    All of these scenarios show Bama above Texas if they win the SEC, as I have said many times here. In scenario 9, both Bama and UGA are above us. We really shouldn't want Bama to win the SEC. This will cause a lot of chaos/heartache for us. Since one SEC team is guaranteed, I much prefer that to be UGA.

    I am not making any assumptions about their biases but we know the general perception with regards to the SEC.

    So many people treating this as a mathematical problem to solve instead of trying to see it from the POV of inherently biased humans who have no affiliation with our university!

    History disagrees with you. There has never been no SEC teams in the CFP but there has been two teams regardless of the reasons. The committee's task is to find the 4 best teams right now. They consider conference championships and many other things but we don't know what biases they will be driven by. Yes, Tuesday can't come soon enough!

    No, he is saying SEC might get left out if Bama wins, which I find to be absurd. I am not arguing for two SEC teams.

    I am not saying they will jump us for sure. While Bama struggled, so have we to put teams away, so it was just status quo for weeks. Now if they beat the CFP #1 team, they have a better overall resume, which may give the committee the excuse to put them over us. Our win over Bama serves as a strong data point for us for sure, but while comparing the two teams resume, a h2h win early on in the season may not carry as much weight as we would like to think.

    The best conference in the country who has won like 90%+ of the championships since the CFP has been formed will be left out? That's your genius take?
  9. UTEE97
    Are you saying if Bama wins, Texas gets in and SEC doesn't get a spot? There is no chance in hell an SEC team doesn't get in. If you accept this, then why not root for the team that's already above us and why give the team below us one more stellar win and a conference championship that muddy the water for us?

    To think that the SEC may not have any team in the CFP .... is something.

    Evan Stewart hasn't liked or commented on any posts regarding the hire. Dude is busy planning his next move.

    Has anyone alerted the coaches that the next game is in Arlington? If we fail to show up, we are not going to have a chance to win the conference.

    Chaos in a weak conference with only one contender is good. Chaos in a strong conference with multiple contenders is not good. There is a general perception that certain teams are elite given their recent history. For them to have a close loss doesn't sway that general perception unfortunately.

    People who are hitching their wagons to our h2h win over Bama will be severely disappointed when Bama gets in over us with a win over UGA. Fair or not, that's how it will go down.

    We have the second best odds after Michigan of winning the conference championship.

    Sloneal loves this hire. Now I am sold!

    Most people think they have above average IQs.
  19. UTEE97
    Because it gets the fans excited and makes the university a lot of money?
  20. UTEE97
    In that scenario, Texas or Oregon will be out. There is no world where the SEC champ Bama doesn't get in with just one loss. Sure we have the H2H advantage but so did OU against us when they were ranked below after their Kansas loss. The committee will consider the entire body of work, not just h2h and come to the conclusion that the SEC champ deserves to get in before the Big 12 champ.

    I suppose it went something like what I do when I get spam calls. Hang up before they can finish the sentence and block the number.
  22. UTEE97
    But he lost to TU! I think that's why they probably didn't considered him. They could not have their new HC have a losing record against us.

    Liucci with the rare truth bomb.
  24. UTEE97
    This is what I am hoping the committee would choose as well.
  25. UTEE97
    OU dropped below us after they lost to Kansas even though they had the same record as us and won the H2H. Why do you think that is? Perhaps other games matter too? The committee considers a lot of stuff including H2H but it's not always the deciding factor.
