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. I'm curious why winning against Auburn is such a big deal. Assuming Team Anonymous beats them, there's a good chance they'll finish with four losses and have three close calls on their resume. Zero wins by more than a score over anyone with a pulse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well when you consider Auburn being the only loss Oregon has I think it ties into the argument. Don't you? Bama is lucky that Auburn has that win honestly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't you? It's certainly not irrelevant but generally speaking early games are not considered as much as later ones. And it is the total body of work that gets considered. The fact is that over the season Auburn has been bested twice and barely won three more times. Auburn barely squeaked by Ole Miss in their last game. It was 20-14 with nearly 6 minutes left in the game. And there are two more realistic losses on the horizon. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No other league has a legit shot for right now. The Big 10 had a decent chance if PSU and tOSU squared off as undefeated teams and played each other closely. There best chance would have been PSU going undefeated and tOSU having only 1 loss. What will be interesting is if Minnesota wins the Big 10 and goes undefeated. UGA beats LSU, Bama beats Auburn, and Oregon beats Utah. That will really shake things up. At this point Clemson is the only sure bet to make the playoffs due to a lack of opposition remaining. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we do not get some guys healthy, then we are in BIG trouble. We lost 3 OL (with the center being the worse loss imo) and Cager last week. I really don't have much faith in our OC. I don't think Kirby was thorough enough in his search for Chaney's replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
954gator Posted November 14, 2019 Report Share Posted November 14, 2019 @concha Truth is teams had really shitty OOC schedules this year. Take the Big 10 for example: Minnesota: Beat both Georgia Southern and Fresno St by 3 pts. Wisconsin: Easy wins vs USF and Central Michigan Penn State Struggles in win vs Pitt (17-10) Michigan State Lost to Arizona St (10-7) Ohio State Probably best OOC win by BIG in Cincinnati (42-0), their other OOC win FAU scored more on OSU than any Big10 team (45-21) Michigan: Escaped Army in 2OTs (24-21) Think about that...the BIG10s best OOC win is Cincy (please correct me if I'm wrong of course). Auburn beating Oregon is probably the best OOC win this year. **edit forgot Michigan's win vs Notre Dame. That might actually be the better OOS win. Debatable I guess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Listen I don't think UGA is that great, I really do think FL shit the bed, and Fromm had his best game of the season (again) against FL, but if they get wins vs LSU and Auburn they will have some good wins under their belt.

RedZone Posted November 14, 2019 Report Share Posted November 14, 2019 How about this? Clemson plays Wake Forest this week. Virginia Tech beat Wake Forest by 3 TDs last week. Virginia Tech can barely beat Furman this year.....and Va-Tech was crushed by 4-win Duke. If Wake Forest even stays close with Clemson.......Clemson would be OUT if I was on the committee. Clemson used up their one "get out of jail card" on North Carolina. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other might be Michigan mercilessly pummeling Notre Dame (compare to Georgia). Which is why conference titles and Power Five games and conferences matter too. I wonder if any of the B10 scheds can count the equivalent of New Mexico State, Southern Mississippi and Western Carolina. On the same schedule? As regards the FAU game, let's not get carried away. It was Justin Field's first start for tOSU and the score was 35-6 at the start the 4th quarter, which is where FAU got 125 of their total 228 yards for the game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
