Washington is going to lose to USC Saturday so it won’t matter. If we win out we are in

Unfortunately you're probably correct. All of the remaining unbeatens have pretty big names, and all have enough "good" wins in the eyes of the pollsters.

I seriously doubt everyone wins out though- Washington has a brutal (by Pac12 standards) finish to the season, Ohio State/Michigan has a guaranteed loss between them, and Oklahoma will face Texas again.

We definitely need Oklahoma to win the Big 12, though. Texas would end up jumping us.

It will be interesting how Texas does down the stretch if Ewers misses many games. But OU winning out and going undefeated does not help us at all.

Our best chance is probably the PAC12 having a 1 loss champ. The B10 will get a 1 loss champ in and FSU if undefeated will get in.

Ewers to miss significant time with AC joint sprain.

An Oklahoma team who beat Texas twice would most likely get the nod over Bama as well.

Well yeah, that's a given. Unless OU blows it twice to teams that are not Texas, we need them to win out. If it's 13-0 OU, 11-1 Alabama and 11-2 Texas, we're probably getting in (assuming there aren't 4 undefeated teams). If it comes down to 12-1 OU, 12-1 Texas and 12-1 Alabama, there's a chance we get left out

All depends on the other teams, really. If Washington, FSU, and Ohio State/Michigan are all undefeated, we're probably getting left out anyway. The way I see it is that we're better off as the only one-loss team at the end of the year
