Better shrink the playoff back to 4 teams.  There aren't 12 great teams. 
Are there even 4 great teams?
U RAH RAH! WIS CON SIN!

But then how will Arch Manning lead the Horns to the natty, with Jim Nance announcing and "One Shining Moment" playing over the highlights?



If that happens, Jim will have to sing the song

My line of thinking is UGA is a "good loss" for anyone.  And by "good", I mean perfectly understandable and acceptable.

If you have a bad loss, KY, Arky -- a good/great win can offset that bad loss.

A bad loss/great win > good loss/no good win.

OM/TN fit the first criteria.  Texas the second.

With a win over A&M ( a good win, on the road no less), vaults 1 loss Texas clearly ahead of OM/TN.  A loss is self explanatory here.


LOL.  I guess Arky was a good loss for TN.....or something?  I wish the committee would just say:  "We're gonna pick who we want."

I don't know the answer here, but before jumping to conspiracy I thought they picked the two best wins for each school, and TCUN didn't make the cut for Texas.

Maybe so ???

I would think Michigan's name alone would carry more weight that Vandy or Arky, though?  They all seem to be on par this year.

the win vs Michigan should be more impressive than Arky

same 5-5 records but Michigan's losses and overall schedule are better than Arky

Arky has a loss to Okie St.3-7 and 0-7 in the Big 12

Maybe the list above was TWO best wins, not just best wins.  Michigan on the road strikes me as a better win than Vandy on the road, if by name only.  Frankly, I don't know how I would rank the top ten or so.  A team like UGA looks great for a half and then awful for a half.

I wonder how Tenn is 17 and Texas is 38, but whatever.  Tenn played Bama, both played UGA.

I always ponder why the top teams really only have 1 or 2 really big games in a season, sometimes 3 or 4.

UTenn played Alabama already, Texas hasn't played A&M yet.

And then I suppose there could be some difference in the OOC schedule too.  Golderned Michigan not holding up their end of the deal.
