Wouldn’t surprise me, just don’t think it happens this year.  

How many times have we had 4 undefeated major conference champions?  Never would be my guess (actually not a guess, that’s never happened in my lifetime).

Texas is #7 and beat #18 Oklahoma State.

Bama is #8 and would beat #1 Georgia.

That would happen TODAY. They aren't ignoring that because of a game that was played in early September and that'll be the exact reasoning they use.

I think Bama would get left out if they win a close SECCG and FSU wins the ACC. Just don’t think the committee would deny a big name like Texas.

I get what you’re saying, and I hope that is how it would happen. However, Texas looked absolutely dominant today. Despite their opponent being ranked at #18, I think that game immensely improved their chances of getting in.

I feel you, Bama always gets the benefit…and Georgia probably will too.

But ask a Texas fan RIGHT NOW and they’re pulling for Bama hard.  

If I’m wrong, I’m wrong…but I don’t think so.

Boo Corrigan has to be shitting himself right now.

Washington and Michigan (barring some sort or collapse) are locks.

Now let’s say Georgia is 12-1, FSU is 13-0, Texas is 12-1, and Alabama is 12-1… who are the other two teams?

Also, remember that Corrigan is the AD at NCSU, he’s going to fight hard for a 13-0 FSU team.

    • He impressed Pittsburgh and Las Vegas both in first Interviews. I believe he has a better shot at the Pittsburgh job than the LV one. 
    • Well if he comes back, he's signed through 2030 along with Dave Canales. They matched up Evero's contract with Canales.    January 2030 for both.    Edited to add this, with all the reporting, people missed Dan saying they were aligning their contracts together to end at the same time. (Canales 6 year deal from 2024-2030.) 
    • I also look at his work there and match it up against the planned obsolescence that is part of the NFL as it sits now. Part of what creates parity here is that as a team ascends, the costs of its players go up, the position of its draft picks go down, it's great players age or get injured to often, their assistant coaches get poached for higher positions elsewhere. And even the best of managers can't hold that off forever.  Great managers can only play the shell game for so long, covering one hole in the team while another wears through, betting it all on a small cadre of veteran stars, sifting through the diamonds in the rough, hoping for something great. Sometimes they can do it smartly, sometimes they just break and give in to the wrong contract here or there in a desperate attempt to hang onto something. Sometimes the voodoo juju just runs out and they find themselves catching up to that can they've been kicking down the road and they end up in cap hell for a couple of seasons. And sometimes they're just the Jets. And the managers are also at the mercy of the whole coaching deal... great coaches eventually falter -- their schemes become old school, their locker rooms change. It just all wears out over time and that's good for the whole of the league.vReally, did we want the Patriots to have yet another decade of dominance?
