Default National Champion

This would be the year for that playoff to start.
Ohio St started the year #2, has looked great and pretty much has no shot at all of playing in the championship game if Bama and FSU win out.
Just trying to start a discussion on this. Not saying I think Ohio St deserves to play for the title. They have beat nothing at all and looked pretty average until about 3 weeks ago.
As for Florida St, and I did not look at the standings but the only team that can really even challenge them would be Virginia Tech in the ACC title game, but Im not sure if thats going to happen after Va Techs horrible HORRIBLE LOSS TO DUKE 2.5 weeks ago. They at least play great D and have a QB who at times is great. It would be a test at least.
Bama is Bama, but this is the year I cant see them getting a pass if they get beat. I think they have to win out as Ohio St, Florida St and Standford are all very likely to win out

The one loss Bama team (assuming the loss is at Auburn) still should get in ahead of an undefeated Ohio State. The other 1 loss teams should not be in the conversation really.

they are not losing the Auburn game so I guess it's a moot point. maybe South Carolina could get them if they play a perfect game and make it to the SEC title game

They will be playing an excellent Missouri team for the SEC title.

All I could think of after the Auburn play happened was Jack Buck's famous line after the Gibson HR, "I don't believe what I just saw".
I honestly believe that this play will go on to that immortal list of great plays that you will never forget about.

If Alabama tries a last second 57-yd field goal, why did Nick Saban not use his "secret-weapon" earlier in the 4th quarter when 4th and 1 (much shorter attempt)?

Also, if you try a 57-yd FG with :01, have someone on your squad with speed to try to run down the fielded kick.

Questionable coaching decisions down the stretch IMO......

stanford has a loss, why would bama have to win out to stay ahead of them?
