Frankly I think TCU and Baylor should be out (can't win your conference but you should play for the natty). That would bring great relevence to the reg i lar season and the committee could send a strong message.

So for me the participants would be the SEC champ (Bama), PAC champ(AZ or Oregon), Florida St as a 4 seed due to a weak conference and Ohio St or Baylor, flip a coin but I would take Baylor due to there win over TCU (OSU has a bad loss at home)

49, good stuff,

I know deep down inside in my heart of hearts that even if we did manage to beat the Ducks for a second time this year we would still likely be left out in the cold.

But our resume is very impressive to say the least and the PAC 12 South is rightfully considered the best top to bottom group of teams in the nation.

If we do beat Oregon in the championship game we would be.

PAC 12 Conference Champions at (11-2) and a top 8-10 national ranking.
Wins over top 25 teams:
@ #2 Oregon
#2 Oregon Again (Neutral Site)
#13 ASSU
@ #17 Utah

And two losses and 9 points away from being undefeated at the hands of two other top 25 ranked teams at that time.

Everyone might as well get ready now for the talking heads, prognosticators and game broadcasters biases. It will be so thick you will be able to cut it with a knife. You know everyone is going to be all over Oregon’s jock. The Cats won’t get an ounce of respect leading up to the game or even game day itself. It will be Oregon, Oregon and more Oregon. I actually think that plays in our favor……………..still no one believes in the Cats for the most part.

Its just rinse and repeat over and over. I hope the team takes it to heart. I can’t even imagine what it will be like if we do beat Oregon again, but I do know that the BS excuses that’s been run all year by the rationalizing media and talking heads concerning our winning would come to an abrupt and quick thud of silence.

You know the talking heads will only talk about the Hill Mary and how Washington should have taken a knee to run out the clock for the win.

That's the problem.

Yeah, they might get left out. Would be very interesting to see because ESPN and the SEC honks would lose their minds.

They can't use that because all of FSU wins are games they could've lost. If bama losses and we beat a then #1 ducks #2 ducks and a ranked assu and Utah. That should be enough to get the 4 spot.

Really weird rooting for all favorites today - usually I root for the underdogs.
