UCF killing Okie State was shocking, even with the four TO's. What a letdown game, and it adds to the confusion of the Big 12 CG situation.
I think we still need help to get in:
1. If TX wins out, there will be complaining if we jump them, but we would have a win over GA as evidence. They would have a head-to-head advantage and a single loss. The Big 12 CG is looking poor from a SOS standpoint, but if OK were to back into it, TX would avenge their sole loss.
2. FL State is a pretender, but they have the easiest path to be undefeated. I don't see UNA, FL or a Louisville/UNC CG getting them.
3. Michigan/OSU winner is in, absent something completely unexpected. The other will complain bitterly about being left out.
4. Washington wins out they are in, period. Best case for us is for Oregon to make the championship game, beat Washington, leaving them both with losses. Bama would likely be rated ahead of Oregon in the final machinations following a win over GA.
5. Where do you put GA with just one loss? Bama would own the head-to-head and CC, but the same would apply - to our detriment - with TX.
