There are two more chance contenders: Slim and None.

Cant believe this is Bama’s “best ever”. Ole Miss had them down like 29-9 near the half, before their lack of discipline and especially Qb Kelly total fallout let them cruise to a win...........

I’d take the +4 and Ohio State

So far, I have’t seen any team that Alabama wouldn’t beat pretty badly. This year, Alabama seems a cut above everyone else.

I am an Alabama fan but I don’t think they are unbeatable at all. I will say the defense is really good. The offense is nothing special.

Probably the best team in the country but I think they will still lose in the playoffs.

Lane Kiffen, Les Miles Reportedly Targeted By Houston To Replace Tom Herman

Lane Kiffen became the Alabama offensive coordinator after he was fired as head coach at USC.(Alabama beat USC 53-6 in their first game of the year)

Trojans dismiss coach Lane Kiffin

Sep 30, 2013

ESPN.com news services

LOS ANGELES -- The USC Trojans fired coach Lane Kiffin less than six hours after a blowout loss at Arizona State.

Ed Orgeron was picked as USC's interim head coach by athletic director Pat Haden later Sunday. The Trojans (3-2, 0-2 Pac-12) have eight games left on their 13-game schedule.

"I want to tell you we're here as a staff to answer the bell," Orgeron said. "We're all accountable for what happened as a staff and as players. Us Trojans know how to do it."

Orgeron was Kiffin's assistant head coach and the former Mississippi head coach.

(snip)

USC fired Orgeron Too. Orgeron just became head coach at LSU

Here is the wild wild scenario the committee could face:

If both Washington and Clemson lose in their conference championship games the committee could be squarely facing the possibility of having to put 3 Big Ten teams into the final 4 playoff spots. By their own rankings they would be the next best 3 teams left but...but...I don't think they'd have the balls to do it.

First, I admit I am a Husky. That said, if Jake Browning is on his game, I think Washington could win. This is possibly the most complete Washington team ever. Averaging 44.8 pts /game, opponents avg 17.8, and most of those points came when WA was already up by 20+. 30 takeaways v 12 giveaways on the season. We have a Heisman candidate QB, 1 RB w/over 1100 yds, and another w/over 700. 3 Receivers that would be #1 on most teams, that have combined for 35 touchdowns, and each has one over 60 yds, and a very hard hitting defense that averages 3 sacks per game and includes All American safety Budda Baker. Top that off we have the coach with the second highest career winning percentage even though he was coaching at Boise State up until 2014.

Alabama is as close to a lock as you can get in these things.

Current top 10 rankings showing their record vs other top 10 teams.

All of the loses are to Big 10 teams.

OSU lost to PSU.
Michigan lost to Iowa.
Wisconsin lost to OSU and Michigan.
PSU lost to Michigan
Oklahoma lost to OSU
Colorado lost to Michigan

The chart is actually incorrect since Michigan should also be listed as 3-1 against top 10 teams.

Ole Sis built their entire season around beating Bama, and it cost them in the rest of the season, including week 1 against FSU. Everyone wants to knock off Bama, and often the letdown after the loss causes problems for the rest of the year.
