Lets see where the BIG boys stand in getting 3-4-5 teams into the playoffs
B10
OSU/ORE lets say they win all but the game they play each other
11-1/12-0
Rutg done though they avoid all the good teams and could run the table
Mich done
Iowa done
PSU still a shot at 11-1
Wisc needs to beat PSU to get to 10-2
USC done
Chance at 3 teams but also a chance they all end up with 3 losses but the top 2
SEC
Let Tex run the table 12-0
Ala 11-1
GA at best 10-2
LSU at best 10-2
Ole Miss at best 10-2
Mizzu at best 10-2
Ok done
Tenn 9-3 done
TAM at best 10-2
They still have a shot at 6 teams 10-2 or better, but where can it go wrong
Mizzu loses to Ala and USC but beat TAM 9-3
LSU loses to AL/OK 9-3
TAM loses to LSU and tex 9-3
Ga loses to Tex and GT 9-3
Ole Miss loses to OU and GA 9-3
Mizzu loses to OU/Ala 9-3
Ok already 9-3
Tenn 9-3 Done
Imagine if Ala loses 1 and Auburn wins the iron Bowl
You could end up with Tex 12-0 and all 3 loss teams
