We had to beat the sips and didnt.

Now we will have it as rough as possible

"Rough as possible" would have meant a 9-seed road game against OU then a matchup with OSU.

A 7-seed home game against a bama team that can't run with a matchup against, probably IU or UGA isn't that bad.

---

I feel like I've heard this somewhere before....

Shaping up to be an ugly end to the best season in 30 years.

Hope we don't have to wait until 2055 for another shot

---

it's kind of shades of the 1975 season fifty years ago

start 10-0...finish 10-2...and ranked outside the top 10 in the end

You seem to think that we wouldn't potentially drop down from here.

What would cause the Ags to drop to #9? Which two 2-loss teams will bump the Ags out? OU? ND? Miami?

Make your case and back it up with data, please.

---

Read the other #7 thread. Also, the idiotic ESPN talking heads said a bama win would push them above us. You can't deny that this is a definite possibility. Add in a tech loss and BYU could jump us. The committee guy also said that idle teams can move up or down this week, but does anyone believe that going up would be an option for us? He clearly opened the door for the winners below us jumping idle teams after this weekend.

Just because it shouldn't happen doesnt mean that it couldn't (or won't) happen.

Can you show me an SOS/SOR/top-40 wins comparison of A&M and BYU, please?

How did Alabama move up one spot past Notre Dame, after Alabama struggled with awful Auburn? So rigged.

---

If Alabama loses the SECCG, I think they will move to 10

---

Alabama won't be punished for playing an extra game vs a top-ranked team.

and a real kick in the teeth would be...

Alabama wins

BYU wins

Tech drops to #8....A&M to #9

and off to Lubbock

You honestly think that those numbers mean anything at this point (BYU would have beat #4 tech, so does that count?)? And I'm not making these decisions. People who need reasons to move teams to where they want them to be do. We opened the door for them to put us wherever they want. This weekend will allow for further adjustments if needed.

It's all about matchups at this point. Once the field is decided this weekend, the order will be determined by matchups.

Exactly. Anything is possible at this point, and none of the possibilities involve us moving up, but there are more than a couple that could move us down.

Did you read the question I responded to? On paper, there is a glaring mismatch between the bama run O and the Aggie run D. Matching the Ags with bama is not a "rough as possible scenario ".

Wow. You're a piece of work. Get your head out of the sand instead of throwing insults.

I feel like the committee moved Bama to 9 so that if they lose to UGA they just flip Notre Dame and Bama 9/10 so they can keep the narrative that making and losing the conference championship won't hurt you as much. They also keep two huge markets in Notre Dame and Bama in the playoff.

But there's always a scenario where BYU wins then one of Bama and Notre Dame would have to be kicked out. As BYU would be automatically in along with two other conference champions

Clearly objective metrics are being used when it gets the desired matchups and ignored when it might get in the way.

If the committee followed their own methodology, tech should fall out of the top 8 with 2 losses and BYU would move up. Bama would bump the Ags to 8.

OU and ND would be the big losers in this case with ND getting bumped out and OU moving to 9, (or probably lower), IMO.

Bunk Moreland said:

Yall seem to think the committee is interested in logic. They're a front for ratings. Ole Miss is now the national love story. Setting them up to win a playoff game is good for business. As is an A&M ND rematch or Bama matchup in round 1.

Nome of this should be surprising

It's NOT surprising. The manipulation (#/corruption) is simply being pointed out.

You honestly think that those numbers mean anything at this point (BYU would have beat #4 tech, so does that count?)? And I'm not making these decisions. People who need reasons to move teams to where they want them to be do. We opened the door for them to put us wherever they want. This weekend will allow for further adjustments if needed.

It's all about matchups at this point. Once the field is decided this weekend, the order will be determined by matchups.

---

Ah, I got it now. This is an emotional response.

Ok, that clears things up.

---

Umm...seriously? You honestly believe that the committee wouldn't look for ways to move teams around? And that the games this weekend won't move teams around in the final rankings? Don't be naive. This isn't an emotional response. It's a realistic one, and you know it. If there are emotional responses, it's by the people making these decisions, and we have no idea what that entails. But what we do know is that these rankings aren't based on objective metrics, so why would that change for next week...?

---

Gotcha.

How much money are you willing to put down on BYU jumping the Ags if they win the B12?

---

I said it's possible, not that thats how it would actually play out. You're the only one making statements in absolutes. And you know this.

---

I made a claim that the Ags wouldn't be bumped down to 9. You said that could happen. When I asked you to back up your statement, you refused (and continue to do so).

Now you refuse to back up your position with money.

Strong beliefs weakly held, I suppose.

---

I said that it could result in us dropping, not specifically to 9 or below. There is the POSSIBILITY. Just because I throw out some sort of proof for you, as you demand it, doesnt make one bit of difference.

Impressive way to argue your points btw. It reeks weakness. But thats ok, you get your online victory in your own mind and feel better about yourself. No more responses to someone like you, you don't deserve it based on your childish responses.

---

The lady doth protest too much. Like I said before, a very emotional response.

Since you can't actually back up any of your fears you resort to…this.

I guess we shouldn't have crapped the bed against our rival in the last game of the regular season.

I feel like the committee moved Bama to 9 so that if they lose to UGA they just flip Notre Dame and Bama 9/10 so they can keep the narrative that making and losing the conference championship won't hurt you as much. They also keep two huge markets in Notre Dame and Bama in the playoff.

But there's always a scenario where BYU wins then one of Bama and Notre Dame would have to be kicked out. As BYU would be automatically in along with two other conference champions

---

If bama and byu both win, what would that do? Thats the question that no-one knows, and what would really make things shuffle more than any other scenario. It would give an excuse to move bama up, but how far? And where would BYU be then...? Clearly objective metrics are being used when it gets the desired matchups and ignored when it might get in the way. Both would be impressive wins, and would be enough to argue them moving up significantly. Just because we don't want that to happen doesnt mean that it wouldn't.

---

If the committee followed their own methodology, tech should fall out of the top 8 with 2 losses and BYU would move up. Bama would bump the Ags to 8.

OU and ND would be the big losers in this case with ND getting bumped out and OU moving to 9, (or probably lower), IMO.

---

Silly argument, Show definitive proof that a&m would drop to 8 or you aren't allowed to respond. You already said that a&m couldn't drop below 7. So back it up or ill call you an emotional woman.

Am I doing that right...?
