2016 CFB Week 11 Thread

Pretty much all these scenarios leave PSU out even if they win the CCG--and the meltdown would be bloody, freakin' epic!

 

[OregonBuckeye]

The committee has to think very seriously about the value of over valuing a conference champ. Didn't work well last year with Sparty and Stanford getting their ass kicked.

Stanford didn't get their ass kicked, Oklahoma did

Go on a cry me a fuckin' river Penn State

Oh and they will. It will be....

 

[ExpatAkronite]

It would ne hilarious if Bama gags in the SEC title game. Not likely but the precious SEC would have no playoff team if that happened.

Bama would still be in.

We will be ranked 2nd if we win out going into the championship week. Let's just say Ped wins out which is terribly likely but loses to Wisconsin.

Bama will get 1 spot, I'd imagine if Clemson wins out they'll get a spot.

Big 12 is out, Pac 12 is probably out now too because the huskies schedule is doo doo. I really think we can get in even if we dont win the big. Our strength of schedule will dwarf any 1 loss team champion such as Oklahoma/Washington

Then you remember we lost on the road at night on a blocked field goal return where we out gained them heavily. They put 4 B1G teams in the top 10 which shows just how much they think of our schedule.

Also.... The other thing is that we beat both Wisky and Oklahoma. Here's my fear:

Bama
Clemson
Louisville
Colorado

Ok.....but Stanford wasn't really in it.

Louisville has no chance of getting in over us

If the CFP leaves out B1G Champion Ped St is the comitee conspiring with Jim Delany?

 

[TampaBuckeyes]

Final rankings will probably look like Bama, OSU (or ttun) and Clemson 2/3 and Louisville 4. Champs of the big ten, 12 and PAC all left out.

 

[Gothmog8]

All this talk about who is in the top 4. Meatchicken lost. I am totally gleeful about that. Any day they lose is a good day.

 

[Jaxbuck]

We went into this pretty deep last year and while I was ultimately wrong about the committee's view of Stanford vs OSU the "rules" for what thats worth are that there are no rules.

The conference champ thing is just a tie breaker if they feel they have two teams of "similar status" not specifically won/loss records.

Basically the CFP can do whatever the hell they want and OSU will have the best resume in terms of top 10 wins and best loss.

If we are #2 on Tuesday night it's tough to imagine them dropping us out if we beat scUM

That's what the fund is for anyway.

 

[TooTall]

Despite Ohio State now not controlling their own destiny, I still feel good about their playoff chances if they continue to win. No one will play a more difficult final two games if they manage to make it to the BTCG, and they have the best resume of any of the 1 loss teams.

The only team emerging from the B-XII is a team that Ohio State shut down. The ACC will get Louisville in as long as they win out. The SEC gets Alabama. The Pac12 lost big tonight. Washington's only chance was going undefeated to hold off Ohio State.

My top 10:
1. Alabama
2. Ohio State
3. Louisville
4. Wisconsin
5. Penn State
6. Oklahoma
7. Clemson
8. Michigan
9. West Virginia
10. Colorado

CO has two losses (pretty much out) with Wazzu, UT and maybe a CCG still to play.

Jake Gyllenhaal sad…
