The Trophy Case must look like Gaylord Fockers Wall by this point.

What happens if clemson wins? They kicking smu out? It will be interesting how they punish or not punish conference championship games.

Tennessee prize for finishing in front of bama...At Ohio state, and Oregon...... Bama gets possibly the two weakest teams in the bracket, lol

That is hot garbage
OSU in front of UT is straight trash but if that's what happens they've gotta go prove it was.
Who woulda thunk it… Same soup, just reheated…

The shouldn't they came out and said they will not punish teams playing in conference champ game. I would understand knocking a 3 loss team out that picks up a 4th loss like Clemson.
You can't make that statement then leave out a 11-1 team that lost a conference chip game. And give teams like 10-2 Ohio st and 11-1 Noter Dame home games that didn't even play in one.
If they do that, No one besides 3 loss teams that have no other chance of getting in will want to play in a conference chip.

I do think Tennessee should be 6 and OSU should be 7. I think SMU will be in win or lose. Unless is a blowout maybe.
I just hope The Mustang's win the ACC and I hope Georgia beats Texas.

I think ND will be tough for anybody to beat in South Bend.

I don't recall seeing the vols head coach releasing a video pleading to be in the playoffs like I did Bama
I believe Notre dame takes bama our first round

That is a bad loss but that's the only one.
Sometimes teams like that will sneak up on you but that is the worst loss of the playoff teams.

It's not impressive for that to be your only loss when A&M and Louisville was your best opponents.
I think the wording was teams would not be "unduly punished" for losing a conference game. There can be a lot of flexibility in that.

Dropping a 1 loss team out for a 3 loss team that got beat down two weeks ago by a 5 win team is a pretty bad punishment.
Oregon is not going to drop out if they lose their conference championship game but they would drop in the rankings.

When in the playoff era has TN had a legitimate argument to be IN the playoff. This year with 12 teams in the mix they look to be solidly in, thus no argument is needed.

Correct SMU should drop....to the 11th seed they are 8th now. I don't think a 1 loss team should go from being in, to being completely out cause they lost a chip game. A game Noter Dame doesn't even have to play in. So lets Throw in a 3 loss team that got beat down 2 weeks ago by a 5 win and picked up a big win over Auburn last week.
