Some National Thoughts

[Astcloud11]

Any power five team that goes undefeated will get in. Right now that is UGa, FSU, An OSU, UM, Wash, and OU. I think it is unlikely that all 6 run the table and of course the B1G teams will play. If it is five undefeated teams, FSU could be in trouble as could OU. If we have some one loss champions, I believe that UGa AND Bama would get in with one loss if OU, Wash and FSU have one loss. Of course, Mich and An OSU could both get in if UGa wins out (Bama has 2 losses) and two of the others have a loss.

Bama ain't getting in unless they win out, including against UGA. UGA ain't getting in if they lose their only resume game (SEC championship) after looking above average (instead of elite) all year. Only way UGA loses the SEC champ and still gets in, is if there are other more than 1 "1 loss" conference championship LOSERS. They're ranked 1 off being 2-time defending champs and have the worst resume of the current undefeated teams. OU, FSU, Mich, and OSU can all get in over UGA if their 1 loss isn't in the conference championship game. A 1 loss Washington brand may not be strong enough, but depends on who they play/beat in championship game.

1) USC - Lincoln Riley is basura. Maybe the most overrated and overhyped coach. His teams simply do not play defense.

2) Big Ten - Same garbage, another season. Penn St. thinks they're legit and are not. Michigan thinks "they're back" but have not played anyone and Ohio St is talented but still the same, these teams beat up on garbage and ESPN praises them because they have to

3) Texas/Oklahoma - Both beatable, will play again

4) Pac 12 - Oregon/Washington - Should play again

5) ACC - FSU is beatable. This is not agreat team, this program is not "back". They were lucky to beat Clemson and struggled with Duke for 3 quarters. If Miami shows up to play, the Canes can win that game

But nationally, it will be the same nonsense. The SEC Champ, deservedly, will get 1 spot. The Big Ten Champ gets the other (because they have to), then the other slots will be determined by how re matches go or yet again the Big Ten team that sits home (Ohio St, Michigan loser) backs in when the other teams beat each other in Conf CGs

I disagree with most of your points, but mainly #1 to be frank.

1. Licoln Riley ain't overrated. He's boasted as being a great offensive coach and QB developer with poor defenses, and he continues to show exactly that every year. Overrated would be pretending USC is something they aren't. Everyone, everywhere, has always said the same thing about USC/Riley since his 3rd or 4th year at Oklahoma... "That guy coach an explosive offense, but they aren't physical enough when they need to be, and his teams can't play defense." The term overrated gets thrown around way too much. He is exactly what everyone says he is until proven otherwise, no need to say he's over rated. Most said his teams don't play defense since game 1 of this yeara, and USC ranking started dropping even while winning because of it.

2. Can't call Michigan garbage for not playing anyone, they're obliterating the schedule that's in front of them. The real question you should be asking, is what teams could you imagine beating Michigan if they played at a neutral site? If your list is full of other top 5-10 teams...then how are they garbage? Same for Ohio St...ok, they're garbage? How many teams would you bet to beat them?

3. True, but, who doesn't look beatable this year?

4. I hope they do, first time was one of the best games this year

5. Refer to point 3. FSU looks just as beatable as every other team. A win is a win (against Clemson, on the road btw), and struggling with Duke for 3 quarters ain't exactly a bad thing; This ain't the same Duke that we're used to. You were better off bringing up their death match with Boston College.
