What if Alabama beats Georgia

Roll tide

 

I’d bet Vegas would have Bama favored against most of them.

 

Strongly Cheering for IOWA !

 

Sorry, I’m for Meatchicken. If Meatchicken or Washington lose, it more easily clears the way for Georgia even if they lose on Saturday. I want them frozen out.

 

“I wasn’t born in Heaven, I was born in IOWA”

 

I've heard its a great place to be FROM

 

Sorry, you've got it backwards. In your scenario Bama must end up above tOSU being a conference champ, and UGA would have a better record than tOSU so almost certainly stays ahead of them. There's a path for tOSU to make the playoff, but it requires UGA to beat Bama. Remember tOSU is currently #6 in the playoff rankings, so they need to rise 2 spots without getting passed by anyone below them:

Michigan wins (no credible scenario involves them losing)
UGA over Bama (UGA in, Bama stays behind tOSU)
FSU loses to LVille (FSU falls below tOSU)
Texas loses to Okie St (Texas stays behind tOSU)
Pac-12 CG loser falls below tOSU

Playoff teams: UGA, Michigan, Pac-12 champ, and tOSU (ACC and Big XII champ both have 2 losses)

 

This is the same discussion in 2006. Would they leave a one loss UF out of the championship game even though they were the SEC Champions. strength of Schedule was a factor back then.

 

They still know who their daddy is

 

Probably not wrong

 

If Bama wins, which I very much hope they do, then Texas should be in. They beat Bama in Tuscaloosa.

Michigan
FSU
Oregon/Washington
Texas

That would be the most fair. Not saying Bama and Georgia aren’t better, but how do you leave out conference champs/head to head winners.

 

That's why I'm picking Louisville and Bama to win their games...

 

From your lips to Boo’s ear.

 

These winning combos might give us 2 SEC teams & no fsu:

• Texas, Bama, Louisville, Iowa
• OK State, Bama, Louisville

 

To sweet Baby Jesus, I hope so. Screw the SEC. I hope Bama and GA suffer the stink of a million farts in close quarters.

 

Bamas loss wouldn’t be as bad and their wins are better.

 

Four best teams is how it’s supposed to go, those aren’t the four best teams

 

No problem with me. It’s what I call an open post Season.

 

Yeah, that’s what happens when you have no one left to cheer for. It becomes all about what gives you the greatest degree of schadenfreude.

 

But…Texas beat Bama. At Bama. At some point results have to matter.
