Playoffs 2018

I'm not convinced UGA makes the SECCG. They are about to play @LSU, Florida, @Kentucky, and Auburn in consecutive games. They're not going to win all 4, and even 3-1 could mean losing the East if they lose the wrong game. Florida only has 1 SEC loss, and their remaining SEC games are against USCe, Vandy, and Missouri. Beat UGA and they probably win the East. Kentucky also has 1 loss and only has Vandy, Tennessee, and Missouri, so they could end up 7-1 as well if they beat UGA.

Deus Vult!
 
Notre Dame hasn’t won anything in 30 years. They are a relic of a program. If they make the playoffs and play Bama again they will get slaughtered just like last time.

Georgia will be heavily favored in all their remaining games. The most likely scenario is they reach the SECCG undefeated in the regular season. Even if they lost a close game to Alabama they would have a case to be in the final four. The weakness of the ACC bumps Clempsen. So you have Alabama, Ohio State, Notre Dame, and who's left?

Clemson wont be left out if they take care of business. Their preseason ranking was high enough that a weak ACC wont hurt them if they just keep winning.
 
The field will quickly increase to 6 or 8 after someone gets snubbed this year
 
Hope n.d. somehow gets the shaft. Maybe usc can nail them.

ugag has strong qb play, their D ppg is good, but people said they lost too many lettermen.

WVU could be the kink in the works. I assume they play Texas yet?

Hope CU doesn’t trip up. But weak ACC could hurt them.

Got to bet, as of now, bama vs. osu.

They play Texas, OU and Okst. They havent played anyone tough in Big12 yet. There wont be a Big12 team in the playoffs but boy are those games fun to watch.

So you see both c.u. & ugag losing at least once? Coz Texas already lost to umd. And ucf might still need a Lot of things to fall into place to get in.

Could be interesting.

Just hope ugag is no where near the CFP.

I do see lots of opportunity for both teams to pick up losses. Up to 3 within reason, if the chaos is particularly strong. Clemson has NCST next, a game against FSU where unlimited craziness seems to happen, and their end of regular season contest with SCar. That, and whoever comes out of the coastal could conceivably put together a game against them. They are not unbeatable, and if there's one of the top 4 right now that I'd say is least likely to make the playoffs, it's them.

UGAg has still got Kentucky, LSU, and Auburn on deck, and while none of them are world beaters, they are three good defenses that UGAg shouldn't be able to out-athlete so severely, which is what they are basically doing for offense in all their games right now. UF could potentially give them trouble as well, that series is always wild.

Then, for both of those teams, we could eliminate either one from the playoff immediately, if somehow we get 2014 hot and win the Coastal.

I think a single loss anywhere takes ND out of the playoff and lets Texas in with a strong finish (which takes out WV, potentially handing them two losses to the horns because of the B12 championship game format). I don't think Washington makes it through the rest of its schedule without picking up at least one more loss.

Then the fourth slot is between ND, Penn State, and UCF. Both ND and Penn State will need to pick up 2 or 3 losses to lose that contest. That would be exceptional chaos.

But I'm a dreamer.

If uga only loses to Florida and Florida wins the east, uga will be in the playoffs. They basically need to lose in the seccg. Ideally they lose out.

Not necessarily. I'm not sure a 1 loss UGA gets in over 1 loss conference champion Alabama, Ohio State, or even Clemson/Texas/Oklahoma/West Virginia. Plus Notre Dame could still win out.

The mutts are in only if Tua gets hurt and they beat Bammer in the $ECCG.

Or as Dirty Jacket alluded to:

The mutts win out big except UF. UF wins out big however, only beat the mutts by a hail mary in a game that is close for all 60 minutes. This allows Bammer to beat UF in the $ECCG and since Bammer got in last year without winning their division, it would be the mutts' turn this year. Bammer v. tOSU / mutts v. Clempson. Since fuckery is The Committee's MO, they could not resist setting up the possible rematch.

Either way, doesn't matter - the mutts are going to loose their last regular season game so their stock will be going down.

THWG!
