Who is in?
Well, the team, that I grew up watching and lived 9 miles from, played themselves out of it by bad play calling despite leading in the 4th quarter twice and lost those two games by a total of 4 points...
Penn State
Yeah. I even wrote up an article last year why Penn State would have been better than Washington and Michigan in the playoff using the formula that the CFP selection committee supposedly uses to come up with their rankings. Frankly, I would like to see Wisconsin in there this year. They get ZERO respect due to the fact their half of the Big Ten is weak.
Roll Tide!
Well, Miami got beat up by Pitt, so anyone they beat looks worse for wear as Pitt dominated that game and Miami scored their last TD with only a couple of minutes left.
Bama has the weakest schedule of all those with 1 or more losses. They shouldn't be allowed in. Heck, even I admit Penn State shouldn't be in due to the two losses against Ohio State and Michigan State, due to the relatively weak OOC schedule. But, Bama scheduled a bunch of nobodies to play OOC.
Yeah, the Sooner defense is nothing but holes; but I listen to the analysts on the various College post game shows and they are raving about how good that defense is. The problem I see is similar to Penn State, the offense is so good that the defense sometimes has no time to rest and recover, which is what happened against Ohio State and Michigan State for Penn State. If you said to me that your team will always score 21 or more points, but lose twice at the beginning of the season; I would have been shocked.
Apparently everyone lost interest after the final rankings? I figured there would be some discussion on Bama making it.
I thought they missed it last year with Ohio State, and I think the same thing about Bama this year. The season long discussion was that the SEC was not that tough. Oddly, the year everyone thinks that is the year the SEC has 2 teams in the playoff. Personally, I thought Bama looked good against FSU. They lost a little with me each week thereafter.
Does Bama get in if Auburn wins the SEC title game? Apparently so. The SEC title game determined who was going to be #3. Bama was a lock at #4 already. Clemson game didn't matter. Miami was out regardless, and the canes weren't going to beat Clemson. The only game that mattered was the Big 12 title game. Had OU won by a field goal, my guess is that the Buckeyes would be #3, Bama #4, Clemson #1, and Georgia #2.
