I’m not an Alabama hater but I really hope they lose by multiple scores here. I want to see how desperate the committee gets to try & shoehorn them into playoffs. They can’t use that bs Miss State win as a prop up anymore.
Maximum carnage. Auburn holds on, then Georgia wins the title game. 1 loss Alabama and Georgia both to Auburn, 3 loss Auburn with wins over the other two. All hell will be unleashed no matter what they decide. And how much more fun does it get if Ohio St wins too?
I think it’s far worse if Auburn beats Georgia again. If Georgia beats Auburn they 100% deserve to be in and Alabama has a fighting chance. If Auburn wins, you could argue they possibly don’t deserve to get in even.
If Auburn wins in a close a game both teams should get in imo. If Auburn loses then that opens back the door for Alabama & other teams imo.
Alabama should absolutely be punished for not beating anybody worth a damn this year. I have zero faith in the committee holding them to that standard though.
Both teams should get in meaning Auburn and Georgia? Hell no...
Yes. It probably won’t happen as the Big Ten & ACC Championship games very likely could be play in games for both teams themselves though.
If Oklahoma, Clemson, and Wisconsin win, we have to be safe in assuming they're locks.
Which loss makes it easiest for a second SEC team? Miami would have wins over Clemson, ND, and VaTech. A TCU win would have them tied on losses and head to head with Oklahoma, but you would have to think they're ahead with a win given that they want to market the title games and keeping both out I just don't see. I guess it would come down to Ohio St. This is going to be a bloodbath.
I really can’t see a logical reason for Alabama being in the playoffs regardless of how things shake out.
They have one loss on the road to top five team.
Where’d you stand on Ohio State/Penn State last year?
They also have 0 wins vs a current top 25 team.
They have one loss on the road to top five team.

A 2 loss Ohio State team who had double nickels put on them by a meh Iowa team? No.
If Notre Dame holds on their resume is better than Ohio State.
