Who is the Best Bet To Make Playoffs?
-
I don't think Florida State has much real competition in the ACC, so they are likely again. Oregon for the reasons noted above.
Whomever comes out of the SEC.....and yes, I agree, Oklahoma.
But if Notre Dame continues to dominate like they did over Michigan, they too could break through.
-
Looks like USC or Oregon for one spot; Oklahoma, Georgia, Alabama, or Auburn for a second spot; Florida State doesn't have much competetion for a spot...
Dark horses are Baylor, Texas A&M, and Auburn
My picks now are: Florida State, Alabama, Oregon, Georgia

Unless two SEC teams go into the SEC title game undefeated, and you have 1 undefeated SEC team, and a one loss SEC team, that conference will get only one spot. Your scenario excludes any team from both the Big Ten and the Big Twelve. I do not believe that will happen.

A&M fans got big heads REAL fast. All of a sudden they're Bama...

Yes, they kinda are.......Bama loses to Ole Miss, A&M loses to Miss. St.

Well this just got interesting... Hard to predict, but here are my 4... projecting of course:
1 - Baylor - I think they finish undefeated and easily win the Big 12
2 - Alabama - I think they win the rest of their games. They have the most favorable schedule left in the SEC, and if Ole Miss continues to win it will only help their case
3 - Florida State - They just have to get past Notre Dame, which I don't think will be a problem
4 - Mississippi State - They'll finish with 1 loss at Alabama, and will not have to play in the SEC championship game. They will sneak in as the 4th team because it's pretty obvious this year the SEC deserves 2 teams in this playoff
Other contenders:
Notre Dame - if they beat FSU
Georiga Tech - if they run the table and beat FSU in the ACC Championship
Michigan State or Ohio State - Whoever wins that matchup, but it will take some other teams to lose
Arizona - if they win the Pac-12
TCU - if they can win this week at Baylor
Ole Miss, Auburn, or Texas A&M - If they can get through their brutal schedules and win some games on the road

Why is that? Explain

The eyeball test. They have possibly the top 3 or 4 teams in the country, in my opinion

Well this just got interesting... Hard to predict, but here are my 4... projecting of course: (update 10-12-14)
1 - Baylor - I think they finish undefeated and not so easily win the Big 12
2 - Alabama - I think they win the rest of their games. They have the most favorable schedule left in the SEC, and if Ole Miss continues to win it will only help their case
2 - Florida State - They just have to get past Notre Dame, which I don't think will be a problem
3 - Mississippi State - They look like the best team in the county after the last 3 weeks
4 - Ole Miss - their defense is for real. Can they and Miss St get into the playoff even though they face off the last week of the regular season? I think so...
Other contenders:
Notre Dame - if they beat FSU
Georiga Tech - if they run the table and beat FSU in the ACC Championship
Michigan State or Ohio State - Whoever wins that matchup, but it will take some other teams to lose
Arizona - if they win the Pac-12
TCU - if they can win this week at Baylor
Auburn, or Texas A&M - If they can get through their brutal schedules and win some games on the road (@ ole miss, @ alabama, @ georiga... not looking good)
Kentucky or Georiga - if they can win the SEC... it's possible
Alabama - tough road to get there
Oregon - There has to be a Pac 12 team on this list, right?
Oklahoma State - but they have a brutal schedule ahead, but their only loss this year was to #1 so maybe they get in

Eyeball test? That means nothing.
Or media/ESPN bias, and a preseason poll designed to benefit the SEC? When every SEC team starts high, obviously they will continue to have highly ranked teams.
I take all of the SEC chest pounding with a grain of salt. Many, many things more influential than team quality have caused this current "SEC dynasty"

SEC.

After yesterday FSU seems the best bet. They beat ND and the rest of their schedule is not hard.
-
This whole playoff format is doomed to fail. There are just two many what if's. They better not find a way to keep Ohio State out. Watch out.....it's coming.
-
Why is it doomed to fail? I mean, there are what if's with any option, but at least the top 4 teams getting a shot is better than the top 2
-
I hate to admit it but FSU is almost a sure bet. Week after week they get tested, and week after week they keep gettin' by. It's making them stronger.

Simple, You end up with 5 undefeated teams and only 4 slots.......what do you? How about 6 undefeated teams and 4 slots available?

I can make a CERTAIN statement
That school up north has NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO chance of playing in this 4 team or 8 team or even an 16 team playoff............. anytime soon.
Meatchicken, is DONE as far as national titles goes in football.
They only have a chance with a 64 team field. in basketball
I'm pretty sure the last time the so-called "legacy" won a "true" national title in football was in the 1940's

yaaaa.... ok. This clearly isn't going anywhere. .... OSU fans and logic seem to be mortal enemies...
