    It could very well come down to Tennessee and the loser of the Ohio State / Michigan game. If that loser is Michigan, I don't see how anyone could logically put Michigan ahead of Tennessee. The Wolverines have one decent win: Pedo State. Tennessee has beaten Alabama, and absolutely trounced LSU in fake Death Valley. Ohio State has a slightly stronger resume. In addition to beating Pedo State, they also have a victory over Notre Dame. However, I would have Tennessee ahead of whoever loses the Ohio State / Michigan game.

    If Georgia, OSU/UM winner, Oregon, and TCU win out, then yes, it is easy. Those four go. The trick is if one (or more) of those four trip up on the way in (particularly if they trip up in their conference title game). Then it starts to open the door for a 1-loss Clemson to sneak in.

    And of course, it is a silly exercise to run Playoff scenarios now when there is still a month left in the season. But...what else are we going to do? I already voted. : p
    Like I have said, whoever loses the B1G east should not be in the playoffs. I don't care which team it is. But at the same time, if Tennessee can't win their division, they should not be considered, either. It's really hard to win a conference- give it some reward.

      I don't disagree with your line of thinking. However, I believe the Committee would certainly consider Tennessee. See, e.g., 2016 Ohio State & 2017 Alabama.

        I think they should stop doing that. Make winning a championship mean something, or just as important- losing one means something.

          I think that's fair. One way the Committee could distinguish Tennessee this year from 2016 Ohio State and 2017 Alabama would be to consider that both 2016 Ohio State and 2017 Alabama were co-champions of their respective conference's divisions and lost out on making their conference title game on a tiebreaker. Assuming Georgia wins out, Tennessee would not be even a co-champion of the SEC East. I don't think they would do that, but one could make a logical argument along those lines.

          • Game of the day, or at least half of the season- UO v UW. The 3rd quarter was epic, with 5 total TD's. And then the 4th opened with a turnover at the one. Which was then very, very, very slowly driven down the field- for a FG. Now, with ~3 min left, a TD to tie the game up in 3 plays.

            My goodness.

            • And UW just took Oregon out of the CFP. No chance to recover that loss.

              That was seriously a fun game to watch.

              • The suspected UVA shooter is a former UVA football player who appears to be targeting other football players. The three killed are all football players. Haven’t seen details on the two injured victims.

                          For sure, playing Austin Peay is a massive SOS booster. Especially this late in the season, and holding them to zero points. Always meaningful to play a DI-AA team.

                            • Ok I'll admit it's kinda funny but I must be missing something because I feel like I should be laughing my *** off.

                              I get the two songs. Got that right away. I get the game result. But why does this bit work but other songs wouldn't?
