I can't really figure out a scenario where Texas makes the playoff at this point. Everyone who rooted for Oklahoma to beat Alabama should feel bad forever.
At this point the locks for the playoff look like
Ohio State
Indiana
aggy
Alabama
Georgia
Ole Miss
Texas Tech
Notre Dame (Unfortunately)
Some ACC dogshit
Some G5 dogshit
One of USC/ORE/MICH
One of the other 1 or 2 loss teams (who cares)
Will you be tuning into the playoffs at all or just pretending the season is over after aggy and the Alamo bowl?
I personally think I'll be adopting Indiana mainly for the story and the hilarious outcome of a nothing program coming up in 2 short years under cignetti with NIL and the portal.
Hoping everyone loses or they cancel the playoffs isn't an option.
Will you actually watch playoff games at all? It's a question that I honestly haven't even thought of until now because Texas has participated in the last 2 and watching the other games meant something until they lost in the semis.
