1-8 are pretty much locked in. Indiana OSU, Ga, Tex tech, Ore, Ole miss, Tex AM, Ok

call me crazy, but I'm guessing with Duke winning; the ACC is out. bama and byu move down, ND and MIa move up and in, to 9 and 10.

11 and 12. who knows. I'm guessing one will be a surprise, maybe Ala or Tex or Vandy then they throw the short busses a bone, and its N. Texas (24) or JMU (25) at 12. Group of 5....only 1. Of course the gutless play, no surprise and 24 and 25 become 11 and 12. Then we get 2 routs in the first round.

This is why I said, if you are a fan of chaos, root for Duke. Virginia wins, they would be for sure. This gives the committee some wiggle room.....lets see how they use it. I think ND/Mia are ok. 11 and 12 could be anything.

LOL. After 8, it could be anything. It is a committee. But I like 1-10. Any one want to hazard a guess?

Ole Miss should be 5 and Oregon 6. Not just because they are better but they played Tulane already. More interesting
JM is getting 21.5 vs Duckers

Fucking Alabama gets another break. Those fuckers should have been OUT.

And before anybody starts in with that fucking nonsense about playing in a championship game shouldn't cost Bama a place, there are MULTIPLE examples to the contrary. Here's one: In 2017, Auburn was No.2 going into the SEC Championship Game, they lost to Georgia and fell out of the Top 4. Bama was No.5 before the SEC Championship Game. After Auburn lost to Georgia, Bama got the 4th spot in the Playoff and won the whole thing. So, Bama backed into the Playoff after another SEC team lost in the SEC Championship Game.

And fuck Kalen Deboer too!

No way whatsoever they should be. It’s a mockery

We wanted chaos today and chaos is what we got...I thought Bama would get left out, never did I think the Committee would resort to the rankings shenanigans that we saw today.

If they thought Miami was better than Notre Dame they should have ranked them ahead of them last week. Neither Miami or Notre Dame played this weekend and this Committee decided to do what they did. I thought there was zero chance that they would do this. I thought the only chaos we could hope for was Bama getting knocked out and there would have been a justification for the Committee to do that based on how poorly they played against Georgia.

Notre Dame didn't get robbed and putting Alabama in is just criminal.

BYU (11–2)
ESPN SOS: 22
ESPN SOR: 9

Ohio St. loses and drops a spot, BYU loses and drops a spot, UVA loses and drops two spots, Alabama loses but doesn't move and Miami as idle jumps two spots ahead.

These people are idiots.

The Miami one makes you think they didn’t realize the H2H thing until this week

Miami over ND makes sense but why wait until the end?
