Severtheties Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 So I know this isn't golf related but considering we have people from all over the country and the world I wanted to get everyone's take on the current rankings, what could happen this week, and on Sunday what teams you think will be in the top 4 and why. I live in Ohio and specifically in Columbus so I'm of course a Buckeye's fan. Even though we wont win our conference title, I think our resume speaks for itself. I'm also a firm believer that the rankings should end with the BEST 4 teams in the country, regardless of conference championships. Alabama will obviously be in and are going to be a tough team to beat for whoever has to face them. If either Clemson or Washington loses I think Michigan has a chance to also jump back into the playoffs, although that argument is made harder if Penn State wins the championship. I think Colorado also has a chance to jump up depending on what the teams above them do this weekend. What I DO know is this year has been incredibly exciting in college football and this weekend promises even more excitement. This Sunday when the final results are put out should create quite a conversation all around the country.

Golfspy_CG2 Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Pretty much similar thoughts as you. I agree Ohio State should be in. I mean come on, does anybody really want to see Penn St. in a semi final or Championship Game. I certainly don't. I'd like to see Clemson get another shot at the title, Alabama has had it's time...ha G430 Max 10K TSiR1 15.0 Aldlia Ascent 60g TSR2 18.0 PX Aldila Ascent 6og TSi1 20 Aldila Ascent Shafts R T350 5-GW SteelFiber I80 SM10 48F/54M and58K S159 48S/52S/56W/60B Select 5.5 Flowback 35" ProV1 Play number 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Severtheties Posted November 30, 2016 Author Share Posted November 30, 2016 I'm reeling at the thought of an Ohio State / Michigan championship possibility. I'm not so sure we'd take them out a second time right now. Lord knows they'd be out for blood even more so than the first time.

Brjpool Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Washington isn't one of the best teams, they don't deserve to be in period. I'm going to use the same argument I've heard from SEC people...the big ten is the best conference by far, they deserve two teams in because a loss for vthem isn't nearly as damning as one loss for Washington or clemson who are both playing in lesser conferences Bryan Pool Ping G20 Driver Bombtech hybrids Ping G20 green dot irons/wedges Cleveland Huntington beach 6 putter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWahoo Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Since my ally mater is considered a bye for many, I will remain loyal to the ACC and hope Clemson does well. Thank God, its Clemson, I'm not sure I could do it if it were Duke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GolfSpy Barbajo Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Gotta agree on Ohio State in the #2 slot -- after that, the committee better hope Wisconsin beats Penn State and Washington beats Colorado, then it'll be easy to pick Clemson and Washington. If Penn State wins, then what do you do?

jlew2144 Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Bias vote incoming...local to Columbus so no chance I say no to my Bucks. I've heard so many arguments this week for who should be in and who should be out that I don't think there's ever going to be a consensus in current or future formats. I do feel that it should be the best 4/8/16 teams that play for a chance at the ship. However I'm not sold on how we get there moving forward. For this year assuming each of these teams win their conf game it should be: Bama OSU Clemson Washington In that order... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kor.A.Door Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 There are many possibilities, here is my thought, Alabama is in, the other 3 teams depend on wins and losses in the conference championship games. If penn state wins, Clemson wins, and Washington wins, there is a huge problem, because you have 3 major conference winners, that may put OSU out, but not likely. So I have 2 scenarios. 1. Alabama, Ohio St., Clemson, Michigan. 2. Alabama, Ohio St., Clemson, Penn st., I don't think Washingtons, or Colorado's schedule was strong enough to get them in, but with this committee you never know what they will do. They say they want the best 4 teams regardless of conference championships, so if that's the case, those 4 teams this season have been Alabama, Ohio St. Michigan, Clemson. That's why my first scenario is what it is, the second scenario is more likely to happen especially if Penn St. wins. That's my thoughts on it. It will be interesting to see what the committee decides after next weekend. Lefties are always in their Right Mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jlew2144 Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Penn St. is the monkey wrench here.Again I'm biased, but I think OSU's record and current ranking trump PSU's conf championship (if they win) The committee has stated they want the 4 best and not necessarily the 4 conf champs. Think about it...what happens if Florida happens to pull off a major upset...is the committee then going to say oh sorry Bama you didn't win conf championship you're out...

ole gray Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 I don't have a dawg in the fight (my Dawgs beat TCU yesterday in Liberty bowl) however I'm thinking Bama will be the team holding the title when the dust settles. The Tide's defense is the best I have ever seen and could probably wreck havoc on many pro teams. The four teams playing tonight will put on a show and I don't see anyone blowing out the other opponent.

Kenny B Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 OK, I live in Washington. But when it comes to the Pac-12, I root for anyone playing the Dawgs (or the Ducks).

As good as some college teams are, they are just not up to taking on an NFL team... not even the Browns. That said, I don't think Bama is going to be taken down this year. But....

I played line backer in high school and solid defense is something I admire. With that said, the Huskers just took the ball down the field like a champ and scored....

ole gray Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Ok time for the next playoff game and I'm thinking this one will be a close one.
