11/21 CFP Rankings Thread 7pm ET ESPN

Oregon better hope Bama loses.

If it comes down to 3 1 loss champs for the last spot. Bama Oregon & Texas. Bama is getting it if they beat UGA.

They'll use the 3 way battle instead of it just being head to head to justify rocketing Bama ahead of Texas

I'm not sure it would come down to that. Michigan or Ohio State is gonna have to lose. Georgia would have lost if Alabama finishes 12-1. They aren't putting in at large teams until they run out 1 loss champs (ACC excluded).
 
Texas really needs Oregon AND Bama to lose. They could very well put Bama in over Texas, which would set off a ton of crying but I would not be shocked if it happened. A SEC title game win over UGA would carry a ton of weight.

FSU losing would also do the trick.

FWIW, if Oregon and Bama both lose their CCGS, but FSU wins out, Texas is still on the outside looking in.

I agree. I think the head to head will be overruled if Alabama beats Georgia. There are already examples of head to head being overruled in the rankings this week.
 
I don’t think FSU is gonna lose. Even with a lame duck QB I think they’ll scrape by Florida and Louisville

Could happen. I think we're all in agreement that FSU is the worst team in the top 8, so I'm hoping for them to lose just so we get better games.
 
The cognitive dissonance is astounding. The people who make the decision have Oregon as clearly better than Texas.

There's nothing Texas can do in the next two weeks to change that.
They can watch Oregon drop 2 games.

I’m not so sure. A Bama win and I could see Georgia still getting in.

I have been wondering this. I know there are some other things that might need to happen. I would not discount this point. In one breath, talk up how great Georgia is and back to back champs. If Alabama beats them 26-23 in double overtime, the CFP gonna drop the Dawgs from #1 to out of the top 4?

Only way UGA gets in with a loss to Bama is FSU and Texas lose. It’s not impossible, but not very likely.

It’s a lot more crowded at the top with good and deserving teams than we’ve seen in the playoff era. There’s 8 teams that I wouldn’t be shocked to see win it all this year. Can’t remember the last year when the number was higher than 3 this late in the season
 
I am ready. Are we not doing the Hooplanation rankings each week anymore? I know that we missed a week a couple of weeks ago and this past week. Just curious. As far as the CFP, I am predicting that Utah and Tennessee will still be ranked in the top 25.
Tennessee cause SEc and Utah out cause Pac-12
 
Quality losses gives you bonus points in the SEC
 
I’m not so sure. A Bama win and I could see Georgia still getting in.
Only if a bunch of the undefeated teams lose. UGA losing to Bama may get in as a 1 loss team, but only if you have FSU and Washington lose, might even need the B1G champ to lose to Iowa. I am going with the fact that we have to beat Bama to get in.

They will not put a 1 loss team in over any undefeated teams. We lose, we will need some help.
