Despite the fact that I only know one player among these four teams (Baker), I can assure to you that UGA wins it all.

I don't necessarily believe OSU should have made it, but the SEC getting two teams is hilarious

SEC is down from where it once was, but the top teams are just as good as the top teams around the nation.

Alabama didn't play anyone, and the best part is, they're not even the 2nd most deserving SEC team. Auburn beat them, and because of that they qualified for a game Alabama did not qualify for, and losing that game caused them to drop 3 spots below Alabama? What kind of logic is that?

Auburn lost three games.

Bammer also beat a healthy FSU.

Before the SEC title game, a game in which Alabama did not qualify for, Auburn was 3 spots ahead of Alabama

Wasn't OSU on the opposite side of this argument last year?

They will have to beat 2 great defenses to get there. If they win, hey will have earned it

Bama doesn't go ranked 1 or 2 for the entire season and not get into the playoff after losing 1 game, on the road, against #6. I knew they were getting in when I saw Vegas had them favored to win over any potential Playoff team. Nick Saban with a month to prepare and something to prove is probably the worst thing any team wants to see in a semifinal.  Bama also has time to get their LB corps healthy.  The committee no doubt looks at what a 100% healthy Bama team did to FSU in game 1 and is envisioning that squad lining up against Clemson.
 
I can't wait to see the trilogy and then see Mayfield get throttled by an actual defense. Georgia is going to pressure the hell out of him. Playing against nothing but Big 12 teams down the stretch is counterproductive for the Sooners.
 
I think people will be pissed to see Bama vs Georgia in the Natty. Silver lining will be the ensuing discussion to bump the playoff to 6 teams.

Army won yesterday... which means we’ll get a day off this week or next. The Secretary of the Army will sign a memo authorizing this day to celebrate the Cadets’ victory.

God damn right we’re invested into that rivalry.
