No one has to make too hard of a case to claim that AL is at least one of the top four teams in the country, even with a loss today.
Correct.

You are right but I’m hoping for a Bama-free CFP.
Yes, Bama is a lock regardless. They are clearly vulnerable but there is zero question they are among the 4 best. Georgia is a lock if they beat them. The field will be set and OU/OSU both get left out regardless.
I disagree if Bama loses by 21+
Big Ten, Pac-12 and Big Twelve possibly all left out if Georgia hangs on and Clemson takes care of business. I don't think that's what the commissioners had in mind when they set this up. Look for the calls for an 8 team playoff to grow.

I want GA to win as much as anyone. But there is A LOT of time left in this game. Anyone counting AL out at this point does so at their own risk.
They’ll be tied with OU/OSU with 1 loss and they will still get the botd since they haven’t beat a team by less than 22 points up to this point.
If UGA wins, what’s the seeding? I can’t imagine, the committee would make a semi final rematch between these two. I’d say 1 Clemson, 2 ND, 3 Georgia, 4 Bama
Georgia would jump to 2.
I could see that. Either way, in that scenario it’s gotta be Clemson/Bama and ND/Georgia
sounds about right
#3 or #2 - depending on if Bama was put at #3 or #4. Only because they wouldn't put UGA against Bama as a semi-final.
Which sucks for Clemson to get Bama in the Semis and great for UGA. I feel like ND is one of those “most deserving” not necessarily “best”.
Duff is saying Clemson, UGA, ND, Bama which would match up Clemson/Bama and ND/UGA
See my edit.
If I was ranking teams strictly in order of how good I think they are I'd put ND no better than 7th or 8th.
I agree. But you have to put a team that plays a P5 schedule into the playoff if it goes undefeated.
Don't disagree. Like Schekler said, they're deserving but clearly not one of the 4 best.
Albrights CFB takes need to die. He is a great follow for NFL info, but he is such a simpleton when it comes to college. This is in reference to UCF, which he believes should be #4

Or, that ND is left out because they chose not to challenge themselves with a 13th game... but I would be all for leaving them out
Generic takes like this are just dumb. The selection of the 4 playoff teams is not cut and dried by any means, that's what makes it so great.
