row_33 Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 Three team splitting top vote in the AP make for conjecture, but it will all pan out in a few weeks after yesterday’s lousy slate we get rewarded hopefully next week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
/dev/null Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 Before the first official CFP rankings are released, my guess is the final four will be Clemson 2 teams from the SEC: Alabama, Georgia, LSU 4th slot is the B1G to lose Undefeated B1G Champ: Minnesota, Ohio St, Penn St 1 Loss Ohio St (if loss is to Penn St) 1 Loss PAC-12 Champ: Utah or Oregon 1 Loss Oklahoma 1 Loss Penn St (if loss is to Ohio St) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 My prediction for tonight’s rankings: 1. LSU 2. bama 3. Ohio state 4. Clemson they want to hype the LSU/bama matchup on Sat as 1 vs 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im not sure if I would bet on any wipeouts. I also think that through the pile, the winner of Utah/Oregon should have a spot, even with 1 loss. I also think 8 teams makes it easier for a Central Florida/N Illinois/Boise State inclusion (using recent examples of mid-major teams to make a mark) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

row_33 Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 (edited) All undefeated big conference schools will get in: 1) Clemson seems the safest bet Also possible undefeateds are 2) LSU/ 3) Ohio State or Minnesota / 4) Baylor that would take care of it all pretty simple, there's your four... not gonna happen.... i totally guess..... one of these teams flops on the way to the playoff (LSU can biff this!!)

row_33 Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 outsiders needing losses from the above 4 ..... a one-loss Pac12 Champion, a one-loss Alabama, a one-loss Georgia beating LSU in the SEC title game (would kick out Bama on the spot) bartering for the big $$$ bowl games outside of the playoffs has a lot better room for conjectdure.
