Week 13 Games Discussion

Texas = irrevocably broken

And it's glorious

 

[OregonBuckeye]

So Miss State wins and LSU's loss to Ole Piss becomes against an unranked team, but their win over Miss State will turn into one over a ranked team.

Or Ole Miss and Miss State are BOTH in the top 25 next week. That seems more likely.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding your post, but LSU beat Ole Miss

 

[BB73]

So if Baylor wins this, with both Ole Miss and Texas losing, how will they justify keeping 2-loss Bama in the playoff conversation?

Regardless of what happens this weekend, Bama will have ZERO wins against SEC teams with a winning conference record.

Bama’s non-conference schedule:
Utah State (6-5 in Mtn West)
UL Monroe (4-7 in Sun Belt)
Austin Peay (FCS)
Texas (about to be 7-5)

Bama’s conference wins:
Vandy (5-6 with Florida left)
Arkansas (6-5 with Mizzou left)
aTm (4-7 with LSU left)
Miss St (8-4)
Ole Miss (8-4)
Auburn (5-7 if Bama beats them)

Bama’s losses:
LSU
Tennessee

Because "Alabama"

 

[BB73]

Because "Alabama"

Yeah, but people like Joel Klatt and the Fox Big Noon host should be pointing out that Bama has zero fricking wins against SEC teams with a winning conference record. With 2 losses, there’s no way they should be considered.

The committee refuses to bound by “logic” and “reason”; prefers the “eye test” and if, what they consider “dudes,” are present.

And their eye test notices only offense

That can't be right cause Bama's O is kinda shit when Bryce Young isn't pulling shit out of his ass and Gibbs isn't making 80 yard runs

Texas is the #5 team in the country according to ESPNs garbage FPI rankings. They probably go off that in support of Alabama.

I like how the talking heads are pretending LSU-Florida State didn't happen.

 

[CincyInterloper]

I think the “eye test” refers to eyeballs expected to watch the playoffs.
