    Georgia, Michigan, Alabama, Cincinnati

    Cinci and bama lose...

    Georgia
    Michigan
    Big 12 winner
    ND

    It would be quite strange for a playoff team to have an interim

    I think Okie ST will be 4. If Bama wins SEC then Both Bama and UGA are in.

    Here's my go at it:


    Bama loses SECCG - Bama is out and UGA in
    Michigan Wins and is in
    Cincy Wins and is in
    OK State loses and is out
    ND is in
    Option 1 => Fickell goes to ND and coaches them against Cincy in 1st round.

    Option 2 => Fickell coaches Cincy against UGA in 1st round and loses
    ND beats Michigan so Fickell goes to ND and "coaches" in championship game where he loses to UGA.

    Fickell becomes the first coach to both coach and lose with 2 teams in the same CFP.

    Same way Cincinnati has while struggling with half their pitiful schedule.

    Just looked at their schedule, and the only game they struggled in was a 7-point win over Navy. Their schedule is definitely pretty weak, but they won all of them, one of which was Notre Dame. Bama struggled in at least 3 games that they wound up winning (LSU, Florida, and Auburn). It's going to be interesting to see how Cincinnati does, assuming they get past Houston.

    Then you didn't watch them. They struggled for much of several games before pulling away, while playing absolutely nobody.

    Cinci does have a pretty good RB, transfer J Ford from Bammer...

    Truth of the matter as far as I'm concerned, I ain't counting Bama and Saban out, they just find ways to win. It's such a strange football season. No doubt things are evening out.

    I'll say it again, if it's close, Bama wins because of the zebras. The SEC wants 2 teams in and UGA has to blow them out or it's gonna happen.

    IF, and that's a huge IF Bammer can keep Bryce Young from gettin' murdered they've got a great chance of pulling it out...

    Good thing Young got the NIL thing, he could get his career ended Saturday. Bama's OL is their weak link.

    I believe Houston will handle Cincinnati on Saturday. Now with the Fickle to ND talk I believe that even more. Keep in mind this is a Cincinnati team that struggled with Tulane. Cincinnati was a 27.5 pt favorite, won by 19 but was only up 2 at halftime and 9 at the end of 3. Tulane had 4 turnovers in that game. Without the turnovers Cincinnati may not win that game.
