Ridiculous scenario

[skurey]

Do we get in the playoffs if we win out and the following teams are undefeated

Alabama
Oklahoma
USC
Penn State

I'm guessing no even though we'd have the best wins. Gotta start rooting for those guys to drop one so we can sneak in.

Even Alabama and OSU have made it in with an early season loss. Everything's possible!

 

[CuseCactus]

Well, we have beaten FSU, LSU, Miami, Clemson, Louisville and then VaTech in the ACC playoffs. We'd have a good story! ;-)

Watch out for Wake Forest. They're 3-0.

Orange.

Kratom anyone?

If we win out there should be Dino statue built right away, I will build it myself.

Thanks, but I hear the guy who did this is available

If we win out I will personally fund a life-sized Dino butter sculpture at next year's NYSF. I'm 100% serious.

 

[Alsacs]

No. Unless the PAC-12 champ has 2 losses.

If we beat Florida State, Miami, LSU, Clemson, Louisville all on the road except Clemson then we need 1 conference champion to have 2 losses.

Later productivity this week thinking about this absurd possibility

The problem for Alabama is that the NFL may move them into the NFC East. This assumes LSU does not beat the daylights out of them on their post-SU-loss revenge tour.
The problem for Oklahoma is that they beat tOSU early (Pope Urban wasn't ready, we'll give him some slack); they play Okie-Dokie-State (which is only a rivalry because teh State of Oklahoma wants it to be a rivalry, but let's ignore the W/L record here), and the rest of the Big 12.
The problem for USC is that they play the PAC 12 which is overrated more than the Big 10. The Stanford win was nice but USC should beat Stanford on principle alone; Texas is not respectable at this time (not sure they will be); and did I mention they play in the PAC 12, where even if teams are good, nobody knows because the games are on after everyone goes to bed! Oh, and let's not forget that the NCAA will obliterate them if they win anything by taking away wins and trophies for allegations of wrong doing; despite many schools repeating the same actions but being completely excused for said wrongdoings (See Bush/Newton outcomes for comparison).
The problem for PedState is they play in the B1G. Sure they have a nice record and fancy stats, but they play nobody until game 7! Six body bag and tune up games before getting to the meat of the schedule: Weeks 7 (UM) & 8 (tOSU) and then get a dessert of a schedule for the last four games.

So, yeah, we got a chance.
