2014 Preseason and Regular Season Polls

Uh, it's on them to win, which directly impacts our SoS. Also, when tOSU scheduled them, they had been a damn good team for years. The reason they were scheduled and not another MAC patsy was because there was a reasonable belief that they would prove to be a quality opponent.

It is on them.
That's why we can't rely on OOC schedule to bolster our SOS...it has always been, and will continue to be, a crap-shoot. We can't piss and moan if a team that beats doesn't continue to win...beat their ass in the first place and everything else is moot.

SEC could end up with teams with no less than 2 losses. I could see Miss St. losing to Bama and Ole Miss.

Alabama could then lose to Auburn or to UGA in CCG.

What happens then? Does a 2 loss SEC team make it over a 1-loss Ohio State/TCU/Baylor/AZ State? Or is the SEC left completely out of the playoff ??:lol::lol:

If we blow out Minnesota, Indiana, and Michigan, and then win the B1G CCG convincingly, I think we get in over the "top" 2-loss SEC team, based on how a lot of the media is now on our bandwagon after our win over MSU.

I like it.

Nothing would be better than to see a playoff of FSU, Baylor/TCU, Oregon/AZ State and Ohio State.

Let's just see this team take care of business first!

The S-E-C will not be left completely out of the playoff, even with 2 losses. If the S-E-C champion has 2 losses and the teams listed above all have 1, at at least 1 of the 1 loss teams will be left out, probably starting with the Big 12. I do believe if the Bucks continue to win convincingly they are in, especially if Nebraska continues to win until the B1G championship. That would give tOSU wins over 2 top 10 teams late in the season.

False, because even if Nebraska wins out and gets to the Conference Championship, they will still be out of the top 10 and behind some crappy SEC 2 loss team, because SEC!!!!
