UGA beats Bama. Bama is out. Baylor beats Oklahoma State. OK State drops and Baylor is too far down. UGA, Mich, Cincy, and ND. ND makes the top 4 and wins the NC after Kelly leaves for LSU because it would be easier to win a NC at LSU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawg83 Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 There definitely still exists some chaos potential this weekend. Georgia is in no matter what, everything else is up for grabs. Don’t remember a championship weekend with this much uncertainty in recent years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSTSatchmo Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 Who would y’all like to see make the playoffs. Personally, I’d like to see Oklahoma State make it with a win and Bama loss, along with Michigan and Cincy provided they win. That would give us three teams that have never been in the CFP and one team with one appearance. That would be refreshing after seeing Bama, Clemson, Oklahoma and Ohio State always making it.

Selfishly- I want Bama in the playoffs because I want Ole Miss in the Sugar, that's a trip I can pull off fairly easily. As a fan of CFB and taking red/blue glasses off: Georgia is in win/lose so Georgia. Cincy. Let the undefeated G5 in and let them get blown out. At least we can shut up the whiners "we don't have a shot." Oklahoma State- I'd actually like to see them win it all no matter how doubtful that is. I've always liked Gundy.

They had SMU 48-0 before two late scores by SMU. Then there’s the 3 point loss to UGA in the bowl game last year. The ND job talk could be a big distraction though.

Bulldogs4 Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 My prediction is Georgia over Bama, CVG over HOU though that has the potential for an upset. Okie State over Baylor Michigan over Iowa Final Four will be UGA, CVG, Michigan and OK State. 2-4 order could shuffle depending on how teams play this week. If HOU beats CVG then ND could slip in. If chaos happens circa 2007 and all the underdogs win, then I have no idea. That would be fun to see if it did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawg83 Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 I tend to lean toward the weekend going chalk and Georgia, Michigan, Cincy, and Oklahoma State making the Playoff. But dear gosh if time has shown us anything it’s that you should never count out Nick Saban. Cincy is playing the biggest game in their program’s history on their home field, I have a hard time envisioning a loss for them. Michigan should smoke Iowa but it would be very Michigan of them to blow it here. OSU could lose to Baylor but I think they are simply the better team. This has kinda quietly been one of Gundy’s best teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSTSatchmo Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 Ok State vs Baylor was a 3 point game early in the 4th this season. It should be a good game, and the only upset I wouldn’t be surprised about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulldogs4 Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 I know this is a college forum but I am trying to watch the Cowboys and Saints. The last two-three years the only NFL games I have watched was Drew’s last game last year and then prior to that I watched Dak some. All that to say it is torture watching this game. It is 4+ minutes to go in the first quarter and there have already been 5 commercial breaks. Ugggghhhh. Thursday Night Commercial brought to you by football.

rebmus Posted December 3, 2021 Author Share Posted December 3, 2021 The Saints after Brees are struggling, bad. That's no surprise. Taysom Hill is the starting QB tonight and also short Kamara (best RB) and Thomas (best WR). I fully expect (and still expect) a Cowboy blowout, but it's 7-7 in the second quarter. Dallas best be glad their division stinks. They'll get in the playoffs, but won't go far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulldogs4 Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 This game on the NFL level was about as bad as the 3-2 Auburn-State game in 2008. Can’t believe I wasted 3+ hours watching it. But I did. Probably the last NFL game I will watch until the playoffs and then will only watch Dak and the Cowboys. Looking at the Cowboys tonight, I would agree with Reb that the NEast is terrible and they will make the playoffs by default and then exit after the first round.Unless their offensive line finds a pulse before then which I doubt will happen.

rebmus Posted December 3, 2021 Author Share Posted December 3, 2021 The Hill at QB for the Saints sure didn't go well, FOUR INTs. Geesh. The Saints better draft a QB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSTSatchmo Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 Baylor trying to shake things up. This would be good for OM, I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawg83 Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 (edited) Oh my goodness. Baylor wins with a goal line stand. OSU eliminated from the Playoff discussion. If there’s chaos the rest of the day Baylor MIGHT have a chance to back door in but they are most likely Sugar Bowl bound.

rebmus Posted December 5, 2021 Author Share Posted December 5, 2021 Baylor/OSU was a great game. Bama has been all over UGA today. UGA woke up a bit ago to get it 38-24. It's likely too little too late, but there's still almost 10 minutes left. Young has been eating up that UGA D today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebmus Posted December 5, 2021 Author Share Posted December 5, 2021 Cincinnati beat Houston 35-20. They're definitely in the top 4 now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawg83 Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 (edited) This should pretty much lock up Ole Miss vs Baylor in the Sugar Bowl. That actually should be a really fun matchup if Baylor goes into it healthy. Edited December 5, 2021 by Dawg83 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebmus Posted December 5, 2021 Author Share Posted December 5, 2021 Yep, Ole Miss /Baylor in the Sugar. 3 of the top 4 are taken now... Bama/UGA/Cincy. Michigan will lock down the other top 4 IF they win tonight. IF Michigan loses, I'm betting on Notre Dame getting in the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSTSatchmo Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 If Michigan wins Mich Cincy Bama UGA The one scenario I didn’t account for in the SECCG was UGA being blown out. Maybe the SEC East is just THAT bad and UGA isn’t too 4. Their best win now is the Arkansas win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF Michigan wins, I lean: Bama Michigan UGA Cincy Whichever way, I almost guarantee it will work out where Bama/UGA aren't in the 2 AND 3 spots. Yours may be correct.

MSTSatchmo Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Right. The first they’ll they’ll do is split up Bama and UGA. Any chance UGA drops out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
