Would be cruel for a 12-1 Oreg/Wash to miss out.

A 13-0 Washington Doesn't even get in according to this. Ohio St and Mich will eliminate each other but lol at Fla State? Oregon or Wash would boat race them.

My prediction is that Oregon beats UW in Pac 10 Championship Game. Somehow someway Oregon gets in assuming they run the table?

This year is a very interesting case study. This would be the year to have an expanded playoff.

*Georgia - didn't look that impressive until this past week.

*Alabama - has mostly looked good except for the Texas game and the USF game where Milroe was benched.

*Oregon - I take the Joel Klatt stance that losing at Wash was not a BAD LOSS.

*Fla St - maybe hurt by some of the ACC foes not looking so good.

*Penn St - didn't look good at Ohio St. But Mich/OhioSt might be the top 2 teams (according to Sagarin).

*Not Dame - better than their 2-loss record indicates.

I may be wrong, and it really doesn't matter yet, but if Ohio State played Georgia on a neutral field right now, I think Georgia would be at least - 3

Thoughts ?????

agreed but go back to last year with TCU over Bama getting into the playoff. You have to think Vegas would have made Bama a 7 point fav or so if they played each other?

Yea, I understand vegas doesn't determine who is ranked ahead of who

I just think it's funny that somehow Ohio State is ranked ahead of Georgia right now

Like I said, it really doesn't matter right now, but it still puzzles me

strength of schedule is a factor. State beat ND on the road and took care of Penn ST at home. UGA toughest games are coming up. see what goes down.
