Our DBs catch like Browns receivers... What was that?
WE DON'T NEED A QB BEFORE WE GET A LINE THAT CAN PROTECT HIM
my two cents...

I thought USC was in the Rose Bowl. . . I gotta believe it's Clemson, Georgia, Oklahoma, and Alabama.

if alabama would've beat auburn and lossed to Georgia in this conference game, they would've still got in at #4.

They could spin the Clemson/Alabama semifinal into a championship rematch.

31 point loss to Iowa and 15 point home loss to OK kill the Buckeyes I think.

this will breed talk to expand to 8 teams ... it's not nearly as tough to leave a TCU out than it is an OSU/Alabama out
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Jeudy is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Tillman is flanked out wide to the right. Judkins and Ford are split in the backfield as Flacco takes the snap ... Here we go."

having said that, my gut says:
1. Clemson
2. Oklahoma
3. Georgia
4. Alabama

We will find out around noon. It will be interesting to see how it plays out. I have read the comments about this team being in or that team being in, and all of them make some sense.
It would make this whole thing much cleaner if they figured out a way to make it 8 teams. Play next week or week after to get down to 4, New Years day down to 2 teams, bingo bamo.
If everybody had like minds, we would never learn. GM Strong ![[Linked Image]](http://www.dawgtalkers.net/uploads/small-gator-chomp.gif)

Good game. We should have blown them out, but turned it over way too much.
Time to get ready for Clemson. Hope we do better than we did last year.

If the Buckeyes don't get in over Bama it's time for teams to start loading up on cupcakes because strength of schedule will mean nothing in the playoff era.

I am fairly confident that Ohio State will get in. Their resume matches the Committees criteria much more than Alabama's does. Does anyone know if the selections will be announced at noon and the guys on ESPN will talk about them for 4 hours or will they talk about it for 4 hours and then announce them at 4:00?
