    Wouldn't that be a fun discussion if we were still in the BCS era?
    Would it be Oregon or Bama in the number 2 spot?

    By that logic Indiana a winless team in the BIG would win the SEC East. after beating SEC East leader Missouri.

    I have no idea how that looks on the web, it looks like trash on tapatalk. I'll look at it later.

    But basically the team on the left is what the BCS would presumably look like and the team on the right is the playoff
  • wildcats20
    Also it was as of last week's rankings. I can't find it with last night's.

    Akron 21
    @ Pitt 10

    Pitt 30
    @ Boston College 20

    Boston College 37
    USC 31

    USC 28
    @ Arizona 26

    Arizona 31
    @ Oregon 24

    Akron would dominate Oregon obviously.

    Also.....

    Marshall 48
    @ Akron 17 (Akron's largest deficit loss of the season)

    So.....,

    Herbie was talking this morning about the information that he was being fed by the competition committee and such about going forward....that it will be almost impossible for a Miss St to be in the final 4 if it doesnt get into the SEC championship game. They said to expect alot of movement before the very last standings as that is when they will take in account those issues, and also the TCU/Baylor issue. If the overall resume is close, and at the end of the season it should be with Baylor and TCU, then it will go head to head which gives it to baylor over tcu

    So they haven't taken everything into account to date?

    What if Auburn knocked off Bama in OT? Would Bama really drop to 8th?

    Why is Boise St above Colorado State? Yes, they defeated them at BSU 37-24 and Boise's extra loss was at Ole Miss but that 35-13 loss is looking worse and worse as Ole Miss is a loss vs Miss St from being ranked below both Boise and CSU.

    Boise lost handily 28-14 to Air Force and has zero wins vs any power 5 conference teams. CSU has defeated 2 power conference schools and both on the road (Boston College, Colorado)...also CSU has defeated some of the same MW conference teams just like Boise St has.

    I just don't believe BSU is being penalized at all for a 35-13 loss at Ole Miss, it just can't be thrown out (had it been a tight 35-31 loss....AND Ole Miss beats MSU), then I could dismiss it without hurting their resume (when comparing to CSU and Marshall)

    I was surprised by this as well. CSU has been ranked in other polls for the past 3-4 weeks and Boise just made their first appearance this week. I wonder if it is because Boise controls their own destiny in the MWC. This could be the committee showing that being in a conference title game is huge.

    Boise St loses and CSU wins, CSU will be in the MWC title game, and likely make an appearance in the Top 25. If CSU does make it to the CFP Top 25, whether or not they jump Marshall will be interesting to see.

    CSU would have a conference championship (stronger conf) and 2 wins vs two members of big 5 power conferences (both on the road)

    I would think the committee would have them at #25 to let everyone know they are right there.

    I would bet Marshall would travel better though.

    Doesn't matter...BSU will beat Utah St and SDSU in championship and get the Jan 1 bowl.

    The worst place team in the B1G beat the first place team in a division of the SEC. Apparently the SEC is worse.

    and you're a retard.

    That is not technically an Apples to apples comparison. If Indiana beat Alabama then it would work better. Missouri is not the best team in the SEC. Ohio State is the best team in the whole B1G.

    No way to get around it, the loss to VT was atrocious. Good news that it was early. I also think the fact we can win a conference championship game will put us ahead of MSU for sure. TCU/Baylor, I think we could possibly jump then as well but we need to be dominant.

    The larger point is that a bad team beating a good team does not prove anything more than a bad team beat a good team in one game. It has no larger meaning on its own.

    And that KnightRyder is a retard.

    Not sure if anyone brought this up or not, but I think JT being out will be enough to keep OSU out of the playoff assuming they are able to beat Wisconsin next week. (If they don't beat Wisconsin they will be out anyway)

    Oh, it is the NCAA Basketball committee argument all the way.
    No way OSU gets in unless we continue to get chaos like in 2007.
  • Azubuike24
    Exactly what was going to get OSU heavy consideration (Barrett was a completely different player than the one that lost to VT) is what will hurt them now (Barrett is out for the season).

    IMO, this puts Baylor/TCU clearly ahead of OSU. If Baylor wins out, they likely go due to getting the head to head win over TCU. If Baylor loses, TCU likely goes given they are the Big 12 champion.

    OSU needs help from Auburn/Missouri, Ole Miss, Florida/Georgia Tech and Oregon State/Arizona.

    Well, they are getting some help. Miss St is losing, and FSU is still on the ropes per usual.
  • Azubuike24
    What will be crazy is if, all of the 1-loss teams lose. Say...

    MSU loses today.
    OSU loses next week.
    Baylor loses to K-State.
    FSU loses today.
    Alabama loses another.

    Then what???
  • Tiernan
    Like I've said all along...OSU wants no part of being in these playoffs, especially now.
