About as much movement as expected. Utah 5, Oklahoma 6, and Baylor 7. According to the committee chair, the most vigorous debate between the committee members was where to place Oklahoma, Baylor, and Utah. Essentially Utah passes the eye test and Oklahoma has the better resume. So it looks like this committee favors the eye test, which means Utah is most likely getting in if they win and the top 3 all win their respective games. There is no way I see either Oklahoma or Baylor dominating the other. Bummer.

It may come down to style points in the championship games. If Utah struggles beating Oregon, and Oklahoma or Baylor easily wins, I could see them jumping Utah. But if both games are similar, or if Utah easily beats Oregon, I think Utah is in (assuming LSU beats Georgia, of course).

Oh, and LOL at DB'ster's prediction abilities on what the committee would do tonight.

Huh. Wouldn't that have already been Clemson?

I predict both Oklahoma and Baylor jump Utah. A prelude to Big 12 getting in over PAC 12.

Or they are hedging their bets Oregon beats Utah and that last spot will get filled by the Big 12 anyway.

It will be telling for sure tonight.

Correct, as usual.

LSU should be in even if they lose unless they lose big. They deserve it over the PAC12 or BIG12 champ even if they all have one loss.

I think we all just want to see LSU play Ohio State.

Go Duck! Go Sooners! Go Bulldogs!

No duh. LSU is in no matter what. I think there is a better argument to be made that Georgia should be left out even if they win, then that LSU should be left out if they lose. But it's still not a good argument. For all those cheering for the Utes to lose by 50 to the Dabrokster's the Ohio State the Buckeyes, we need LSU to win.

Oh, and I always get a kick when I'm reminded that Moliere is an LSU fan! LOL! Geoux Tigers!

There is absolutely zero chance the committee is going to let LSU in the playoff after losing, and not also have Georgia in the playoff. Zero chance. And there isn't even a sound argument for it. Georgia would have beaten the #2 team. While Oklahoma would have beaten the #7 team. And Utah a #13.

I think he meant after the Big 12 championship game where Oklahoma beats Baylor again. Effectively Baylor will still be a one loss team since they lost to the same team. Of course, this is all a mute point because Oregon is going to beat Utah making them a true two loss team. Enjoy your day in the sun.

I don't think you understood who was saying what.

None of this matters unless the Utes win on Friday.
