Lavalulu Posted November 17 Share Posted November 17 Is there a path where Texas can go to playoffs without having to compete for SEC championship? An intriguing thought… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfwHorn Posted November 17 Share Posted November 17 It is definitely possible, however the concern is if you lose to A&M there is a risk that you are potentially left out due to not having any statement wins, I think it’s unlikely a 10-2 Texas gets left out, however it’s by no means impossible.

cmk4pres Posted November 17 Share Posted November 17 I think it's very possible we could be left out at 10-2. if ND wins out they are in and then you have to decide between Ole Miss, Tenn, UgA and aggy. Two of which would have beaten Texas.. I can't even think about losing to aggy, gives me hives Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That game has upset potential written all over it. Go look at the stats, those teams are closer to each other than most people think. Regardless, I think we will all be Army fans this coming week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerky Posted November 17 Share Posted November 17 There are scenarios for a 10-2 Texas to either make the CFP or miss the CFP. I believe it is likely 1 or more 10-2 SEC teams won't make the CFP. A 10-2 Texas would have the same overall record as 4-6 other SEC teams. The CFP will have 3 or 4 or 5 teams from the SEC. TX, Bama, UGA, Ole Miss, aTm and TN are in contention. Two games to go. 11-1 Texas would expectedly be in the CFP even if they lost the SEC CG. Texas has only 1 path to the SEC CG. Texas must win out to go 11-1 and they are 100% in the SEC CG. If they go 10-2, Texas can't make the SEC CG based on tie-breakers from what I've read. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because ole Miss would have the two worst losses of that bunch. A bad Kentucky team and a bad lsu team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

horns96 Posted November 18 Share Posted November 18 For a bit of objectivity, I try to listen to some national folks every week. To the extent that those guys are representative of a consensus, I don't think we make the playoff with a loss to A&M. @Gerry Hamilton's sicko dream is realized - that's going to be an elimination game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harveycmd Posted November 18 Share Posted November 18 If Bama, Georgia, Ole Miss and Tennessee all go 10-2 and Texas loses to the Aggies, then I'd bet Texas is out. Tennessee probably out too in that scenario. Vols need Texas to win so the Aggies can't bump them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HookemTexas Posted November 18 Share Posted November 18 Well bama has really weak auburn and ou, Georgia has some fcs and Georgia tech. Barring a major collapse they will both finish 10-2. Bama is in the sec cg. If Texas loses to atm, Georgia has the tie breaker over Texas. Texas would lose the tiebreaker to atm when the committee looks to pick the remainders. Because the rest of Texas’ schedule has turned out to be frauds, the strength of schedule hurts. Texas needs to win out, but the plus thing is that they control their own destiny. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lavalulu Posted November 19 Author Share Posted November 19 Is Bama’s loss to Vandy considered a good loss then?? if so, then wouldn’t Texas’s loss to Georgia be considered a good loss too? Is this a situation where the CFB committee would look at resume schedules if Texas loses to ATM? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Gerry Hamilton Posted November 19 Moderators Share Posted November 19 I really think all of this comes down to USC beating Notre Dame next weekend. If ND takes a second loss, five SEC teams will get in IMO The craziest SEC scenario is now in play with Georgia beating Tennessee last weekend. Six 10-2 teams headed into SEC Championship Game if Texas A&M wins at Auburn this weekend and in CS November 30: Georgia Ole Miss Alabama Texas Texas A&M Tennessee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glass Joe Posted November 24 Share Posted November 24 6 minutes ago, Lavalulu said: Aggies playoff hopes are still alive pending next week’s game vs Texas. Aggy has to beat both Texas and UGA in successive weeks in order to make the playoffs. They can’t make it as an at-large, only as the SEC Championship game winner. This aggy team has lost its last two SEC conference games to So Carolina and Auburn. So, good luck with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I project they would have a 0.02% chance of winning out. We are around 75% to beat them next week, I would think Georgia would be around a 92% of winning.
