SEC doomsday scenario

[turney333]

Georgia loses to GT to go 9-3
Tenn loses to Vandy to go 9-3
Bama loses to Auburn to go 8-4 (downgrades Tenn's only major win)
A&M loses Texas to go 8-4*
S Carolina loses Clemson to go 8-4
SMU beats Cal to go 11-1*
Miami beats Cuse to go 11-1
ND beats USC to go 11-1
IU beats PU to go 11-1*
PSU beats Maryland*

*highly likely

Texas blows Georgia out in the SEC championship which puts Georgia at 9-4 with including 4 loses in their last 7 games against power conference teams

Playoff is Oregon, OSU, PSU, IU, Texas, ND, B12 champ, G5 champ, SMU, Miami with Georgia/Tenn sneaking in but have to play 1st round road games

I heard on SiriusXM channel 84 this morning [the College FB Channel], Texas qb, Quinn Ewers hurt his ankle in the Kentucky game this past Saturday & if he can't play in their game this week @ Texas A&M, Arch Manning would have to play. If so, that could put aTm back in play for a CFP spot if they beat Texas?

I think USC beats ND, which would (should) knock out ND with 2 losses to unranked teams.

I hope they beat Notre Dame, but I don’t think they will. If they lose, I hope it knocks them out of the playoff, but I don’t think that it will. But it would move us up into a potential hosting spot instead of traveling.

I suppose media bias and politics could (will) come into play if ND loses to USC, but a home loss to an unranked N Illinois (3 and 4 in MAC play, 6 and 5 overall), and a loss to unranked USC (4 and 5 in B10 play, 6 and 5 overall) should be enough to not make the CFP. USC did beat LSU and thoroughly beat Wisky. ND’s best win was week 1 at Texas A&M, but then they lost to N Illinois the next game at home.

USC plays tough at home. Their new QB of two games has a great arm and runs better than the previous starter. Defense is better. Of course there is the bias factor with me hating ND and think USC can beat them every year. LOL

SHOULD, but won’t. It’s Notre Dame. They get the same treatment as Bama.

If ND loses to USc, that gives them 2 “bad” loses. With 2 bad loses, the committee will still keep them in playoff, but not a home game (IMO).
