Title: The Eight Team Playoff in 2019
Post by: Cincydawg on July 02, 2019, 06:31:08 PM

I checked some preseason rankings and came up with 8 teams for a theoretical playoff.  Lemme know who you think will win each matchup and I'll continue.

1.  Clemson   8  Oregon (Pac rep)

2.  Alabama  7.  Notre Dame

3.  UGA   6.  Michigan

4.  Ohio State  5.  Oklahoma

I could argue for Texas somewhere.  I limited this to two teams from any conference.  I don't think UGA can really end up at 3 and Bama at 2 but whatever, I didn't want a rematch.

Now, these won't be the "final 8" of course, and the outcomes are debatable perhaps outside the top 2.  Who do you have for the Final Four?

CW, this isn't "real", it's imaginary, so calm down.  We haven't even had the season yet.

I am now calm.

But I have picked up my marbles and will not play them on this thread.
