So we're gonna use the Coat tail method?... OOF.... 

Pretty dumb question.

Alabama is a "team", like anyone else. They happened to play the #1 team in the nation. Their only loss.

It's not rocket science here.

Had Alabama played NC State or Maryland they are still undefeated.

I'm not making excuses. I literally said "No excuse. Not a great win".

Oregon's average score is 48-19 and they are 8-1 this year, with a chance at winning 10 straight conference games (which I don't believe has ever been done before) . There body of work is solid.  

You think they beat Utah if they play?   I feel like everyone talks about Oregon when thinking Pac12 while forgetting about Utah.

I go back & forth on this matchup but I think I'd take Utah.

Utah's front 7 is pretty damn stout, so I could see Oregon having trouble running the ball like they did against Auburn. But then again Utah's secondary has been exposed a little by better athletes at WR. 

Overall I take Whittingham over Cristoball in a close game.

PAC12... there's your body of work.

Pretty sure that's why the committee moved the way they did.

Still, games left.

The only claim against Clemson is their conference.

Which is a valid point with anyone NOT named Clemson from the ACC, los...

 

The system is broken or about as good as it's going to get with 4 teams.

If Georgia beats LSU you then have 3 1-loss SEC teams......should only 1 of them qualify for the playoffs?

Or, do we keep taking champs from shitty leagues?

I think I lean slightly towards Utah as well.   No, I don't think Utah has the same type of run D that Auburn has, but it's pretty good.   I just think that Tyler Huntley is a gamer.    I feel he's underrated because he doesn't put up crazy numbers, but he knows he has a stud RB that can do work (Zack Moss).   Those two guys can make things happen.

Every 1-loss team in America then becomes a playoff contender and their fan base's go crazy with playoff fever........look at me, look at me and my mulligan.....it's better, it's better..

BUT, the simple truth is their mulligans aren't better.

In what logic is UGA beating LSU gonna cause 3 teams to get in

 

If Ohio State and Clemson both win out both are getting in, if you think otherwise you are as stupid as Los

Team Anonymous has:

   1) Zero wins of any note.

   2) A loss. At home. 

   3) Not even a divisional title, let alone a conference title.

 

What is the argument for Team Anonymous to play for a national championship?

.

There is none

 

If they get in it shows the NCAA (I mean playoff committee) don't really care about deserving resumes, only getting biggest names possible into the playoffs

Good idea

 

It should go to undefeated teams and if there isn't enough to fill out the 4 then we can consider 1 loss conference champs

 

Problem solved

Totally agree. Huntley and Moss are gamers. They rarely turn the ball over as an offense. 

I think people underestimate how good of a coach Whittingham is as well. He gets 2 & 3 stars to play at 4star level.

There's no should.

All 3 should be evaluated without regard for conference.

And then 1 gets in or 2 get in or 3 get in.

I think that if all things go as expected from here on out (which of course they won't lol),  the SEC's only chance to get two in would be the scenario of UGA beating undefeated LSU (close game)in the SEC game.     

LSU and UGA would have solid resumes that I'm not sure 1 loss teams like Oregon, OU,  Minnesota, Baylor etc would be able to match.    Now if Baylor goes undefeated they would get in for sure leaving LSU out.     Damn that would be one hell of a shit storm though.

None.    Now if other teams start dropping and they handle Auburn and LSU handles UGA easily then I could see it happening.    Do I want 2 SEC teams in?  Hell no, but it could definitely happen.
