Top 6 as expected.. Lots of love for Washington State and Kentucky.... But UCF isn't being convincing enough apparently.

[OZZIEOHIO]

Buckeyes still have a shot to make it but we need to win out and also need Bama to win out 4 teams a head of us play each other this weekend LSU vs Bama and Kentucky vs Georgia i do not see a two loss team getting in over a 1 loss team but I am not sure we can win out with the way we have played lately

[OZZIEOHIO]

the only was UCF gets in is if there is a bunch of two loss teams they wont pass up a 1 loss power 5 team

I totally agree 100%

Until proven otherwise, I would swap Ohio State and UCF.
At least Wazzou and Kentucky have better wins than the Buckeyes and neither of those squads have dropped a 29 point t*rd in their losses.

Even if the Bucks win out, their playoff hopes were doomed at Purdue unless max chaos happens in front of them. The Big10, Big12, Pac12, and the Irish will be fighting for two playoff spots.

IF and I'm saying IF... Ohio State puts a beat down on Michigan.. They might get in over ND... Notre Dames resume is beating Michigan and that's it. Cause Stanford, USC and VT all lost last week...

[smurray]

Alabama wins out and that takes care of the SEC not getting a second team in (they will all have at least losses)
Clemson wins out and they are in
Notre Dame wins out and they are in (should be ahead of LSU)

That leaves one spot:
Michigan wins out they are in.
If Ohio State wins out and Oklahoma wins out I think the committee takes Oklahoma
If Ohio State wins out and Oklahoma loses another game OSU could be considered.
Washington State would be considered should the win out and Ohio State win out and Oklahoma lose one.

An Alabama loss, Clemson loss, Notre Dame loss changes everything.

[YOU'RE TIGER BAIT]

we need to win out and get a lot of help smurray. I miss ya ole buddy.

[YOU'RE TIGER BAIT]

4 big ten teams at this point is impressive.

[YOU'RE TIGER BAIT]

wow the sec has 7.

[YOU'RE TIGER BAIT]

basically 1/3 of the top 25 is sec.

[The General]

Could and should be upwards to 11 with SCarolina,Vandy,Mizzu,and OLE Miss who,without question,could compete with and beat many of those teams on that list. Especially with the QBs they have like Jordan Ta'amu,Jake Bentley,Kyle Shurmer,and Drew Lock....

[The General]

To give football fans ANOTHER idea how dominant Clemson and THE TIDE have been the last several years....And there are several(Compared to everyone else)....The other night was the 26th time in the Playoff era that a Committee has convened and doled out rankings. Alabama has NOW been ranked 22 times in the TOP 4(Out of 26). Clemson has been ranked in the TOP 4 Nineteen times!!......NOBODY else is over 8.....

Most all moan and groan about perceived SEC bias and favortism, but honestly Ohio State, in its current condition, would struggle against all SEC teams. That is not praising the SEC but being realistic about the Big Ten.

[baseball16]

There should not be any polls, its just a media hyped predictor, also the committee should meet only 1-2 times in Dec.
it all plays out and will continue this yr with 1 or 2 teams whining they did not get in!
