The west owned 4 of the top 5 spots in the county at one time, common sense says they are about to beat each other's asses. The comittee is smart enough to recognize that, and the fact that our two loses would have been by a combined 7. Not to mention, the way we lost the auburn game. I also think you are wrong about where auburn will be. Sure they beat us at home, but if you look at the schedule, that was our 5th conf game in a row. It was a bad loss. I also think you are overshooting the number of 1 loss teams that will be left. Tcu will lose again. Florida state is going to lose to Miami or Florida, wait and watch. Either of which is going to drop them tremendously. Arizona st has to play at Arizona. I'm more concerned with getting jumped by Baylor and teams like that.
Anyone else surprised we only moved up one spot in the playoff rankings? With 4 teams ahead of us losing, I really thought we'd move up 3 slots to 8th behind Auburn. Given were 10, does anyone REALLY think we can get in the playoff picture unless we win the SEC championship?

Yes. It can still happen. A couple of losses by other teams and a strong finish could get us there. No one is saying its gonna happen, but all hope is not lost.

I'm counting 5 losses needed in addition to us winning out:

MSU-1
Bama-1
Auburn-1
TCU-1
Oregon-1

Did I miss one?

Ga and bama this week
Beat ark next week
Beat Msu then have au win
That gets us in Atlanta
Win there and let the chips fall cause no 2 loss team has our resume or in how we lost. If a one loss team in the sec could jump an undefeated team (as many have said) then a 2 loss with our situation can jump a one loss. Ride it till it can't happen.

If Auburn wins we are out of the hunt for the west. My question is this. If State beats Bama and we win out even though we would have two loses would that throw us in the top 4? I would hope that beating the number 1 team so late in the year would give us a good shot. Just a random thought

I still believe the only chance we have is to win the SEC championship. Otherwise we would need a ton of help out of the top 7 in order to make it.

Good ole fashion luck. Coupled with sketchy officiating. The ACC wants fsu in. Florida very easily could be the stinker.

Win out and quit worrying. Even if we do win out we won't know for 4 hours after the last game if we go to Atlanta. Focus on one thing.
