    Nah. One thing the committee has shown the last 2 years is that the first poll means nothing at all

    They could still make it, others would just have to lose or...dont forget the shady committee. This is year 3 and theyve been shady the first two years. Theyve shown they can do whatever they want.

    Considering they play Michigan, that's a given. Zero chance the committee leaves them out if they win the big 10 with one loss. Zero

    Ohio State will be in Playoff as long as they don't lose any more games. That would make last night's loss meaningless except for maybe affecting their seeding.

    No, Beating Michigan is enough (provided they don't lose any more games).

    It seems like there is only one Playoff spot truly up for grabs, three spots will go to SEC champ, Big Ten Champ and ACC champ as long as none of those teams have more than one loss. If Washington goes undefeated, then playoffs are set. If Washington loses a game, THEN it becomes interesting.

    Key is Ohio State and Michigan are both legitimately MUCH better than anything Big 12 has to offer (see Ohio State AT Oklahoma), Big 12 champ would need a LOT to happen to get in.

    Ohio State was rated lower the year they won it and was considered worse than this team.

    OU was in the playoff last year with 1 loss. Not having a championship game does not hurt if you are OU or Texas. Doesn't help if you aren't because you have to play OU or Texas to get in.

    Big 12 is not very good so not likely they have anybody to get in. But if Baylor wins out, it would be pretty hard to keep them out but might be an NCAA punishment for Rape 'Em Bears.

    Baylor would be punished for playing the worst non-conference SOS in the country. A one-loss second team from one of the other major conferences should be ahead of Baylor in the pecking order.

    Not this year. The two teams with a chance -- Baylor and WVU -- play each other on December 3 just like every other conference championship game.

    Yeah, No Shot Louisville wins ACC because Clemson will not lose two regular season games. There IS a chance BOTH Clemson and Louisville both get in if: A) neither loses again, B)Washington loses a game and C)Michigan beats Ohio State giving Buckeyes two losses. Also, I give Baylor less than 5% shot of being there.
