So if Clemson, OSU/TTUN, and UCLA/Oregon/USC finish undefeated, how does Bama get into the final four?

Assuming the winner of Ga/Tenn would be in.

Bama beats winner of Ga/Tenn in the SEC championship.

I assumed they wouldn't meet until the SEC Championship? Shit, you're right, they play in two weeks. I thought Tennessee was in the West.

If Notre Dame is going to pull shit like this, they should have at least let UNC beat them :)

Yeah, Bama wins out in the West, wins the championship, it could get ugly.

JFC Drake Maye, you're a god damned moron. 40s left in the game, 1st and goal, no time outs, you don't run and slide then spike the ball to lose a down.

TD on the next play, though, BARELY, helps. UGH

ESPN gave Duke a 99.8% of winning

Undefeateds

B12 - TCU
B10 - OSU/UofM - Same Division
ACC - Clemson/Syracuse - Same Division
SEC - UGA/Tenn/OleMiss - UGA/Tenn are same division; OleMiss is West.
P12 - UCLA

ESPN says a 1 loss version of many of those teams above has a chance. But OSU has the best chance. Then UGA, Clemson, Bama, UofM, and Tenn.

We could still have 5 undefeated teams though, one from every conference. And then it gets tricky.

22nd! And unlikely to fall this week... since we have a bye week :)

Fair, but do we then have to pretend that a massive university can't afford to put new goalposts in?

Sure, but then that's $100k they can't spend on hookers for recruits.

A 12 team playoff would be fun. I don't think any team here would be a guarantee to win it all or not lose the first game.

Means nothing. After week 1 (and I think 2) it could be said that OSU was the only team to face a top 5 team. Or faced a team currently in the top 10.

It's hard to live anywhere when they keep moving the goalposts.
