I am hoping if OSU doesn't get in they play ND in a Bowl.

Bama needs to beat Auburn and then Georgia in the SEC Championship.
1. Bama in - everybody else out

Miami needs to beat Clemson in the Championship
2. Miami in - Clemson out

Oklahoma needs to win Big 12 Championship over whoever they play
3. Oklahoma in - everybody else out

That leaves the 4th spot wide open
* Wisconsin controls their own destiny. They beat Michigan and top 10 Ohio State and they are in as undefeated Big Ten Champs.
* Ohio State could slip in by winning out which means wins over Michigan and a possibly undefeated top 4 Wisconsin team.
* If Notre Dame wins out they have a slim chance with two losses but I think the Big Ten scenario is better. (There would need to be Big Ten chaos for ND to slip ahead of them).
* PAC 12 Champ with a slim chance but I don't see it at this point.

There's a lot that can happen in the SEC but I still think only one SEC team gets in.

This is definitely the correct scenario that OSU needs to happen. We dont want to compete with a 2 loss Auburn that beats Bama and then Georgia in the SEC Championship. Then the committee could take both Auburn and a one loss Bama and 2 spots are gone. Trust me, they wont leave a 1 loss Bama team sitting at home.

ND is out. Period.

USC losing in the Pac12 Championship would help. A 2 loss Stanford or Washington State isnt going over a 2 loss OSU B1G Champ.

They will compare the ND vs MSU score with the OSU vs MSU score and see that OSU completely dominated the game entirely if ND gets back in the picture.

If OSU has any pulse, they need to play angry and stomp everyone the rest of the way

Also SEC, ACC and B1G conference championship games have to be blowouts and Big 12 needs to be something like a 52-50 sloppy defensive game

That's all the Big 12 has been, 50's sloppy defensive games.

I'm not so sure a 1-loss Bama would be able to make it if they lost to Auburn. If it's a close loss, then I can an argument, but if Auburn blows out Bama like how Auburn did to Georgia, I'd consider leaving them at #5 if a 2 loss OSU dominated the remainder of their schedule. Another thing is to compare Bama's resume this year to OSU's last year as OSU had 3 wins in the top 8 and lost a close game @ Penn State. A 1-loss Bama would have 2 wins against LSU and @ Miss State, who would probably rank this week between 16 and 25, and then it'd depend on how the Auburn game goes. Third would be the fact that Bama is beat up with injuries. If OSU dominated these last 3 games who would a 2-loss champion with 2 top 10 wins vs. a beaten up, 1-loss Bama with no top 15 wins and would be a non-champ.

At the same time, I'm sure OSU would love another shot at Bama if they won out and went #1 with OSU squeezing in at #4 in the Sugar Bowl, and then a potential rematch against Oklahoma if they won out too and came in at #2 against Miami who'd be #3.

He's talking about the 16 points we scored against Oklahoma. The defenses are terrible in the B12.

Stranger things have happened.
Tell us, does a two loss Notre Dame, a two loss Big 12 non champion, a two loss SEC non champion, a two loss ACC non champion beat out a two loss Big Ten CHAMPION?
The scenario isn’t far fetched at all. Will it play out that way - things haven’t played out the way we thought they would up to this point so who knows.

The Bucks were ninth in tonight's CFP rankings. Moved up four spots but behind Auburn Notre Dame and Georgia with Wisky only 5th. Even with the running the table by the Bucks or Badgers, you can make an argument the Big Ten and Pac12 get left out. This may be the year a conference gets two teams in. Chaos will happen, but the Bucks may be to far down to make up the gap. If Clemson and Miami have a close game in the ACC CG, both may get in.

Yes, it just depends how it all plays out. But there is a very good possibility the Buckeyes make it.
Pretty much everyone is saying Notre Dame is out even though they are 8 right now, one ahead of OSU.
If, and it's a big if, Alabama runs the table that means Auburn will have 3 losses and Georgia 2 and Georgia wont be a conference champion. That would put OSU ahead of Georgia.
Should Miami and Clemson win out and Miami beat Clemson in the ACC Championship game Clemson would have two losses and not a conference champion. One would think OSU would surge ahead of them should the Buckeyes be a two loss Big Ten Champion. Wisconsin has to be undefeated when the Buckeyes beat them - should the Buckeyes win out to that point.
So much, what ifs at this point, but isn't that the way it is every year?

Iowa 55
OSU 24
Argument over!!!
A top 4 team doesnt lose a game like that to lowly Iowa.
