team is well-taken; I suppose its a fair question depending on how they lost (Ty Simpson gets injured and they lose by 3 TDs, say) UGA may very well have an argument to leapfrog Bama, despite the prior H2H loss

Look there’s not much of a historical sample set, but what’s a notable wrinkle here is that both teams would be undefeated but for a common opponent, Bama, who also serves as a pretty good yard stick for relative talent, execution, coaching performance, etc.

As far as “easy” goes I mean to say it’s analysis on a single metric (H2H loss margin to a single team) that, as a function of the common opponent being Bama, controls for many other variables.

You could definitely complicate the analysis by invoking the extra game / SECCG aspect, looking at other H2H results, yada yada. But it doesn’t strike me as far-fetched to just look at the outcome of each v. Bama and infer A&M has a very small margin for error to maintain their 4-seed position.

UGA has a great HC now, but that job is NOT a better job than LSU's.

On literally every metric it’s a better job. Plus the ones that matter, like alumni funding support, facilities, stability in the administration, and in-state talent (yes it still matters)

Definitely not shook at all
