Last 12 National Champions Playoff for fun.
I'm going to seed them, because why not?
25 IU, 24 OSU, 23 UM, 22 UGA, 21 UGA, 20 Bama, 19 LSU, 18 Clemson, 17 Bama, 16 Clemson, 15 Bama, 14 OSU
Okay, hmmm....
1 Bama 20
2 LSU 19
3 Clemson 18
4 Indiana 25
5 Georgia 21
6 Michigan 23
7 Bama 15
8 Georgia 22
9 Ohio St 24
10 Clemson 16
11 Bama 17
12 Ohio St 14
Thoughts on seedings.....20 Bama's offense was just as productive on the scoreboard as 19 LSU's, but with a better defense and a tougher schedule. I like 21 UGA's 1-loss NC over its 22 squad because of a better defense and '22's NC opp was a mid-major team. Neither of OSU's teams was a top team before their playoff runs. The 14 Buckeyes had a shit defense compared to other NC-caliber teams. 16 Clemson and 17 Bama's teams had the same resumes and won NC games against each other.
I'm not sure where to put 25 IU and 23 UM, but I think where they are is fair.
.
14 OSU @ 21 Georgia.......winner vs 25 Indiana
24 OSU @ 22 Georgia.......winner vs 20 Alabama (I promise I didn't plan for 2 OSU @ UGA games, lol)
17 Bama @ 23 Michigan......winner vs 18 Clemson
16 Clemson @ 15 Bama........winner vs 19 LSU

Who do you guys think wins the first round games? Do you think any of them would beat a top-4 seed next? Champion opinion?
