A mellow fellow
1. Alabama (12-0)
2. Ohio State (11-1)
3. Clemson (11-1)
4. Washington (11-1)
5. Michigan (10-2)
6. Wisconsin (10-2)
7. Colorado (10-2)
8. Penn State (10-2)
9. Oklahoma (9-2)
10. Oklahoma State (9-2)
BUZZ... Western Michigan (12-0)
So let us discuss...
Point 1: I believe at this point that Alabama is a lock in the Playoff, even with a loss.
Point 2: The Committee has put themselves in a position where they cannot drop Ohio State out, unless (a) Colorado, Clemson, and Penn State all win convincingly in their title games or (b) Wisconsin, Washington, and Oklahoma State " " ".
Point 3: And even if Point 2 happens, they still may not drop them out for a conference champion.
Point 4: That leaves us with 2 cemented teams in the Playoffs: Alabama and Ohio State.
Point 5: That leaves 2 slots open for the following 8 teams listed, and Western Michigan(for argument's sake)
Point 6: What happens if Clemson and Washington lose? Do they put in the B10 Champ and Colorado? Do they slip in the Bedlam winner? What do you think?
I believe this scenario is possible.
1. Alabama (13-0)
2. Ohio State (11-1)
3. Penn State (11-2)
4. Michigan (10-2)
Call me batshit crazy, but yes... it is theoretically possible. Not 2... but 3 B10 teams in the Playoff. Maybe not in that order, but it is possible. I'm not sure if they would put in Wisconsin in this situation because they are 0-2 vs. Mich/OSU. Penn State is 1-1 vs. Mich/OSU. Michigan also holds the H2H advantage over Colorado if they win the PAC12. OSU holds the H2H advantage over Oklahoma if they win the PAC12.
I'm just saying y'all. It probably won't happen, but it is DAMN sure possible. Feel free to elaborate.
