I like the way you are thinking oregonbltzkrieg. You might join our side of the force one day.Notre Dame doesn't belong in the top 4 now or at the end of the season if there are still lots of 1 loss teams. They don't have a single good win. They play garbage teams for the most part and barely beat a poor Stanford team. They lost to FSU. That doesn't tell us much, because FSU plays nobodies all season long. They are not in a conference so they won't have to win a conference championship. They should be on the outside looking in, if things are fair. Also, after their pathetic performance in the NCG a few years ago, no one wants to see them anywhere near the playoffs.
That's about what I'm expecting. Maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised though. That's what I'm hoping for. RTR!!!Here's my prediction regarding the Playoff Committee's 1st Vote on the Rankings:
1 Florida State = 7 - 0
2 Mississippi State = 7 - 0
3 Notre Dame = 6 - 1
4 Oregon = 7 - 1
5 Auburn = 6 - 1
6 Ole Miss = 7 - 1
7 Alabama = 7 – 1
8 Michigan State = 7 – 1
9 Kansas State 6 – 1
10 TCU = 6 - 1
They may put in another PAC 12 team in the top 10.
I'm looking forward, I think, to the Playoff Committees 1st ranking so that we can critique it.
I am so committed to this playoff thing working, I might be willing to consider this position.Also, almost all the committee members have full time jobs. They can't be watching all games every week. With all the money generated, why can't we pay these people say 250k to watch football full time for3 months. Seems to me this would be a no brainer to ensure accuracy.
I respect Luiginbill because actually watches and studies teams before shooting his mouth off.Just saw Tom luiginbill on Championship Drive, BTW he had Bama#1 and SEC 3 out of 4 and no FSU , he made the statement the committee will be flawed and they should go back to the BCS formula and take the top 4.

The problem is in the letters BCS. People outside of the SEC fear it so they went to a selection committee. If you look at one of the most powerful critics of it DELANEY, you will know why everyone here is more afraid of what this first committee states than the 2011 BCS selections after Okie lite lost to Iowa St. If you dont think there is a chance that only the champion of Atlanta is representing the SEC then consider that not only does Delaney have a strong voice in this, but also the PAC 12, Big 12, and Notre Dame does as well. and to think that only 4 spots are awarded makes me think the wealth will be dispersed. I totally agree that the BCS is the best formula, but until the Oregon fad fades away or FSU championship has an * by it we will only get one team in most likely. Thats why I kinda saw auburn losing to FSU as a bad thing for the future because it gives the perception that anyone can challenge the might of the SEC west. I was also kinda hoping that if Ole Miss was to lose before Miss St it would be to Auburn because the perception of LSU this year is that they are a bottom feeder, but Auburn may be a world beater that had a bad day. Unless the rankings have two SEC teams in the top 4 tommorow that isnt named Georgia, I fear Atlanta is a must for anyone wanting to get to the big dance.Just saw Tom luiginbill on Championship Drive, BTW he had Bama#1 and SEC 3 out of 4 and no FSU , he made the statement the committee will be flawed and they should go back to the BCS formula and take the top 4.

I have said this previously. Luiginbill , Mike Belotti , Matt Millen and Butch Davis are the only credible ESPN CFB analysts . They are the only ones that break down film and know what they are looking for. If you ever have a chance to listen to Chris Carter, do it. I listen to him on Mike and Mike several times a weeek, and while they usually talk NFL, he has a great CFB IQ and is worth the occasional college conversation.I respect Luiginbill because actually watches and studies teams before shooting his mouth off.
