txgolfjunkie Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 This year seems to be the year where either a conference gets two teams into the playoff or a team with 2 losses makes it into the playoff. Here's each of the Top 10/11 team's best win and what they have left: Bama: @Texas A&M. Remaining: LSU and @Auburn and probably UGA in SEC Champ game. Their schedule is WEAK SAUCE when compared to other years. They've played a bunch of bad teams but that's not their fault. PSU: @Iowa. Remaining: Mich, @Ohio St and @Mich St. Holy smokes that's a tough 3 weeks. Then probably Wisc in the Big 10 champ game. If they remain undefeated, tip the cap to them! UGA: @ND. Remaining: @Auburn and probably Bama in SEC Champ game. This year's UGA team looks legit and could give Bama a run. TCU: @Ok St. Remaining: @OU...and probably OU again in the Big 12 Champ game. So dumb to have a champ game but whatever. Gary Paterson is a game day genius and I hate him for that. Wisc: @Neb. Pretty weak schedule so far and only real test this year is Iowa and @Mich. Ohio St: @Neb. No big wins so far but their schedule is PSU, Mich St and @Mich. Clem: @Va Tech. Only big game left is @NCSt and then probably Miami in ACC Champ game. Miami: GaTech. Remaining: VaTech and ND. Either Clemson or NCSt in ACC Champ game. OU: @Ohio St. Remaining: @Ok St, TCU, WVU and either Ok St or TCU in Champ game. Ok St: @TxTech. Remaining: @WVU, OU. They always crap the bed against OU in Bedlam. USC: Stanford. Remaining: ND and PAC 12 champ game. SEC will have either UGA or Bama in the playoff. Big 10 will have either PSU, OSU or Wisc in playoff...unless Michigan can turn it around at QB. Pac 12...geez...really USC or the Washington schools are it's only hope. I don't see this conference having a one loss team at the end of the season. ACC...Miami or Clemson. I would pick Clemson Big 12...even as a Big 12 homer I hate the champ game. It rarely works out the way it's supposed to. TCU is our only real hope but it all depends on Mayfield's mental state. Darkhorse: ND. They have games against USC, NCSt, @Miami and @Stanford. They could take one of the spots if they run the table. My Top 4 prediction: Bama, Wisconsin, ND, Clemson. What's your prediction at the half-way point?

Kor.A.Door Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 Mine right now would be Bama Clemson and 2 big ten teams. most of this obviously depends on whether or not someone loses another game, but 2 big ten teams is likely, the remaining schedule in the big ten is tough for 4 of the teams. So if 2 of them can remain with 1 loss they should get in. There is a lot of season left and many upsets so far, so it's going to be interesting the last few weeks here.

Berg Ryman Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 I'd say let's get weird. Chaos ensues, there is one unbeaten and then 3 1 loss teams, the PAC-12 gets left out entirely, even though USC gets close. Hell, maybe even USF or UCF could crash the party if they keep rolling their competition. My top 4: Alabama, Oklahoma, Clemson, Ohio St. Five and 6: USC and Georgia Best Non Power Five: USF Quote In a Hoofer Lite bag TSR2, 10 degrees, A1 setting, Fujikara Speeder NX Blue 50-S Stealth, 15 degrees, VA Composites Nemesys 70-S E722, 19 degrees, Oban Devotion 80-S JPX 921 Hot Metal Pro 4-P, Nippon 950GH Stiff Flex CBX Zipcore 50* (bent to *49) and RTX Zipcore Tour Rack 54* (bent to *55), DG 115 Spinner, Tour Issue Staff Model TG 60*, Dynamic Gold 120 S300 SIK Golf Flo-C Tour B-XS (2022 Model) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWahoo Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 I know I'm going to get laughed at, but Ky is 2nd in sec east. With a win Saturday over Miss State we “should†enter top 25. I'm not a big football fan, but if KY keeps winning who knows. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy Don't be concerned about laughter, there is absolutely nothing wrong with supporting your Alma Mater or the college of your choice. During my years on campus, win or lose, it always was "Wahoo, Wa" and we sang the "Old Song" as we tapped the keg. Yes, it was nice when we had those rare victories, it was not all about the game, it was about the party. ole gray and silver & black 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My top 4: Alabama, Oklahoma, Clemson, Ohio St. Five and 6: USC and Georgia Best Non Power Five: USF USC had no chance to be that high in the polls, Georgia could with their only loss likely to be against Alabama. The big ten could have 3 teams with 1 loss, or 2 teams with one loss and one undefeated, those 3 teams will be 2, 4, and probably 6 in the polls at the end of the year depending how it plays out. I'm just saying if they end up with 1 undefeated and 2 one loss teams that where they will likely be. With the PAC ten as bad as they have been they are completely out of it. Oklahoma with a bad one loss could still get in, but they still have some rivalry games in conference left. Clemson without their QB is out if they lose again. We could actually get Bama, Georgia, Penn State, and Wisconsin as the final four depending on whether or not some teams lose another game. It will be interesting these last 5 weeks or so.

Shankster Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 Alabama is obviously a super good team. But their schedule this year is... weak. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shankster Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 And so is Wisconsin's schedule. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kor.A.Door Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 And so is Wisconsin's schedule. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy No doubt there are teams with some really weak schedules, Clemsons schedule is almost as equally weak and they lost what they thought was a gimme game against Syracuse, so it could easily happen tonany of them. I think Clemson still lose at least one more because of the quarterback situation, Alabama has no real chance to lose, unless Georgia can do something, but they always seems to fold against them. In the case that Clemson loses another game it will open up more of a posssiblity for 2 big ten teams, right now there is still a chance, but Oklahoma with a bad loss as well, could still get in but another loss by either of those teams will put 2 big ten teams in. If they both lose it could be 2 big ten vs 2 sec teams. I do think that the overall competition at the top of college football is down this season, the PAC10 is horrible this season, the Big 12 is way down as well, the ACC doesn't look good either, even the top teams in those conferences are struggling against i ranked teams that have multiple losses this season, the SEC as a whole is really down this year, the only conference that has been somewhat steady compared to the previous 5 years is the big ten, and they havent been the greatest. I still think the committee will go with the one loss teams from the big conferences, that's why unless there are more losses by these teams I still think it will be Bama, Clemson, Penn State, Oklahoma, throw in a few losses by any of these teams and then it's opened up for some crazy scenarios for some smaller schools. It's going to be interesting the last few weeks. Quote Lefties are always in their Right Mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shankster Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 If... IF PSU gets past Michigan on Saturday, they'll get stomped the following week by Urban and his crew. If that is the case I would like to see... 1. BAMA 2. OXU 3. ND 4. VT 5. USC/Wash 6. Georgia IF Michigan wins out by some miracle... 1. Bama 2. TCU 3. Mich 4. ND Then 3. Mich vs ND And obviously a Michigan NC. But that's high hopes. The only thing I know for certain is that Alabama will be in the final 4.

Everything else is a “guessing game†Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy Guessing for sure. We all have our favorites, but realistically you have a committee who likes certain teams, that's why I think with one loss that Clemson, Oklahoma and possibly even OXU gets in, bitbi think they will all lose one more game, that puts the last 3 up for grabs, the big ten winner will get 1, the other 2 will be at large, ND has the contract full of Ifs, and buts, however they are playing slot of weak ACC teams that could hurt them in the selection. I still think the the big ten gets 2 teams in based on the schedules they have. Obviously unlikely losses will negate that but we are just guessing. I like the prospect of the big conferences having trouble, it kind of blows up the final 4 when they don't perform on the field.

I said earlier in the season that Georgia has a really special team this year and they have exceeded my expectations. It doesn't matter the talent level you play against, it's superior execution against all comers both good and bad that wins championships. Mark my word, Georgia could beat anybody in the country right now. Stay tuned and fasten your seat belt.

Beating up on bad teams doesn't make you good. It will be I terstig to see what happens when they do play some good teams.

We left there feeling that we should have won by more. Most say the mark of a good team is that they win the ones when they don't play well. I find that to be true. No one plays well every game, all we as golfers have to do is think of our last 10 rounds and see how much we vary from round to round. #GoDawgs ole gray 1 Quote Driver - Rogue ST Max Woods - Rogue ST Max 3, 5 & 7 Woods Irons - Rogue ST Max Wedges - Zipcore RTX 6 50° CBX2 54* & 58* Putter - Evnroll ER2 Rangefinder - NX-10 Slope Ball - Pro Tour Drip Bag - Xtreme Cart 7.0 Bag Heather/Red/White Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
