Well, because I tend to enjoy entropy in football, I'm going to contemplate the following scenario:

UGA loses to Auburn and upsets Alabama.
and Auburn also upsets Bammer

If Auburn loses to Tennessee and beats Alabama this year, something's up.  Either buy a lottery ticket or stock up your zombie apocalypse bunker....

OAM does not think much of Tennessee this year even after their resounding win last week over Charlotte.

I begin to think the Vols have issues with their offensive line.

UGA loses to Auburn and upsets Alabama.
Clemson loses to BC but wins the ACC.
ND loses to Syracuse.
OSU loses to MSU and then beats Michigan but NW beats OSU.
UDubb beats Wazzu.
WVU beats Oklahoma but loses the rematch.
UCF loses to somebody.


you are welcome

Unless Michigan loses to Rutgers or Indiana, that one can't happen. If the Buckeyes lose to the Spartans, Michigan will win the East even if they lose to OSU.

I predict Michigan will defeat Rutgers and in fact beat the S off them.

Is your peak entropy prediction this then?
MSU>OSU
IU>M
OSU>M
OSU>NU
Because that set is technically possible.

Do we want a second thread for this or just keep piling them for one?

My main take-away: holy heck imagine the all-Helmet playoff we'll have if only Clemson can lose a game and OU moves into spot #4. That'd be a dream - for some people.

College Football Playoff Ranking
1. Alabama (9-0)
2. Clemson (9-0)
3. Notre Dame (9-0)
4. Michigan (8-1)
5. Georgia (8-1)
6. Oklahoma (8-1)
7. LSU (7-2)
8. Washington State (8-1)
9. West Virginia (7-1)
10. Ohio State (8-1)
11. Kentucky (7-2)
12. UCF (8-0)
13. Syracuse (7-2)
14. NC State (6-2)
15. Florida (6-3)
16. Mississippi State (6-3)
17. Boston College (7-2)
18. Michigan State (6-3)
19. Texas (6-3)
20. Penn State (6-3)
21. Iowa (6-3)
22. Iowa State (5-3)
23. Fresno State (8-1)
24. Auburn (6-3)
25. Washington (7-3)

Florida is so overrated.  




No one should want to be the 4 seed.  Michigan needs to maneuver out of that spot.

As mentioned last night on ESPN's CFP show, I'm thinking West Virginia upsets Oklahoma at home in the final game of the regular season and then the Sooners get revenge in the Big 12 championship game a week later thus eliminating each other from the playoff picture.  Or vice versa.
