UL's screwed. A 1 loss Texas A&M gets in over them due to SOS. A 1 loss OSU or 1 loss Mich gets in over them due to SOS... Clemson can lose the title game to UNC and still get in over UL... and a 1 loss Washington gets in over them too. UL needs some teams to lose 2 games to have any shot at the play off.
No way does a one-loss Washington go over them. I also do not see A &M running the table the rest of the way.
Alabama and Clemson will go undefeated
OSU/Michigan winner should get in (Hopefully it's Michigan)
And that leaves Louisville hoping for Washington to lose
The committee will look at the fact that UofL barely lost to Clemson and the fact that they have the Heisman winner and give UofL the nod if they win the rest of the way.
I kind of want to see them make the playoff just to see a fun game and see how they'd fare against Bama.
Alabama vs Louisville
Michigan vs Clemson
As a football fan, that's what I would pick. Washington isn't that impressive to me.
