You were talking about the committee deciding who gets the home games based on stadium size. That's the bracket, silly goose.
AP Poll is interesting ...

Well, for starters, not fair for Oregon to have to play Boise again. However, after all the talk about how Boise is so awesome and 'Bama is not because they lost @ Vandy, works for me! / sarcasm. FWIW, Alabama is no way in hell going to be the #11 or #12 seed. They will either win out and win the SEC / be the highest 2 loss seed or lose and miss out.

Understand and appreciate. I just think they "should" be able to do that to avoid rematches.

If Ohio St loses to Oregon in the rematch, they'll be the highest 2 loss seed at #5.

OK, so Alabama would be behind the Buckeyes. Point is 10-2 Alabama is not going to be the #11 or #12 seed.

It'd be unlikely. We'll see where the committee puts them tomorrow and know more.

FWIW, I put Bama at 9th behind a 2-loss Tennessee.

All the B.S. aside, if they finish 10-2 (but do not make the SEC CCG), I would enjoy them playing @ Indiana (First Meeting) or @ Penn State (Old Rivalry).

Definitely could be and should be if they both finish 10-2, but if Tennessee loses, it will help Alabama make the SEC Championship Game. I know UT won the head to head, but Alabama wins most 3-way, 4-way ties with the Vols for 2nd Place. I THINK if 'Bama wins out and Tennessee loses @ Georgia, Alabama will most likely play the winner of Texas-Texas A&M for the SEC Championship. Then, it would be Sugar Bowl (11-2) or OUT (10-3) for the Tide.

Pate said it the best.. no SEC team with 2 losses is going to miss the CFP.. same for the 10-3 team that loses in the CCG game..
gonna be a lot of mad people when it comes down to who gets in
1 G5
1 ND
1 Big12
1 ACC
3 BiG
5 SEC
BTW if SC upsets ND.. I think ND will be on the outside looking in too

Not going to happen. There are 4 teams that can get to the NC, assuming games go to chalk except ATM v. Texas, and UGA vl UTjr. Again, other than those two games I am assuming all the teams beat the teams they should beat.
SECCG is down to ATM, Tenn, Bama, and Texas.
If ATM and UTjr win out, that is your SECCG.
If ATM loses, and UTjr wins, it's UTjr v. UT.
If ATM wins, and UTjr loses, it's ATM v. Bama.
If ATM loses, and UTjr loses, it's UT v. Bama
If you get in by beating ATM, you play either UTjr or Bama. When Bama beat LSU, and we lost to OM, we were effectively eliminated from the SEC race.

LOL @ you thinking a 2-loss Missouri team gets in.
Obviously if Notre Dame loses a game they are out.
Pretty decent chance if Texas loses to A&M they are out.

Bama needs help to get into the SECCG:
SECCG is down to ATM, Tenn, Bama, and Texas.
If ATM and UTjr win out, that is your SECCG.
If ATM loses, and UTjr wins, it's UTjr v. UT.
If ATM wins, and UTjr loses, it's ATM v. Bama.
If ATM loses, and UTjr loses, it's UT v. Bama
Bama needs us to beat Tenn to get in. Then they play the winner of the ATM v. Texas.
Agreed they won't be the 11 or 12 ... if they lose a game they are out. They can gain a spot in the following ways:
- They will move up two spots this Tuesday because UGA and Miami will drop behind them. 9th
- They will likely move up a spot after the tOSU v. IU game as the loser will likely drop below them.
- If UGA beats UTjr, they would move up a spot.
- If ATM beats UT, they would move up a spot.
- Notre Dame has @USC.
- BYU losing wouldn't matter because the B12 winner will take up a slot in front of them unless they win the SECCG.
I don't think they will get 5 and 6 as those will go the SEC/B1G CCG loser. So, as long as they win out, 7th seems the best they can do absent winning the SECCG.

Alabama will be the top 2 loss team over anybody but Tennessee. Nobody but UGA would have the SOS and wins Bama would have but Bama beat them H2H. Ohio State would have a weak resume with only 1-2 ranked wins…Alabama would have 4.

I think I saw if UGA beats Tennessee and we win out we would go to Atlanta. WHICH I DO NOT WANT. Unless the committee comes out and says they won’t penalize an SEC team for taking a 3rd loss in the SEC title game. I don’t wanna risk a 3rd loss and would rather sit at home locked in the CFP

Ohio State is #2 right now over 1-loss teams with better SOS.

There isn't a chance that a 2 loss CC loser gets eliminated. If anything, the SEC and B1G CG loser will get the 5th and 6th seed. They will not reward teams that sat at home.
If we beat UTjr, you are in.

If tOSU loses to Indiana, they will drop to 7th or 8th. I doubt that happens. But if they do:
1. There will be 4 CCs in front of them.
2. The two losers of the P2 CCGs will be in front of them.
They are 7th at best at this point.
PSU with one loss would be ahead of them, even with the H2H loss.
So, depending on who is in the SECCG, I'd say that with a loss to Indiana, tOSU will be 7th or 8th.

This is really hard to call. The following could happen:
UGA beats UTjr.
ATM beast TX.
Bama wins out.
Mizzou wins out.
OM wins out.
This gives you 7 two-loss teams.
ATM v. Bama for the SECCG, depending on what happens in the B1G CCG, the SEC winner is seeded 1 or 2. The loser is seeded 5 or 6.
That leaves in SEC tie-breaking order:
UGA
Mizzou
Texas
OM
UTjr
3 will get left out.
UGA is in because of SOS, although the beatdown by OM will not sit well. But, 2 wins over UTjr and Texas.
Ole Miss has the better SOS than any of the others other than UGA. A big win against UGA.
Mizzou won't have a win against a single ranked team.
Texas won't have a win against a single ranked team.
UTjr has a win against Bama, a bad loss, a good loss, and not much more than that.
I'd go UGA and Ole Miss.
Mizzou, Texas, and UTjr out. Texas out because of their weak-ass schedule. They need to win against ATM.
