Pitt - Miami game (and postgame) thread
- Thread starter blion72
- Start date
Wait, someone thinks we should be?
The only teams still possibly making the playoffs are Alabama, Miami, Clemson, Oklahoma, Wisconsin, Auburn, Georgia & Ohio State.
Explain why we'd be in the discussion? 1-2 against ranked teams--best win Northwestern. Horrible non-conference schedule though let's go Pitt so that looks better
Can pitt athletic supporters hold out for a free beverage? The opera is calling.
If Pitt wins we're a lock for the NY6 Bowl--so go Pitt (assuming we beat Maryland but if we can't beat Maryland we don't deserve it anyway)
So Bama runs the table and gets in....Clemson wins and gets in....Oklahoma loses to WVU then wins championship....OSU loses to UM then beats Wiscy....Miami is out, Oklahoma is out, Wiscy is out, Auburn is out, GA is out and OSU is out. That leaves two of your eight teams. That's why we would be in the discussion.

I wouldn’t be sure. Judging by the committee’s actions so far- if Miami loses they will drop them to around #6 or #7- still ahead of PSU.
Man is the Miami QB terrible - just shows how god awful the ACC Coastal is.
Georgia as an 11-2 with losses to Auburn & Bama would be a lock--you would need Ga Tech to beat them.
Why would 11-2 Oklahoma be out?
We would be ahead of 12-1 Wisconsin?
We'd still have no chance...for us to have a chance we need
1. Bama to win out
2. Clemson to win out
3. Miami to lose out
4. Auburn to lose to Bama (goes with Bama winning out)
5. Georgia to lose out (includes Ga Tech)
6. Wisconsin to win out
7. Oklahoma to lose out
8. Stanford to beat Notre Dame
9. Washington or Washington State to win the Pac XII--USC would jump us
I'm not even sure we get in over 10-3 Ohio State though I'd argue we should
We need it to be
1. Alabama
2. Clemson
3. Wisconsin
4. Then for us to somehow get the 4th spot which I still think it would go to USC or TCU but we'd be in the discussion
As of right now, 2:45 on 11/24...we're not in the discussion and would need chaos to even reach the discussion level
If the favorites all win tomorrow Miami probably falls to 8--one spot ahead of us. Then when Clemson beats them by 30 next weekend we'll jump them. Right now--let's go Pitt...sigh
Boy, you're feeling quite the expert. You have no idea if all those things are true, but you are not afraid to spout off as if you do. If GA gets rolled by Bama, no way they're in. If Oklahoma loses to WVU, they're out. And a one loss Wiscy would be out for the same reason you keep saying they wouldn't get in ahead of OSU, poor schedule. I realize a lot has to happen, but for you to ramble on and on like you're on the committee is ridiculous.
Explained why they're out...Georgia and Oklahoma when they have more wins then us
Wisconsin at 12-1 gets in over us at 11-1 with the same quality win(s)--Northwestern & maybe Michigan
There's no way Oklahoma is out if the lose to WVU and beat TCU--absolutely none with that Ohio State win
The fat lady is not singing just yet but she's starting to clear her throat.
Because if GA gets rolled in the SEC championship game, why would anyone want to see a rematch? Oklahoma will be out because the Big 12 is not looked at very favorable and a two loss Big 10 team would get in before a two loss Big 12 team. The committee has always given the Big 10 a lot of clout.
what is remarkable is that sPitt a 4 win bottom feeder is moving the chains on da U.
