Who do you guys think is more deserving? Do you think 10 - 0 Wisconsin deserves to get into the playoffs more over 9 - 1 Miami or 9 - 1 Clemson, lol? :)

Miami is unbeaten.

The rankings are fair right now but there's a lot TBD in the next three weeks.

Miami is 9-0.

A 13-0 Wisconsin Big 10 champ will be more deserving than the loser of the ACC title game. Either a 0 or 1 loss ACC Champ will deserve to be in the playoff alongside of Wisconsin, except possibly if Miami has an ugly loss late in the regular season. Seeding is an open question depending on future results.

Could a 11-1 Miami sneak into the play-off if they lose the ACC title game? Possibly, depending on what else happens in other conferences and championships, but I don't think they would or should be ranked ahead of a 13-0 Wisconsin or a 12-1 ACC champ Clemson.
 
Huge game today for Wisc.
Think nationally, act locally...bigger game every Saturday before Turkey Day is The Classic featuring traditional black university rivals Bethune-Cookman and Florida A&M. The police presence along International Drive is mammoth and arrest rates soar but the streets stay busy every year. "Let's go to Orlando to get busted" could be the advertising slogan.
 
Game of inches in Madison...a possible TD catch by Wolverbaugh WR just out on the sideline and then Michikhaki QB fumbles at the goal line.
 
I feel better about Wisc after today. Still not convinced they win the champs Big10 game though but I would say they are favorites.
 
Much ado about nothing but an expletive and crotch grab by Baker Mayfield on Saturday. The Kansas captains started the mind games by refusing to shake hands with him at the coin toss. Then there was a unnecessary roughness play on him that was reviewed but rejected as non-targeting. The guy is a fierce competitor and let it go a bit too far but I'm fine with him getting the Heisman in a landslide. His stupid drunkenness and arrest was far worse than this.
 
Pittsburgh is attempting to ruin another perfect season for an ACC rival. Last year it was Clemson. Now they are holding Miami's offense at bay and clinging to a 3-0 lead in the second quarter.
 
Pitt taking #2 Miami down 24-7 as the clock ticks down at The Ketchup Bottle.

Richt had pulled starting QB Rosier a series earlier but put him back in and the starter responded with a TD bomb. 24-14.
 
No idea what on earth Richt was thinking benching Rosier. That was the final nail in the coffin right there. Rosier been money in comebacks and you take away his ability to try and salvage the game which he has been doing all year. Terrible.
 
UCF is 11-0 and one of three undefeated teams in the nation, winning The War On I-4 over USF, 49-42. Still not gonna be top 10 unless several more upsets happen. They will jump Mississippi State at #14, now a 4-loss team. USF not being ranked was a joke, with their lone loss before today suffered on a last-minute TD.
 
Chip Kelly returns to the Pac-12 as a Bruin. It will be interesting to see if the rest of the league has caught up with his scheme since he left the Ducks after the 2012 season.
 
Trying to work out who I dislike most between an osu coaching staff and a Harbaugh. At least one of them will be miserable at the end.
 
Harbaugh is so overpaid and overhyped lol. Paid all that money to lose at home to a Freshman QB rofl . Ohio State owns Michigan nowadays. Not even really a rivalry anymore.
 
Two unbeaten teams, whittled down from four. Wisconsin in the top 4; hopefully UCF can crack the top 10 after their championship game if they win out.

Amazing story if they do...from winless to lossless in two seasons.
 
So how does the committee sneak bama and/or osu in this year? There's no way they have a playoff without one of these teams in

They will pray TCU and Ohio State win their championship games and then move the dirty duet into the Final Four with the ACC and SEC champions.

Even Wisconsin? I could see a scenario where they win out, go undefeated, and Auburn jumps them.

Bama, Clemson/Miami, Auburn, Oklahoma.
mmmmmm..........

Of course Wisconsin will now make it if they win. But if they lose, the playoff teams are what I have above

I've heard around here it's awfully difficult to beat the same team twice so Auburn is not a lock this Saturday. Nor Oklahoma.
 
If Wisconsin and OU win, then the committee is off the hook, and probably relieved. But if TCU and/or OSU win...I don't know what the hell they are gonna do.

Will be a big stink if OU, Wisconsin, Georgia win...Bama over SEC champion? That's rewarding a team with an artificial bye.
 
Yes. as of now, Bama is out unless TCU and/or OSU win. I don't know what the hell the committee will do if both win

2 spots between 1 loss Bama, 1 loss Wisconsin who just lost, 2 loss OSU Champ, 2 loss TCU Champ, 2 loss OU who just lost (but beat TCU once and beat OSU), and possible 2 loss USC Champ (if they beat Stanford)

You're just not giving San Poob State a chance are you?

Tennessee not giving Schiano a shot bcoz he was at Penn State and possibly aware of the Sandusky nightmare.

Mullen going home to Reptileville to face a starker reality than Starkville...UF is now about the fifth best football program in the state and Florida Atlantic may boot them to sixth.
 
Jimbo to Texas A&M rumors...say it ain't so, Jimbo!

Why take a step down and be far away from the family. Your kids and the guys you've recruited need you in Tallytown!
