PoliticsWho or what picks these people?
We want Oregon to win because Washington will for sure get in if they're undefeated. Oregon's resume will not stack up against ours if we beat UGA.So are we Duck fans or Huskie fans this weekend? I'm concerned that the committee might rank them both above us if Oregon wins the rematch.
They will still get in, but I like that it makes the committee more uncomfortable. They will say that their only loss was to a team that they beat in their conference championship gameWe want Oregon to win because Washington will for sure get in if they're undefeated.

Who knows what ridiculous word salad they'll come up with. FSU should do the rest of the country a favor and just lose a freaking game already.They will still get in, but I like that it makes the committee more uncomfortable.

I'm just not impressed by either team, but especially Washington. They are absolute frauds. Maybe I should be rooting for them then, since we would obliterate them. I don't think it will matter because I simply do not trust this committee to do the right thing.Oregon - Washington is a play in game regardless of anything else.

Of course Bama's counterargument could be that the only team we lost to was a playoff team.They will still get in, but I like that it makes the committee more uncomfortable. They will say that their only loss was to a team that they beat in their conference championship game
Someone needs to explain to me how Texas has the second most difficult schedule.
Every system shows their SoS as better than Alabama's. It really isn't up for debateThey don't have a Chattanooga on their schedule for one. They've got that one big win on the road. Worst team they played was Baylor (3-9), Houston (4-8) who they almost to, TCU (5-7) who they almost to.
We've got MTSU, USF, and Chattanooga on our schedule or we'd be higher.
BUT....BUT.....BUT.....this committee doesn't care about any of that.
They played us.Someone needs to explain to me how Texas has the second most difficult schedule.
Actually, you get a bigger boost from playing them.They played us.
