Kiffin and the No. 9 Rebels are on the verge of loss number 3 in Gainesville, this is the kind of attrition we will likely need.

Yep. This wouldn’t hurt us for sure. FL is a 5-5 football team. Maybe this will be considered another “beautiful” SEC loss for Ole Miss though.
Really strange ending. 2 FL picks and almost a 3rd. Thought you had jinxed us.
Next we look at A&M. Lose to auburn or Texas and IU can breathe much easier.
Yep. Even with our poor play today. Eliminates them from the spot they said should take over IU.
Gophers have had a few really good games this season, so it’s not impossible.
Yes but now it will be on the road at Alabama.
The only way we get a home now is if Penn St and Alabama both lose today.
Idk. Getting in for the sake of saying we got in feels a lot like a participation trophy. After today i am not sure I want in. If we do slip in it is highly likely to be as a bottom seed. So, playing potentially our last game on the road just feels like a bummer way to end the season. That’s my initial reaction though. Maybe I will change my mind.
You're not sure you want in? Really? That's seems pretty much over-the-top thinking to me. Making the playoffs helps IU fb in multiple ways.
You must not have ever competed at anything in your life.
I dont know. If the thought process is "do they look like they belong", what is your answer based on today, the only BIG time game we've played?
We didn't just lose, we failed to compete which is probably the bigger FBS criteria.
I hate to be down, but reality is that the true negative is not the final score but the complete void that was our passing game, which ironically was supposed to be our strength.
"Rourke and company simply could not garner any offense at all, and it didn't get better in the fourth quarter either. It took until six minutes left in the game for Rourke to complete his first pass of the second half...."
Regardless, it's been a fantastic ride and I'm ready for whatever the committee does.
