The projections for the playoff have 2 ACC teams slotted

for invites, as it should. 3 loss BAMA, A&M, and Ole Miss have been dropped, as they should be. There is also a scenario that the ACC get 3 in with a two loss Clemson. If a two loss SEC team loses in the SEC championship, they will be a 3 loss at large. The B12 will get one this year, but like the SEC, it's the price they will pay for parity this year. Penn State will get the benefit of a soft schedule, but a one loss IU and Penn State should be included IMHO. If either one of those schools get upset, then they in all probability not get an at large, and open a spot for 3 ACC teams. Good luck for your conference, and IMHO, SMU is the better team this year - absolutely remarkable for them.

I'd put it at 10-1 odds that 2 of the 3 SEC teams you listed-

I'll take those odds Baltimore. I think you are wrong.
Big12 guy 11/25/24 04:24 PM ET
Agree, SEC is down. This should be a wide-open playoff, a lot of parity **
GoldCoast 11/25/24 08:40 AM ET
SEC is "down" but their consolidation of power is working against them this

It will be interesting to watch GaTech, they may take down GA. For...
GoldCoast 11/26/24 12:38 PM ET
I'm guessing there will be at least one three loss SEC team in.

That may be the biggest set of collective idiots on the face of the Earth

It was a sports comment, politics aren’t allowed on this board, respect

Yep on the hot seat, I doubt it takes 3 years.**

I think this will be a trend for the coaches at
Big12 guy 11/25/24 10:05 AM ET
LOL on the “perineal” spellcheck.**
Femoyer Hokie 11/25/24 02:14 PM ET
I think spell check is grate.
wwhokie1 11/26/24 11:43 AM ET
I apologize, thanks for pointing it out. **
Big12 guy 11/25/24 02:39 PM ET

Last year shows that projections are meaningless because only the final

And long before that. Remember the TCU screw job when they let Ohio State
Maroon Baboon 11/25/24 03:46 PM ET
OSU won the whole thing, but they didn't have to play TCU.**
wwhokie1 11/26/24 11:50 AM ET
And then TCU rolled #9 Ole Miss 42-3 in the bowl game**
HouClone 11/25/24 04:24 PM ET
I remain optimistic. **
Big12 guy 11/24/24 12:36 PM ET
You should be, your Jayhawks are trending up.
mancunian 11/25/24 12:24 PM ET
It would be a fun conference, but the B12 is a collection of those
Big12 guy 11/25/24 12:32 PM ET
I do hope you end up being right. It is no fun being that kid who wakes up
VTHokie2000 11/24/24 01:12 PM ET
Clemson could easily get in
SpeakToDamien 11/24/24 11:49 AM ET
Yep**
Big12 guy 11/24/24 12:11 PM ET
If they beat the Cocks, they would have earned an "at large" selection...
EDGEMAN 11/24/24 11:54 AM ET
Top teams in the sec are not that great.
SpeakToDamien 11/24/24 12:43 PM ET
Feel a B1X team will win it all this time.**
EDGEMAN 11/25/24 07:33 AM ET
