So, this is assuming Oregon beats Washington?

Yes, and Michigan beats Iowa, FSU beats Louisville, Alabama beats Georgia, and Texas beats OSU.

[Overlander]

Lot of assumptions

Who gets in with this scenario?

This scares the hell out of the SEC. Mich FSU Ducks and Horns all in.

This is exactly why we need 12 team playoff. Just win it on the field.

Who gets in with this scenario?

The thing to watch for is how far OSU drops this week. Where do they land on the one last team list.

I’ve always said 8 should be enough and still think that way.

I think 8 in the NFL would also work for me if it was based on conference record…but 12 was good too.

8 teams for a playoff is plenty. This isn't basketball where multiple games per week can be played. More is not always better. 8 would be perfect.

[InfiniteJ]

I'm good with 12 teams, but I'm not cool with the top 4 teams getting a first round bye.

I see. What your really trying to say. Let's just go to 16 teams.

Man this portal going to be crazy. KSU QB Howard and Miami QB Dyke already in portal.

So we not going to be in portal that much after a couple of years.

We went into this year with the full 85. Then Ballard who was a walkon was put on scholy. Ballard only played 4 games so he can redshirt this year.

So with the HS recruits we got and what I can tell we losing we one over for next year. Rules have been changed and no more limits on anything you just have to start fall at 85.

So after one name in portal we even after that every name means we can get one from portal.

that was a poor assumption. Go Dawgs!

[Overlander]

Hell of a game!

[TDub]

Hell of a game!

yes it was!

[RainbowsandUnicorns]

Washington in. Oregon out.
Leaves 3 spots.
Makes me hope Bama beats Georgia, Iowa beats Michigan, Louisville beats FSU, just to fuck things up.

Worthless predictions.....

OKST +15 vs UT (UT wins by 13)
Bama +4.5 vs GEO (Geo wins by 4)
SMU +3 vs Tulane (SMU wins by 4)
Iowa +22 vs Michigan (Michigan wins by 15)
FSU -1.5 vs Louisville (FSU wins by 10)

Not sure but FSU might be down to 3rd string QB who is a Freshman. 2nd string QB got hurt at the end of the Florida game and they are saying game time decision. FSU trying to keep Louisville guessing. After this year with KU it is hard to win with your 2nd string but 3rd string No Bueno.

Yes, I saw that FSU may have to start their 3rd string QB. Incredibly similar to the Bean situation in regards to a head injury and availability.
Maybe I am overthinking it but as a TEAM, Louisville (coming off of a home loss to Kentucky) doesn't impress me as much as FSU does as a TEAM, and FSU will figure out how to get the W with a TEAM win.

Cool.

So what do you think the final score of the Michigan -Iowa game is? I'm guessing 21-6.
Iowa defense can shut down the run game and force Michigan to pass but do not see Iowa moving the ball on Michigan.

I suppose since I predicted UM by 15 I will guess a final score of 26-11.
I have watched Iowa play a few times this season. I'm not smart enough to know if Hill (Iowa QB) is flat out awful or if the Ferentz duo is completely inept. Either way, I don't see Iowa scoring more than a couple of times on Michigan.
It's one of those games where I think either Iowa plays surprisingly well and it is fairly close or Michigan beats the living crap out of them. In other words, either a within a 15 point UM win or a 23 or more point UM win. I am not a fan of Iowa at all and I do kind of like Michigan but I would laugh if Michigan somehow lost. I think there is a better chance KU hoops loses to Kansas City than there is of Michigan losing to Iowa.

FWIW, I teased Washington up to +15.5 last night and I have OKST +20.5, SMU +9.5, and Iowa +28.5 today for a $37 payout on a $10 wager. I know, call me Mortimer. As in Trading Places.
With my typical luck I will go 3-1. Or 1-3.

Okie St looks like they're in for a long day.

[hartjack8]

I think Texas blows out OSU. They shut down OSU running and this game over. However Mich, UGA and FSU win so Texas is left out in the cold.
