Their lone win? RU beating Wazzu at Washington State. They are off to horrible start.

the final 4 will have 2 SEC teams, a big 12 and a Pac 12 team, the B1G is out of it, and it's only week 2, SMH

They're completely out of the playoff picture without outside help. Even amongst the 1-loss conference champs they're screwed. The WVU win over Turtle and ISU beating UMD are two more nails in the coffin. ECU beating VT at Blacksburg makes the OSU loss to VT look even worse.

I think FSU makes it in from the ACC. They have a ton of street cred and they'll run the table in the ACC. A 1-loss FSU conference champ beats out a 1-loss SEC team that isn't a conference champ.

B1G is the odd league out.

And that ignores the losses to MAC teams at home.

The Big 10 is disgustingly bad and it isn't getting better any time soon.

The Big 12 is already better and it won't be long until the ACC laps them. This is what happens when you combine athletics with 'culture' and research dollars: Football teams that can't find their a**es in dark rooms.

I think Ohio State and Michigan State are good teams. I thought Wisconsing looked real good till they fell apart against LSU. That said, they are all tier below playoff quality.

Yeah I forgot FSU, they get in, take an SEC team out

Bama
FSU
Oregon
Oklahoma

I will say that an SEC team with 1 loss, would get a nod over any other p4 with 1 loss

Yeah they have a couple of good teams. Some will end up with good records playing each other. The league stinks relative to it's peers and is awful to watch to boot.

I can't wait for Delany to tell us you can't judge teams on three weeks. It means it's only 7 more days until he says you can't judge based on 4.

I think Bama is the riskiest of the four. I'm keeping an eye on LSU. They have a monter, experienced OLine.

...and Ohio State got beat at home by Va Tech, who in turn just got beat at home by ECU. Of course, now that I've brought that up, ECU will be invited to the B1G before UConn... :oops:

And Purdue about to go down to ND. Purdue is a Big Ten school which is easy to forget sometimes.

But putting up more of a fight against ND than Mich did.
