Aka the SEC Selection Show.

If you can't win your conference, you cannot be in the Top 4. I don't care what ESECPN says.

Meh, they are going to be dropping like flies. Ole miss first. They just need to worry about having one team with not more than 1 loss.

👌👌👌 u don't believe that urself

[Peppermint Patty]

u don't believe that urself

I believe it 100%. Do not identify 5 Power Conferences and then say we will pick 4 teams with 2 from the same conference. Just be honest with the fans.

[whatnamecanipick]

It is Sunday. You got time to finish your report?

 

BTW, great showing by the purple and lsu gold last night!

 

Either one of those teams may have beaten Texas 23-0 too.

 

Well Ole Miss maybe.                 [sharedmedia=core:attachments:260]

So you don't think they should pick the best teams?

Currently if you have to win your conference it would be

1. Miss St
2. Florida St.
6. Oregon
7. Notre Dame

No Big Ten or Big 12

[whatnamecanipick]

Too much thinking for all of this hypothetical stuff!

Take the Irish out of it, put in Baylor or Michigan State. Notre same lost to a playoff team already, no need for a rematch.

Michigan State lost to Oregon in a game that was closer than the score. ND should have beaten FSU. The Committee has their work cut out for them.

You missed the hypothetical part!

 

make believe, pretend, possible,

 

I will try to be more concise given my audience!

Forgot about that one, that makes it easier. Baylor, Mississippi State, Florida State, Oregon.

[Roper84]

No KState?

[PhatMack19]

No KState?

I still think TCU is the best Big 12 team I've seen play. K-State has 4 tough games remaining, so if they win out they should be in.


As for the Big 12 and that One True Champion crap, I predict it's about to be one big tie at the end of the year.

It is funny that you have more post about the BIG 12 than the sec.

 

Who has the infatuation?

That woukd better than what I've seen so far. Someone will get screwed this year, but it should not be by a team that may not even play in their conference championship game.

[OldTimer]

If anyone thinks that this is going to solve the question of who is the best they are sorely mistaken - there are several teams that will have 1 or 2 losses that will and should be in the conversation about a playoff.  Until they make it more than a 10 team process there will always be the "what about this team or that team" after the selection process is completed.

 

My Prediction on the top 4 for the first week:

 

Mississippi State

Florida State

Oregon

Alabama

 

Next Two:

Notre Dame 

Michigan State

 

Alabama or Mississippi State will drop out when they play each other in a couple of weeks - watch the SEC screw it up and have Alabama beat MS and then both of them will be on the bubble :( Florida State will likely win out as should Oregon.  And if Michigan State beats Ohio State this weekend they likely will win out as well.

[Roper84]

My prediction:
Miss State
FSU
Oregon
Norte Dame

[Peppermint Patty]

My prediction:
Miss State
FSU
Oregon
Norte Dame

 

I could live with that.

[whatnamecanipick]

Are these predictions for the final four teams or tonight's rankings?

 

Isn't this what everyone wanted instead of the BCS?

Mich St would beat notre dame and FSU. Already lost to Oregon but I think would be a good match against Miss St.

 

Miss St and I have no Idea who else will be there at the end is my picks lol.

The only reason to announce anything tonight is to drive TV ratings and give us something to gripe about for the next few months. Should be fun though.
