Sorry man, I just have never lived in a world where Georgia Tech football gets a break.
You tell me which 4 get picked:
Alabama
Ohio State OR Michigan State
Baylor OR TCU
USC OR Oregon
Georgia Tech
If you think a 12-1 Tech team gets in over a 12-1 Oregon team, then there's no reason to continue this. Actually, there is no reason to continue this. Agree to disagree.
The scenario is assuming we're 12-1, right? Can you imagine the odds that we're 12-1 and four of those teams from four different conferences have 0 or 1 loss?
And anyway, the "ACC" debate is out the door when you play two top 10 teams out of conference. If we finish 12-1 we'll have on of the better resumes in the country and likely be in the playoff. The odds that all four other conferences have 0/1 loss teams with better resumes is just remote.
We'd have to end up with 3-5 wins over Top 10 teams. We're not going to get passed up for TCU or Baylor who played 2 ranked teams all year. Hell, unless OSU demolishes everybody I could see them slipping for the same reason FSU did last year. Played nobody.
***Disclaimer***
I'm sticking with my prediction of 9-3 for us still. I think we're a really good team but not strong enough along the DL to avoid dropping a couple when the offense is having a slow day. Just fun to talk about hypothetical scenarios.
