I’m for TN, but feel GA will win, because I think that will  keep Georgia out of the playoffs.

Any additional comments from playoffologists that have a good handle on the playoff situation?

Stanford and Uof6 going to OT

nvm 53 yd FG for the dub

ND and the U's best win goes down

lol offside penalty made the FG just reachable

I think Georgia is the only team in the country who might still get in as a 3-loss team. Their schedule is just tougher than anyone’s by a mile. But I’d rather TN win tonight to put them as far out of potentially making it as possible. Despite their record, that would be a nightmare matchup for IU to host UGA as a 6 or 7 seed.

well, that'll make the basketball loss a little easier to swallow

They have had a tough schedule but TN is their 5th game against a ranked team and if they lose to them they will be 2-3 against those teams. On the other hand those two wins were Bama and Texas but still…2-3 ?

They should win their next two as they finish with UMASS (what a joke that the SEC does that during conference season) and GA Tech.

The player that a fair % of Colts fans tell me Richardson is going to be I think the Norris kid from South Carolina may actually be. Every game that kid just makes dynamic plays and he’s improving at an absurd rate. He did a complete number on Mizzou today.

Cool that I’m watching college football at this point. I can get used to this.

I was hoping B1G teams before mega-expansion would've went back to 8 conference games and implemented that cuz its a semi-bye week and lets you get a breather before your rivalry game and the conference title game and the bowl game/playoff. With 2 bye weeks now it seems pretty moot; I'd rather have a regular bye week than playing an FCS team or some MAC team and have to either prove a point score wise or have some idiot play hero ball and get themselves or somebody hurt.

I’d rather see Georgia in the playoff than notre dame, but my personal hot take is that notre dame should be viewed as a G5 school until it joins a conference. 

[Hovadipo]

Highly doubt they can weasel a 3-loss UGA team in. Committee is making it clear that they’re watching ball and not just looking at SOS numbers. Going to be too many 2-loss SEC teams to make that work.

I think a Kansas win over BYU would be as important as anything tonight. We need a 1-bid Big 12.

As I watch TN beating GA 10-0 (albeit, it’s early)……If TN has an impressive win  GA is probably out but does TN jump idle IU ?

Under the current format and rules, they are viewed lower than a G5. ND could be undefeated and ranked #1 in the country and the highest seed they could get would be #5.

Won’t be shocked at all if we get jumped on Tuesday. I don’t think I’ll be too mad as long as we only lose a spot. I’ll be pretty annoyed if BYU sneaks by KU and leap frogs us though. 

[johnsoniu]

Badgers defense managing to hold the Ducks in check so far. But their offense keeps shooting themselves in the foot with stupid penalties. 6-3 Oregon late second quarter

I think 100% we get jumped by UT if they win. Hard to make an argument against it. BYU jumping is would be lame, but also wouldn’t affect our seed, right?

Good point, I don’t think so. I just don’t want to be anywhere near double digits in the rankings if (IF) we drop the OSU game. 

[steubenhoosier]

So, what happens if Bucky wins tonight?

[Stuhoo]

Okay Bucky Badger; I see you.
