This has to be a huge part of their rational..........It just Sux! Totally valid observation. It would be nice however, if the committee credited Tuttle's actual win instead of hedging bets on any uncertain/unrealized/totally-projected-and-not-actual loss that he's yet to receive.

Right now, we're the last team in. Right now, there are 14 teams for 12 spots. The 15-18 teams don't play, so they're not jumping us. UNC could get to 12, but we'd be ahead of them, so it doesn't really matter. If 2 out of Northwestern, Coastal Carolina, Oklahoma, or Cincinnati lose, we're in. Any of them lose, they'll be below us. Any of them win, I think they'll be ahead of us. 2 losses from those teams, we're a lock. If 3 of those teams win, it gets more complicated. We'll need a 3 loss Florida, or a 3 loss Iowa State to drop below us. If all 4 of those teams win, we'll need a 3 loss Florida, and a 3 loss Iowa State to both drop below us. I don't have a lot of faith in that happening after tonight's rankings. Excellent analysis. I really can't see Northwestern hanging with OSU so I think we are good there. I guess I am with with @btownqbin rooting for Iowa State to beat up Oklahoma because I don't trust the committee to drop Iowa St below us after the Florida situation. I really would love to see Bama kick the sh*& out of Florida after this ranking fiasco. I would feel better if Coastal Carolina lost to Troy in that tight game...hoping they lose this week or I think they could jump us. Bottom line: This committee is a joke. GO Tulsa, Iowa St, Bama, Lousiana, and O$U. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember, after Penix went down, #12 IU at #16 Wisconsin was full of uncertainty and odds makers had Wisky -13. We really need another game to show them we are legit.

GO Tulsa, Iowa St, Bama, Lousiana, and O$U. I can't imagine Northwestern winning either. OSU has known for a while that they would likely be playing Northwestern, so they've had a lot of time to prepare. If OSU wins, this is what has to happen to keep us out of an NY6 bowl. Keep in mind, all of these things would have to happen. Coastal Carolina beat Louisiana and jump us in the rankings. Cincinnati beat Tulsa. Oklahoma beat Iowa State, and Iowa State not fall below us. Florida beat Alabama, or lose to Alabama and not fall below us. I would recommend placing a parlay bet on all of those things happening. If all of those happen, you'd probably get a good chunk of money to drown your sorrows in us missing out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

btownqb Posted December 16, 2020 Report Share Posted December 16, 2020 The BCS never really bothered me... the fact that there wasn't a playoff is what bothered me.

FritzIam4IU Posted December 16, 2020 Report Share Posted December 16, 2020 Jerry Palm dropped IU from the NY6 Fiesta bowl vs USC and now has Hoosiers playing vs Auburn in Citrus bowl. He actually has North Carolina in Orange bowl vs Texas A&M which seems crazy to me.

He's going by the idea that the Orange Bowl takes an ACC team. Once an ACC team is in the playoff, they don't have to do that anymore. They can't take an ACC team that is ranked 15th and leave out the 11th ranked team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosierfan1215 Posted December 20, 2020 Report Share Posted December 20, 2020 I just think it’s a sham there are gonna be 2 3 loss teams in front of us. And then they have to take NC because of the acc tie in. I just could never fathom this happening to another team if it happens. 3 loss Iowa state? Come on. The lack of respect for us is unreal.

5fouls Posted December 20, 2020 Report Share Posted December 20, 2020 Here are the committee members. If there is any question about the love for 3 loss Florida, this answers it. , And, the love for Iowa State was intentional as well because it helped make Oklahoma look better.
