I love how SEC teams squeak out close games against middling conference opponents and rise in the polls because ‘elite defense.’   OSU without two starters on the OLine, freshman QB in his first start, a fat man defensive touchdown and holding them to something like 6-17 on third down = 14 point win = besting the spread = drop in the polls.  
 

Not saying the defense will be elite against better offenses, or that WVU didn’t shoot both feet off or that the offense will keep winning games with a baby playbook and interior run game...just saying the narrative is so stupidly biased.  But there’s 3 Big10 teams there who haven’t played yet and Aggie doing Aggie things against Vandy.  
 

Through two games Pokes getting it done with defense, a good kicker and breaking in a new QB who missed two weeks of practice learning a playbook designed for a mobile quarterback.

How so?  Based on pure voting? 

I doubt it. We are going to see more losses with conference champs.  I don’t think there’s any way we go unscathed and OU already has one. Nobody will take any voted champ left out of CFP seriously. 

Schools don't need a poll to claim an MNC. You could see it with the American this season. If an 11-0 Memphis or SMU is left out of the playoff for a 6-1 Ohio State or Oregon they would have a decent argument. And if the playoff selection turns into an absolute shitshow you could get outside selectors claiming a non-playoff national champion.

Whatever it takes to get to 8 teams, really. 

Another scenario would be a one loss Miami that doesn't make the playoff after Clemson loses the ACC title game.

I guess I believe that even with this shortened number of games, COVID is gonna sneak up on most teams, and there will be less of an argument. I don’t think an undefeated AAC team is going to happen but if it does and a 7-1 or 8-1 OSU team goes over them, I’m okay with that and most of the country will be too. I do agree the playoff should clearly be more teams. And frankly I don’t think 8 is enough. 

Ohio State is not going to be able to play 9 games.

Mississippi State punked LSU in Baton Rouge. Aggy struggled with Vandy at home. Aggy ranked higher? Can’t take this poll seriously.
