@psu61 I think Ohio State gets in over Cincinnati but I don’t think Penn State will. I’m predicting Georgia, Alabama, Oklahoma and ohio St, Penn St or Cincinnati. Of course all this can change if a team loses this is just what I’m looking at today. If Clifford come back I believe we’ll win out if he’s a 100%
The only way Georgia and Alabama both get in is if Bama beats an undefeated Georgia in the SEC Championship in a close game.
@southern-psu-fan A historic day....first time I ever agreed with your top 5,...and in exact order..Oklahoma is a different team with Caleb Williams at QB...Bama is very much in picture, and I think both of us remain skeptical of Cincinnati....Be interesting to see if pollsters elevate them to no. 2..and to add to the historic day...Urban got a NFL win...

Explain your logic please. I really need to hear this.
@navylion Alabama beats Georgia in a close game in the SEC championship game. Oklahoma goes undefeated so imo that’s 3 that’s in and Cincinnati will compete to get in over the big 10 champ. Hope I explained it right brother this is just the way I see things shaping out. If Alabama beats Georgia in the SEC championship game both team will have a loss and the SEC will get 2 teams in.
@southern-psu-fan You explained everything except your theory on why OSU gets in over Cinncy but PSU wouldn't. And please don't tell me your BS ridiculous Big 10 ESPN committee asinine conspiracy theory!!! PLEASE have some legitimate rational reasoning behind your prediction, PLEASE!!!!!!!!
@navylion just my opinion but I believe Iowa will lose another game maybe 2 more games so Penn States loss will look bad which it is imo and the committee will take Cincinnati over Penn State. If Ohio State wins out I just don’t see the committee leaving them out.
@southern-psu-fan So your telling me that PSU losing to what was the #3 ranked team when they played them by 3 points but running through what is right now as the the #5 #6 #7 and #22 teams in the country as well as beating last years MAC champ and winning the Big ship.
That they would put Cinncy who only played 1 ranked team #9 ND and their only other signature win is over Indiana 38-24 who PSU shut out 24-0 and the only other ranked team currently on their schedule is #23 SMU would get put in over PSU?.
You really believe that??
@navylion if you watch all the so called expert’s they are talking Cincinnati up. I would never take Cincinnati you know that, I’m just giving you my opinion on what the committee will do. I would love to see Cincinnati make the playoffs just to show what happens when you send these teams that don’t belong in a power 5 conference to the playoffs because I believe they will get drilled. You can tell the sports media wants to see Cincinnati if they finish the regular season unbeaten. That’s just the vibe I’m gettin anyway
A 1 loss OSU or PSU is not getting left out ahead of the loser of the SEC championship. Not going to happen.
@roaminglion you believe if Penn State wins the big 10 and Alabama beats Georgia in a very close game they’ll leave Georgia out? I don’t, I believe Ohio St has a better chance gettin in than Penn St. it will be Cincinnati gettin left out before Georgia if what I said happens

I didn't say that, I said PSU or OSU wouldn't be left out. They might leave someone else out, but not us.
And yes, if it came down to Georgia or OSU/PSU... Georgia is out. No way they would leave out a 1 loss team that won the Big Ten East, which currently has 4 top 10 teams in it. I don't care what you think about the SEC, that is not going to happen.
If a 1 loss power 5 conference champ gets in over a 1 loss non champ that is a crime and further emphasizes how screwed up this whole thing is...Alabama gets beat by a team outside the top 25 and is ranked 4th over teams that are unbeaten in a better conference...I am no fan of Michigan or Harbaugh but until somebody beats them they deserve to be ranked in the top 5...Same goes for Oklahoma...Or Oklahoma State for that matter...Finebaum says Alabama beat up on a good Mississippi State team...That is the nonsense and the narrative that I am talking about...Mississippi State got beat by Memphis State and the SEC refs couldn't even fix that game for em...The whole thing is a joke...YES if Cincy goes unbeaten they deserve to be in...PERIOD...A one loss or undefeated B1G champ deserves to be in...PERIOD...an undefeated or 1 loss PAC 12 conference champion deserves to be in...PERIOD...Whoever wins the SEC conference championship should be in...PERIOD...Everybody else is OUT...end of story...Right now Georgia, Cincy, Michigan, Michigan State, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State are all unbeaten...I would argue Penn State, Ohio State, Oregon should all be ranked higher than Alabama...They lost but their losses were to better teams than A&M...If anybody should get 2 teams in it should be the B1G as they have the toughest conference in the country...I honestly wouldn't be shocked if Bama didn't lose another game or maybe 2...I don't think they are that good this year...Their is a lot of football left to play and this will all sort itself out but the idea that the SEC automatically gets 2 1 loss teams in the playoff is absurd to me...Why not 2 B1G teams with 1 loss? They have the best conference this year?
@roaminglion I could care less about the SEC I’m going on by what I’ve watched the last 5 or 6 years. I just believe if Georgia is ranked #1 and Alabama is ranked #4 and Alabama wins I don’t believe they’d drop Georgia past #4 if Georgia loses a very close game.

They have never done it, so I don't know what you've seen in the past 5-6 years that shows you they would do it.
Well Bama being ranked 4 is a joke and I don't think the SEC is all that good this year...Every team that left the conference to play got whacked...Georgia beat a mediocre at best Clemson team...The past 5 or 6 years don't matter...This is college football...The players leave after 4 years at the most...THIS YEAR the B1G is the best conference in the country...If Georgia or Bama played in the B1G they would have 2 or 3 losses before the year was out...This whole system is a joke...Mississippi State is a very good football team...Ok Finebaum whatever you say brother...LOL

Finebaum doesn't matter... no one voting basing their opinion on him.
They won't put two SEC teams in over a 1 loss PSU or OSU Big Champ. Period.
@roaminglion that’s your opinion because you don’t know what they’ll do the one thing I do know for a fact is we’ve seen the big 10 champs sit at home and watch the playoffs 2 times the last five years. The committee says they want the 4 best teams in the country and I agree with that but the problem is they’re taking the 4 best teams with the best record not necessarily the 4 best teams and I got proof, we were clearly the best team in the big 10 in 2016 we won the big 10 and beat Ohio State on the field but because we had 2 losses they wanted Ohio St instead of Penn St. it’s not about the best 4 team, it’s about who has the best record. They knew Ohio St wasn’t better than Penn St because they knew we beat ‘em and they knew we got better they just didn’t want a 2 loss team in the playoffs..period
I don’t see Cincinnati losing a game by looking at their schedule. Roam thinks Cincinnati is in if they finish the regular season undefeated and win their conference championship game let’s say he’s right and he might be so if Alabama beats Georgia in a dawg fight in the SEC championship game and they do leave Georgia out drop them to 5th and put Cincinnati in, does anybody here really believe Cincinnati could beat Georgia? I don’t think so I believe Georgia would destroy Cincinnati so by taking Cincinnati that tells you it ain’t about the 4 best teams because we all know Georgia is a top 4 team. Even if Georgia beats Alabama does anybody here think Cincinnati is really better than the Tide? No way, and if Penn St beats Ohio st Cincinnati ain’t better than Ohio St with 2 losses either, they just ain’t.
You know what Southern, I could care less if Cincy makes it in or not. They beat a Ranked ND team on the road and we need to beat a ranked Ohio State team on the road. We already lost to a NOT SO GOOD Iowa team on the road, so as far as I am concerned, Ciny is more deserving than us (today).
Yes, I think Cincy would give Georgia a better game than Kentucky, Auburn, Clemson and Arkansas ( 4 top 10 teams who now have 8 losses combined between them)!
GO STATE!
