Straight up (not ATS) I like: Ped State, Tsips, tosu, UGA, with the least confidence being Ohio St.

Agree. This is going to test my theory about the biggest strongest teams winning in meaningful, playoff scenarios.

That said, in a one game scenario, with a bye, who knows what may happen. And whose to say Az State and Skattebo, at this point of the year, isn't bigger and stronger than Texas?

Looks like we were pretty close @Shmuley, especially with Skattebo neutralizing Texas' supposedly 'toughness', of which I still am skeptical.

Really don't know what to make of Georgia/ND. Typically I'd say SEC strength just wears on them, but not sure what Mr. Rabun County will do in a true pressure situation. Plus ND has the veteran QB and are bigger/stronger this year than they have been before.

Shame that the SEC decides to be lesser in the first year of the bigger playoff, with Texas being one of the flag bearers. And Ohio State is going to expose them I'm afraid.

I think UGA defense and running game win this afternoon. But it should be a close, low scoring game. Wouldn't surprise me much to see Notre Dame win it.
