The first college playoffs

[Sirhornsalot]

IMO, these are the for sures

1. Alabama. Ranked #1 and won the SEC today. They're in.

2. Florida St. IMO, you can't keep an undefeated FSU out, no matter how ugly it is. All they have to do is beat Ga Tech in the second half.

3. Oregon. Impressive in their Pac 12 Championship win. See no way they're not in.

4. TCU, Ohio State, Baylor - Baylor needs to have an impressive second half. A really impressive second half. Ohio State is beating the snot out of Wisky and could leap frog both with an impressive win over a more impressive opponent than TCU played. This spot is up for grabs until the committee makes their selection.

Unfortunately, I'm thinking Ohio State sneaks in and the Big 12 goes from thinking it could get two teams in to not getting anyone in at all.

You might be right.  Unless FL State loses I can see the damn Buckeyes getting in over both Big 12 teams. Man will that piss me off, I hate those guys

 

[streettopeschel]

BU has no chance at this point. Incredible that tcu could go from 3 to 5 after a 52-point win but it may happen.

Its getting to the point I would be surprised to see the Big12 get in at all. That's going to really turn up the pressure to either get the rules changed so the can have a conference championship with 10 or add two more to get one. I was kinda scared of this happening, the lack of a conference game means we don't get to make the same impression on the committee the last weekend of the season when its most important.

I agree, I can see Ohio State jumping TCU. 

 

[texasdalton]

Does anyone know where the buckeyes strength of schedule ranks? The only reason i could think of them not jumping the frogs is due to that.

I would agree except that Baylor-KSU was a better game today than Bama-Mizzou was.

IMO, the SEC has a problem with how they've divided the conference. That East Division is light years behind the West.

I should not be able to tell you which side of the conference will win next year. Yet I can.

 

[Matt Cotcher]

The Big 12 (office) needs to be proactive here. In fact, they should've started 2 weeks ago.

Well, at least we won't have to see any in your face Baylor or TCU billboards along I-35 this offseason.

they'll both be 11-1. We're 6-6. Billboards ain't my concern.

 

[Sirhornsalot]

When it only happens once in a generation or two, you do billboards.

let em. To the victor belong the spoils.

Now what might those two fine gents be having a heated discussion over?

Speaking of Ohio State... how impressive is it that the 3rd string QB whipped a ranked Wisconsin team to win the Big 10 Championship game? They have some good players at the position in Columbus. I'm impressed.

Ain't a large concern of mine either, just enjoy a well placed joke.

The real loser is the Southwest Conference.
