Mid-day Game Thread: We have-- USU vs SDSU; App State vs ULL (nee USL ..U of Slow Learning); Houston vs Cincinnati; and Alabama vs Georgia.

I believe Alabama will move to #1, UM #2, GA #3, Cincy #5
UM vs Ga.

I don't see a 12-1 Bama jumping a 13-0 UM if Michigan wins tonight. The committee will look at the body of work not just the conf championship games. Bama has too many narrow victories on their resume.

Michigan lost to Michigan State…they’d also be 12-1.

OK DELION, I pay so little attention to the playoff scheme of college football, I just assumed that UM had one lose..shame on me. I’m not a frequent flyer when it comes to other teams ….any longer.

But they have 3 wins over teams in the top 25…and their one loss to a team that will be 1st or 2nd. There certainly aren’t 4 teams with better resumes than that right now.

Who are the 4 teams that are more deserving?

Agree with you.

This is why I want a set criteria playoff.

You're right - been a long day. But I still think UM would get the nod (and I am no Michigan fan).

Michigan will fall out of the sky burning, like the Red Baron, with holding penalties in the trenches against Bama and that other SEC team

I was away from the board last evening. Alabama is a pleasure to watch. What a well oiled machine. "Gotta name for the winners in the world."
