SEC Championship Bama v. Georgia


Zeus

Recommended Posts

Again, beating an undefeated number one to win the SEC championship throws a wrench in things.

It will not erase the Sept result. If the committee wants Bama in, they’ll have to scratch FSU. It will be easier if they beat Louisville in ugly fashion.

The winner of this game is absolutely, positively in.

The concern is if Georgia barely loses this game, does the committee try to keep them in?  This requires FSU to lose, too.  And it would be an absolute fuck job, but they could argue for the ol' eye test and just thinking that Georgia would beat Texas on a neutral field, so they're 4 and we're 5.

So, the best thing for us is for either of these teams to win by a lot of points.  We need FSU to lose either way.  So let's not have an argument with Georgia.

We are in over Bama my dude.

If only when two teams have similar accomplishments and resumes there was some way of differentiating them. Maybe they could even play a game to determine which team would be better so you don't have to speculate.... 

I guess we’ll never know

Now that we won so prettily, a Bama win here is what is best for us. Then the SEC has a one loss winner just like the Big 12. And the Big 12 winner happened to beat them soundly at their home field earlier in the season.  We won soundly today, so roll tide because between us and them, we should get the nod.

Correct, an ugly win wouldve spelled trouble. But we won in dominating fashion. Eye test and the bullshit. Bama aint getting by us. FSU will have to get dropped.

Do you really think the SEC champion is getting left out of the playoff?

If you’re gonna play the eye test with Georgia and Texas, you’ve got to apply the same thing to FSU and whoever. Georgia will not have a conference championship in this scenario and 12-1 Texas with a win over SEC champ will matter. These CFP people are all in Las Colinas watching the games. They’re hearing McElroy and Klatt and the rest of them. They’re all saying Texas has done enough to get in with one upset today.

Good thing some of yall not on the committee!!  
 

Yall would be the ones to put Bama in even though Texas won In T-Town by double digits!!

 

if Bama wins Texas is in OVER BAMA. 
 

the last thing the committee or College football wants is to say “head to head doesn’t matter” 

at that point schedule Sam Houston state and SFA for the foreseeable future

Y'all think 12-1 Bama who just won the SEC by beating two-time defending champ Georgia is getting left out?

That's insanity.

I know this is crazy but the team they are being considered against beat them head to head on the road by double digits. So Bama would then be out. But that wont happen. It will be FSU.

No I don’t. Head to head is one way to describe it the other is to say 12-1 Texas is the ONLY top 6 team to beat a conference champion.  It’s not happening. Now had Texas eeked out today sure. Texas basically

on okie state and that is enough for the 12-1 big 12 champs to get in.

There’s no argument with Georgia if they win today and get a spot.  I’d rather be in an argument with champ bama and non champ Georgia vs not being in the discussion at all.  FSU loss makes it all clean, but we want bama to win so we have other paths other than fsu loss

I think Texas going over Bama is an 80/20 proposition. Corruption is the only thing that would prevent a head to head argument. 

 Some of you don't remember 2008 very well.   Pollsters fucked us after the loss to Tech, remember?
