ESPN will marshal all the forces of darkness to argue for Bama over 1-loss TCU.
That interception in the end zone was not optimal for TCU.
Oooooo… TCU in what I believe the technical term is “deep shit.”
Goddamn it, do we have to start talking about OSU and Bama?

Unfortunately, yes. I think along with the USC loss, a TCU loss locks OSU in. This is a nightmare for the committee. Frankly, Tennessee should have a better shot than Bama, since they won head to head and have a higher strength of schedule. There are going to be a lot of teams very unhappy when this all sorts out. Especially if LSU manages the upset vs Georgia.

Another interesting thing. If Michigan and Georgia both win, its likely that their rankings will stay the same. That would probably put OSU into the 3 spot and they would play Michigan once again for the right to play in the championship game.

Unlike TCU I think Georgia stays in even with a loss to LSU.

I do as well. But beating Georgia and winning the SEC championship game would put LSU back in the conversation for that final spot. Although its highly unlikely that they would sneak in over Tennessee who thumped them. The more likely result would be that Tennessee would sneak past Bama for the 4th spot. Like I said, its nightmare scenario for the committee.

I would love to see the committee just give the 4 spots to the highest rated championship game winners, regardless of who that is.

Well, well. TCU aint dead yet!
Now they are.
That was one helliuva game.
So now I’m pulling for LSU and Purdue.

TCU will be rooting for Georgia to destroy LSU.

LSU isn’t making it. TCU has one loss in OT to a top 10 team. They’re fine.
With USC losing big TCU should be in pretty easily. Would have been nice if the spots of the ball in OT were better. Sure looked like the ball crossed the line on that 3rd down. And Duggan’s run before that was on the 1” line not the 2’ line. Still, fun game and Duggan’s runs in the last quarter we’re amazing.

No, but LSU getting blown out will make Alabama’s loss look worse.

Trouble with that view was you couldn’t tell if knee was down.
Oh true. But it didn’t appear the refs even looked. And the tv crew had enough time to at least show a side view or mention that a side view was too obstructed to tell. It was like, “yeah, we all think the ball crossed the line but we’re not gonna even explain why we won’t try to confirm it with a better angle.”
Hahahaha! LSU ran off the field! That was awesome and the shot showed the Georgia dude just waiting til enough LSU players to get out of the way before pill king it ups and running. That was great!
