I didn’t look at the sec standings. It is actually possible that the SEC ends the regular season with 6 1 loss teams and it’s very likely that they end with 4 or 5 11-1 teams. That would knock ND out and 11-1 teams from the acc or b12. The SEC teams at the top don’t play more than 2 other top teams and they split a lot of those games.

Aggy and Ole Miss with their schedule I think at this point are almost locks to finish with 1 or zero losses (in aggys case)

Bama has shown they can play down to mediocre teams, i wouldn't put it past them to lose to LSU or Oklahoma and UGA still has to play @ Ga Tech.

Really need Texas to take out Vandy this weekend and for OU to beat Tennessee. Those 2 get scrubs until they play each other after that. Those results would decrease the SECs shot at 5 by quite a bit

Love that the conference of mediocre defense that can no longer out-talent everyone is still dominating the conversation.

I hope when they set the playoff field, they put tOSU, Indiana, and Oregon in different parts of the bracket. It would be great if 3 of the final 4 are Big Ten teams and no SEC teams.
Let's say Ohio State wins out, including winning the conference championship. They'll be #1.
Indiana wins out, except they lose to Ohio State in the conference championship. They could fall to #4 or #5. (No difference.)
Oregon wins out. They'll be #2 or #3.
USC wins out, unless they play Oregon or Indiana. They could be #7 or #10, if Oregon is #3, or #6 or #11, if Oregon is #2.
The Big Ten is then in all 4 quadrants.
I doubt the committee allows for this. They'll figure out a way to put all 4 in the same half of the bracket.
Given the above scenario, Ohio State will drop to #2, with Oregon #3. Indiana will drop to #6 or #7. USC will be #10 or #11 - whichever doesn't play Indiana in the first round.
