Yes that was one of our potential avenues. Closed now. So congrats those of you pulling for Washington for whatever reason that could never be articulated. 

Silver lining on the Oregon loss. Eye test was invalidated. Head to head ruled the day. Advantage Texas if it comes down to Bama and Texas.

That would be for a spot that was potentially open due to Washington losing. That is now gone because Washington took that spot. One spot we could have gotten is 100 % closed. But you keep talking losing a beauty contest. We at least had a chance in that beauty contest. Now, absolutely no chance.

There are other avenues, but that one is gone. I'm happy for you that you don't have to worry about that anymore though. That's the most important thing.

Goddamn people, the committee has tried to tell you for 6 weeks the Pac12 champion is in.

I feel like I'm reading Texags with some of this dumb shit.  
Root for Alabama and mostly Louisville.

The dumbshits on the committee will likely still put jawja in if they lose in a close game to Bama.  Jawja has won 2 straight National Championships...

So if FSU loses and Bama wins its...

  1. Michigan
  2. Washington
  3. Bama
  4. Jawja

Losses by FSU and Bama are the only sure way Texas gets in (assuming the wolverines win)

No they won’t, no one thinks that expect for the Sansky and a couple random people who keep posting it. 

NO ONE THAT LOSES TODAY IS GOING TO THE PLAYOFFS*

 

*(unless all hell breaks loose including us losing and then idgaf)

Nobody is arguing that. Everyone agrees that the committee was 99% going to select the Pac10. But it's not an absolute. Very likely, yes. But not a 100% guarantee. And that's what's so frustrating arguing with idiots. You are stating with 100% certainly that you know what the committee was going to do and while they likely would have done that, there was a chance. However small. 1 in 100 is still better than 0.

There would have been a discussion and you would have heard all about it from talking heads if we win our game...Should it be Texas or Oregon? And the committee would have heard that as well.

Count the number of times you hear Texas should get in over Washington. It will be 0. And that's because there is no argument.

I'm out. It's a moo point and some people just don't understand math.

It's hilarious trying to argue what will happen with this stupid CFP committee system.

It will be crazy to read Surly if...

Bama wins, FSU loses & Texas gets left out.

They aren’t going to put a 1 loss team that lost to bama in over a 1 loss team that beat bama. 
 

caution of absolutes applies, but that’s not how this works and they’d have to make a giant deviation, with their rationale having to do with results from previous seasons.

That's your problem. It has nothing to do with math. If Oregon had won a close game, most people would be talking about how both teams deserve to be in just like what will happen if Bama wins a close one. You are hanging your hat on the "math" that Texas should be in but the committee wants nothing to do with math. These two conferences are guaranteed at least one spot each. There wouldn't have been any internal discussion to leave one out. That's in your head, not a reality to bank on. Best to yield these two spots (not more) and hope for upsets in the other two.

Not half as annoying as those who will  show up and say they KNEW Texas would make it and they never actually believed 1-loss Georgia or Ohio State would be in ahead of us. And they were just making an argument / asking questions previously

I agree that the PAC 12 had a spot locked. I disagree that the SEC does, as hard as that may be to believe for some of you. I guess let's see how this day plays out.

Too many people here are underestimating the possibility of Ohio State remaining ahead of UT in the rankings no matter what happens.  It’s certainly possible UT leapfrogs OSU with a win, but it is definitely not a certainty.  The 2023 version of The Big XII isn’t doing us any favors in terms of conference strength and while ranked, a win over Ok. State isn’t worth that much nationally (really needed that OU win).  Yes, Bama on the road is a feather in the cap, but it was early and college football has always had a decency bias.  Would’ve helped if UT had won more Big XII games more convincingly.  My gut is we needed (2), not (1) undefeated ahead of us in the rankings to get into the CFP.

Dumb post is dumb

What is the scenario here you're worried about?

Bama winning and both SEC teams getting in, probably. Dumb thing to be scared of. Better chance of being locked out by 4 undefeated teams than being #5 behind a one-loss non-champ UGA

Yeah it's possible for both to get in, but it would involve Texas losing.

Are you dense or disingenuous? Try addressing what I actually wrote.

Yoir argument has been addressed a million times. Not my problem if your mom dropped you in the head while doing the mailman.
