I know it wouldn’t be a first round rematch.  I was implying both teams winning the first round game to have a championship game rematch.

I hope TCU loses by a field goal.

Then the rankings will be Georgia number one Michigan number two, USC number three TCU number four

I think Michigan is better than Georgia this year. With McCarthy 2.0, in other words this year‘s version, I think they’re too much for Georgia to handle. I was at that game last year and Michigan needed a mobile quarterback.

The matchup I want to see his Michigan versus USC. USC has The potential to turn a game with Michigan into a track meet.  The potential to turn a game with Michigan into a track meet 

I think they could make it interesting, but of the four teams remaining I think Michigan is the strongest
still think Georgia is the strongest. Why? Two reasons. The championship big game experience of that QB and the fact that he just seems to be at his best in the biggest games. Reason two their TE room. They have 3 TEs that could legitamtely start on any team in the P5 right now. I think they have the 3 most talented TEs in the entire country on one team. I don't know how you scheme to stop all 3 of those TEs. If they want to get into 3 TE sets, you're screwed.

I don't think Utah is going to win tonight however. It's REALLY hard to beat the same team twice in a college football season.
Evenly matched - YES only Cleveland and Detroit teams get a waiver under those conditions because they seem buck the odds everytime

yep. I was way off. Looks like it's a lot easier to win rematches when the other team sucks on defense lol.

It is a myth that it is unusually hard to beat the same team twice in a year.  It happens more than half the time in competitive contests.

By my count, there have been 24 instances of two teams meeting in the conference championship game after meeting during the regular season. Teams that won the regular season game are 15-9 in the rematch.

In the 15 instances that resulted in sweeps, the margin of victory in the rematch was larger than the margin of victory in the first game eight times. Thanks in part to Texas' 70-3 obliteration of Colorado in the 2005 Big 12 Championship Game, the mean margin of victory in the rematch was 20.7, while the mean margin of victory in the first game was 14.6.

Sure, in the smaller subset of NC games there often is a reversal, but overall, if you include CG rematches and playoff rematches, the story is most of the time it is 2-0.

These are competitive games, if it was 50-50, you might think it about as hard to win two, but it's not 50-50.  To say it's tough to beat the same team twice would imply the ratio is less than 50-50, it isn't.

My guess is UGA will play OSU in the playoff.  OSU would have a good shot at winning I think, the Dawg secondary looked bad last night, though they usually play pretty well.
