FIRST CFP RANKINGS

[Sirhornsalot]

Texas comes in at #7, likely due to the three top 10 wins, scheduling and beating Ohio State, and the new 9-game SEC schedule.

1. Miami

2. Georgia

3. Utah

4. Indiana

5. Alabama

6. Kentucky

7. Texas

8. UCLA

9. BYU

10. Ole Miss

11. Notre Dame

12. Ohio State

13. Tennessee

14. LSU

15. Texas Tech

16. Wake Forest

17. Houston

18. Missouri

19. Iowa

20. USC

21. South Carolina

22. Arizona

23. Oregon

24. Florida

25. Boise State

My thoughts . . . .

1. Indiana at #4 is commode-hugging stupid. They've beaten no one. They've almost lost the last two games against teams that aren't good.

2. UCLA at #8 is questionable. Here are the teams UCLA has beaten – Cal, San Diego St., Purdue, Maryland, Oregon, Wisconsin, Michigan St., and lowly Nevada. Who drew this schedule up? Santa Claus?

3. Notice that they have three SEC teams in the brackett? Notice each of the three are in the same branch of the bracket? This assures only one possible SEC team in the championship. Why?

4. Boise will get donkey stomped. They don't belong here.

my bet is on Ga to win it all

Because the Longhorns threw away two games with double-digit leads, their whole season comes down to the next 2 weeks (from a cfp perspective). Nothing else anywhere will matter, win the next two weeks and we will be in the top 5 or top 3.

My take:
Indiana & Alabama each lose one more game and Kentucky drops 2.
UCLA could easily lose 3 or even all 4 of their remaining games.
I don’t see BYU beating Utah so I only see one big 12 team in the CFP. I can’t see how anyone could justify taking a big 12 team with 2 losses over an SEC team that played 9 conference games with 2 losses.
Bottom line is if we win out, we should be no lower than a 5 seed!
A 5 seed puts us on the other side of the bracket away from Georgia.

This^^^^^
We were not beaten by anyone.....we pissed away two games. I am off the Sark wagon. I used to think he was an elite recruiter....but he cannot get elite olinemen to save his life.

You can cross off at least 4 of these teams. They will be playing each other.
Missouri has Texas, Kentucky and Georgia - see ya
LSU has 'Bama, Texas and Tenn - see ya
'Bama has LSU and then Auburn at the end of the season. I pick them over LSU so I think they make it.
Ole Miss has Georgia - good luck with that. see ya
Tenn has Kentucky, aggies and LSU - see ya
We know Texas' schedule -

That's one of the big problems with some of these schedules. If you don't play any of the top teams in your conference then you can skate by with maybe one or two tough games. Might as well played in the Big 12 this year.

You might could add currentl 1-loss Kentucky into that mix. They have @Tenn, host Florida, @Missouri, and host Louisville in a rivalry game.
