    The 4 teams will be conference winners this year. Can't see how Bama gets in with their weak schedule. Georgia, Oregon, Utah, Oklahoma, Baylor, Minnesota all these teams have to lose for Alabama to even have a chance.

    Bama is not the same team without Tua. They are not a playoff team this year. Bama loses a close one to a bad Auburn team in a few weeks

    You haven't been watching Bama this year. Or the past two years if you think the defense is what makes Bama so good.

    I know they gave up 46 points to LSU at home but that was just 1 bad game.

    Everybody has an off week.

    If Bama doesn’t make it who do you replace them with?

    Oklahoma has 2 losses now.

    Mac Jones will look all-world... a big part of Tua's success is having legit 1st round NFL WR's, RB's, and OL around him. Alabama still has zero chance of making the playoffs even if they win out.

    Penn State has zero chance winning in Columbus. The books are begging bettors to take the +19.

    if justin fields gets hurts they can beat ohio state. so it's more than a Zero chance but i get what you're saying. if healthy, ohio state runs penn state off the field.

    This!

    Bama needs LSU to win out. OSU and Clemson winning out would also be helpful. A really good, decisive win over Auburn would be helpful as Oregon lost to them.


    Bama's defense is good. Just not as good as they have been in previous years. But 6 of the 11 starters are FR. And depending on Davis' ankle and Dale's knee...could be more before it's all said and done. In 2 years, this defense may be downright nasty! In a good way.

    Alabama and Auburn really have a couple dangerous opponents this week-- they should be penalized for playing these teams --

    No. Then after a few years ppl would want 16.

    With a 4 teamer, the bowls are still relevant and big money makers. With an 8 teamer, the bowls are out and the college presidents wont be happy.

    At most you'll see another 2 teams. A 6 teamer. Top 2 teams get a bye, other 4 teams play it off to see who faces 1 and 2

    Not a good idea. You could end up with 3 teams from the same conference. SEC would have LSU, Georgia, Alabama if there was an 8 team playoff this year. Then these teams would be playing each other twice in the same season if they make it to championship game.

    and not a good idea to make it the 5 conference champions mandatory either, because one or more of them could have 2 losses and not be deserving of entry. conferences have down years so not every conf champ is worthy every year.

    In general... Nothing wrong with 3 teams from same conference if really and truly looking for the best team

    Bear

    why do you think Sammy put "In general..." as the lead in ?

    also... was in context of an EIGHT (8) team playoff
