We should just have one team in the playoff. Since we all know that they are the only team that can win.

And the same goes for Oklahoma. They play very little defense. I don't think Oklahoma could even beat Notre Dame. Clemson is very good, but with a freshman quarterback, I don't think they can outlast Alabama. This is Alabama's title. I hate it, but they do almost everything right.

I know a lot of you live in the North, Midwest, and even the West, but Southern teams are just different. I would rather a different team win other than Alabama (any non-SEC team), even if it's Notre Dame, Oregon, or USC. But the Tide lives for this. I could speak further, but I've already said enough.

My god the amount of SEC bias in this thread is amazing. It's like people don't realize how great OU's offense is this year, despite losing key guys to injuries at points throughout the season.

No SEC bias. You can read my last post. I don't like the SEC. I live in SEC country, but I am not with them.

Once again: I don't like the SEC. FSU is my team. I don't like the SEC at all. I'll pull against the SEC every time, unless it helps the Noles.

Bias? More like facts.

If their offense is THAT good I can’t imagine why they would be a 14 point underdog....

Everyone else should just follow suit. Jim Delaney is too dense to want any of his conference's teams to be making money in the playoffs to make that happen.

Ohio State plays Penn State then Michigan in consecutive weeks next year. Drop one of the conference games, add Youngstown State, and make it easy on yourself. It also lets all your teams artificially boost SOS.

The same Georgia team that many want in the playoffs opened +14 vs Bama.

Truth.

Alabama -13.5 over Georgia, "Georgia belongs in the playoffs."
Alabama -14 over Oklahoma, "If they were that good they wouldn't be 14 point underdogs".

And that was basically a home game for Georgia.

Something to be said still though that Georgia would be fg favorite over ND Oklahoma and OSU and ND dog vs all three

It's laughable how people say ND would get killed by UGA when they played each other last year and it was a 1 point game.

I tell ya this... ND is a better team this year than they were last year, and UGA is a worse team this year than they were last year. So to talk about how Georgia would demolish ND is a joke when last year's game was decided by a single point.

And everybody would be happy....

Amen. That's the idea situation. Keep the playoff committee to determine seeding and at-large bids.

LOL!!! Well said.

[seabass97166]

Heard a stat today that Georgia was either tied or leading Alabama for 128 out of 130 minutes the last 2 games. (including OT)

Clearly the 3rd best team but I’m fine with giving Oklahoma a shot, but I don’t think anybody (including Clemson) would be able to do that vs Bama. That’s damn impressive.

Won’t happen, too much money involved and job security at stake ..

Clemson actually did something more impressive the last 2 games vs Alabama , they actually won one game as oppose to losing both (don’t matter close or not )

Lmao. Fromms first start as a true freshman qb. ND literally put up only 265 yards and lost to a true freshman that was absolutely terrible on their home turf. Not a good look. Georgia would destroy Notre Dame this year.

It's actually worse for Oklahoma. Odds makers and everyone saw Georgia almost beat Bama yet they still have Bama two td faves over Oklahoma. That's bad news Oklahoma.

You guys are either going to stand behind your power rankings or you're not. If you're going to be wishy washy depending on how it makes the SEC look, then just be a fan boy and quit pretending as though you rely on math and science.
