Wrong glass, Sir.
How long before they bump Tennessee into the top 3, just for a little insurance policy against having to make Ohio State #1.

Given they play Bama this week they should be in the top 3 with a win. Question is ..... how far does Bama fall ??

Kentucky stays in the top 25. Gotta keep that up so they can claim another “tough” win for UGA.

They don't want OSU #1.... reason why?
Let's say worse case happens and we lose to ttun as #1. It'll be impossible to keep us out of the playoffs.
Thankfully these rankings change once the playoff committee starts ranking teams. I honestly think once that happens we'll be ranked #1.

The SEC team will always get the #1 seed in the playoff unless they absolutely have to give it to someone else (Say Ohio State is undefeated and UGA/Bama both have 1 loss)
You will also never see them do a SEC rematch in the 1st round. They'll always hedge the chance at that all SEC national title game.

It would suck to have a playoff rematch of teams that just met in a CCG, regardless of conference. But they can also avoid it by having a deserving tOSU at #1 and the SEC CCG loser at #4. They wouldn’t mind making the Buckeyes beat both of the SEC teams. But they’d need to have an undefeated team like Clemson, USC, UCLA, Okie State or TCU at #2 or #3.

This rides on Clemson and USC.
They'd put a 1 loss Bama/UGA whos only loss was to the other at #3 over even a undefeated UCLA/Okie State/TCU and give them to the winner as the "layup" 1/4 game.
The difference between playing a fucking UCLA type team in the semi-final and playing Bama/UGA is so huge.
(This scenario assumes Ohio State is undefeated as well)
