Not sure what we wanted there. This should put us above Tennessee for now but wanted to knock Georgia out.Georgia/Tennessee?
Looks like there could easily be 6 teams in the SEC that will finish the regular season with 2 losses. The SEC championship game will give one of them a 3rd loss so I could see the committee looking at the 5- two loss teams but will they pull the trigger?CFP Final Team Selection Count
SEC -5
Big Ten - 3
ACC - 1
Big 12 - 1
Notre Dame
Group of 5 - 1
A&M will still likely get beat by Texas which should definitively knock them out…Looks like there could easily be 6 teams in the SEC that will finish the regular season with 2 losses.

IU needs to make a good showing next weekend to remove any doubt they belong. Just Win Baby!!

if they put 6 sec teams in the playoffs they might as well just make the sec title game the national championship.They want to put upwards of 6 teams from the SEC into the CFP and will be making a lot of noise for this in the next two weeks.
A three loss GA would not have stopped the SEC delusionNot sure what we wanted there. This should put us above Tennessee for now but wanted to knock Georgia out.
When I saw the article on X this morning why 4 loss LSU needs CFP consideration, I had to laugh. A LOT of SEC media is already pushing BS this morning after yesterday's results. Lets see how quiet the UT fans are this week on X posts related to IU Football.They want to put upwards of 6 teams from the SEC into the CFP and will be making a lot of noise for this in the next two weeks.
Unlike FSU last year who also had a weak SOS, someone one pointed out to me yesterday ... there are 12 teams this year instead of 4. Even if IU loses Saturday (I think they win that game) I don't see IU being left out of the CFP.If we lose Saturday the only way I think we get in is if Penn St loses at Minnesota and I don’t see that happening.
Nope. They'd still have the third best schedule.A three loss GA would not have stopped the SEC delusion
good to see another Sagarin follower. I still like that poll the best out of all the polls. It shows SC's SOS #5 ... but didn't the scUM AD say last week when asked about SOS, that on field performance was worth more than SOS in deciding the 12 teams after after conference champions? I think my old brain cells remember that.South Carolina? Sagarin has it rated 10, and above IU and Bama. At 3 losses.
Playoff Committee is in Texas, so you gotta go there.If IU gets left out of the CFP because a 2-3 loss SEC team, the NCAA headquarters better move far far away from Indy or riots will ensue and that building will probably be burnt to the ground!
