If Bama doesn't win the SEC title or even play in their championship game they get in the CFP with 2 losses .. Take it to the bank. ..
FD, Even I am not crazy enough to think a 2 loss Alabama gets in over any 1 loss teams. Now if lots of teams had 2 losses they would get the nod because of the name on the jersey.
Caven If Clemson is the only undefeated conference champ outside of the SEC I believe Bama gets in with 2 losses...absolutely and I have no doubts...Bama is in unless they implode...They won't have to play in their conference championship game...It's what I believe and we'll have to wait and see how accurate I am...I can tell you they have been the sacred cows along with this conference for the last dozen years or so...To freeze out the Pac conference champ and the B1G conference champ to make room for an extra SEC team seems to be common practice unless the conference champ from the PAC is undefeated and the B1G champ is undefeated unless it is named Ohio State or Michigan...Lets see how it plays out and how right I am...Right now they are already finagling the rankings in such a way that the SEC will be able to have 2 teams in the tourney if the B1G, Big 12 or PAC falls...The PAC is already out as their champ will have at least one loss...The odds are very long that the B1G champion can run the gauntlet to be undefeated...The conference is too tough...I stand by my prediction...Those 4 teams will be in the playoff barring something unforeseen...
The only way Alabama gets in with 2 losses is if they win the SEC. they could lose to LSU and finish 11-1 and get in like they did a couple of years ago. My picks are Alabama, LSU, Clemson and Oklahoma. If Ohio st or Penn State go undefeated they will be in the Playoffs so that means the loser of the LSU/Alabama game gets left out and boy if that happens the chit will hit the fan in the south lol. I want Some chaos baby lol

You have yet to answer me... You were wrong to weeks in a row about the rankings being fixed, that SEC teams would be ranked higher, etc.
How many times would you have to be wrong before you admit the rankings aren't as rigged as you seem to think they are?
Roam...Since the CFP has been instituted...what conference is the only conference to have 2 teams representing in the CFP? 1 the SEC... We will see if I am wrong in December... I made my prediction... They have the rankings all set up. . Ohio State plays both wisky and Penn State plus have to play Michigan at the end of the season ...all of these teams have to play each other and someone gotta lose...watch and see what happens...I am predicting 2 SEC teams in the CFP again...we will see if I am right..

...and in that year the Big Ten and Pac 12 both had champions with 2 losses.
You seem to always leave that part out.
And the SEC team they put in has one loss and failed to qualify for their conference championship .. Remember the LSU VS Bama rematch for the MYTHICAL NC? Also remember the undefeated team they left out hammered Auburn who happened to have beat the team that got in the playoff instead of them...

"Hammered Auburn" Interesting way to describe a 7 point win.
Look, the system sucks. I want 8 as I've said before, which would have allowed UCF in the mix in 2017. Teams would have been:
1. Clemson v. 8. UCF
2. Oklahoma v. 7. Wisconsin
3. Georgia v. 6. Alabama
4. Ohio State v. 5. USC
Those seeds are according to the CFP rankings that year, I listed all conference champs first then seeded by rank.
They were up by about 21 pts.. .the outcome of that game was never in doubt...
FD, me and Roam don’t like this system anymore than you do.....we just deal with it lol
Until they fix or they have the B1G represented by the conference champion I will pass... It's a farce and a beauty pageant of which I will not defend and will not watch....

What the heck are you talking about?
The game was 13-6 at halftime, 20-20 at the end of the third quarter, and Auburn had the ball on the UCF 20 with :30 seconds left and threw a INT in the endzone.
At no point of the entire game was UCF up 21 points. I mean, where the heck are you getting your information from?
