row_33 Posted November 10, 2019 Posted November 10, 2019 Bama with one loss and no SEC title game will be #1 on the wild card list to get in it should come to that Quote

Expand They can't even win the SEC and they don't have a strong schedule (SEC overall is having a down year). I think it's unlikely, but nothing's impossible. The team that's interesting is Minnesota (in my opinion). They're way down in the rankings (17 last week) but just beat #4 and they face ranked opponents (Iowa, Wisky) in two of their last three (before a B10 championship matchup). They'll probably move up to #10 or so this week, but over the next three weeks could put themselves in the playoff picture. Quote

My point is that this should be enough to get them in the picture, which makes them an interesting team to watch. Quote
row_33 Posted November 11, 2019 Posted November 11, 2019 eball, you are looking backwards, the game is forward driving, Minnesota is in the Big Ten (yes i know it's possible many fans did not KNOW this until last week) the rankings mean jack squat except for Notre Dame and mid-majors (like Boise a few years ago) to see if they get the love from the media to make a serious playoff push the game is about 0 or 1 losses and winning a big conference championship game then they have the no-brainer selections and maybe 1 or 2 interesting decisions for the Final Four of Football what would be more valuable to a big-$$$ non-playoff Bowl committee.... a 3-loss Michigan or Minnesota....

Don't even try to convince yourself otherwise. If they lose a second game.....and I think they have Middle Tennessee State coming up.....they might not make it. With one loss, there are excuses aplenty. Quote
