[quote]Who goes to Atlanta?[/quote] Off hand I would say it's the teams who win consistently. It sounds like a lot of the argument here is trying to justify losses. There is never going to be an evenly balanced conference schedule among all teams, nor is there ever going to be any kind of "weightin...

I think they're just jockeying for position this week. None of the logic makes any sense otherwise. I totally agree with keeping AL,OM, and GA in that order because that's the best way to make sure all 3 get in at the end and I think that's what they want. When OH St beats Indiana they'll be totall...

I don't know how anyone can justify Penn St as a top 5 team and SMU not even in the top 10 when SMU has the same record and a better resume, having beaten 4 FBS teams with winning records (TCU, Louisville, Duke, Pitt) vs only 2 for Penn St (Wash, Illinois). Both have 1 loss to highly ranked 9-1 tea...
Uh, they still have to go win convincingly in the swamp. Even the most casual OM fans know that's not in the school's nor the coach's DNA. Maybe they got that monkey off their back last week, be we'll see....

They're a helluva lot better football team than I thought they were, but not good enough to win a championship. Have mercy on the team that plays them in the Gator Bowl....
We'll see how things shake out, but I think the only way OM gets in the CFP is for the committee to decide that a 2-loss OM is better than a 1-loss Penn State AND a 1-loss Indiana....
