    I can't imagine the CFP committee pairing UGA and Alabama again in the playoff so soon after the SECCG. In other words, if we lose I think it is Sugar no matter what happens to OSU and Ok. If we win, maybe it bumps us to 3, drops ND to 4 and avoids a 3rd Alabama/Georgia game in the same calendar year.

    If we win, it is Clemson 1, Notre Dame 2, UGA 3 and Bama 4, just like last year.

    Not for sure why u think that.

    1. Its very possible we lose sat.
    2. It's also possible (though less likely) that OSU and OU lose ssturday.
    3. If we all three lose, with our game being a close loss, I think we stand a good chance of getting in. Who would you put in, UCF?
    4. I heard Herbstriet talking about it last night on the Finebaum show.

    So how does discussing all possibilities make us look insecure? I noticed that you said "I HOPE we whip the elephant dung out of them." I'm assuming that you didn't say "I KNOW we will whip the elephant dung out of them" because you have a little doubt. Does that make you sound insecure?

    1. I honestly feel these two teams/coaching staffs are pretty even in talent. The score may not reflect that come Saturday, but that's my opinion.

    2. They could, and it wouldn't hurt my feelings at all.

    3. Who would I put in? UGA! But, I'm not on the committee, I'm a fan. There are a number of teams that the committee might choose.

    4. Herbstreit talks a lot. I think that's partially because he is paid to and partially because he just likes to hear his own voice. Regardless of his motivation, I've never really put too much weight into what he says.

    The posts I was addressing are not discussing all possibilities, only the one that results in the team being rewarded for losing. I'm glad you noticed. I will help you connect the rest of the dots. By saying "hope" I am being reasonable and logical. Anyone that says they "Know" their team is going to win is either arrogant, careless with their words, or ****. In addition to not being insecure, I am also none of those things.

    If Bama, Clemson and Oklahoma win, it's..

    Bama
    Clempson
    ND
    Oklahoma in that order.

    If Bama loses, Clempson, UGA and Oklahoma win, it's..

    Clempson
    UGA
    ND
    Oklahoma

    In that order.

    If Clempson, OSU and UGA win, Bama, and Oklahoma lose it's

    Clempson
    UGA
    ND
    Bama or OSU

    In that order.

    Yep not to mention I don't know as a fan if I can take getting beat by Alabama twice in a few weeks... I think the damage to either program would be almost irreparable.. recruits would be like wth. Hmm. Maybe should pre-order the whiskey in case this happens

    Lol. If who you play doesn’t matter let’s put our local high school in. They won 33 in a row.

    Is your local HS ranked by cfb? I don’t think so.

    One thing that I really love about the CFP committee is that the members are fluid. That means that the decision making process and criteria could change from year to year. This year’s committee seems to be willing to put the better team (in their opinion) higher, despite W/L. This could mean a number of things

    If UGA wins, they could put us at 2 and Bama at 3 so that the NCG isn’t the same as last year and possibly setting up a Bama/Clemson NCG.

    They would almost CERTAINLY put the dawgs in if UGA, OU, OSU all lose, because they believe that we are better than the 2-loss teams and better than UCF.

    This system is so much fun, and anyone who wants to expand it is just bitter.

    Go Dawgs
