Win then they must be really good. And then they play Clemson and lose 44-16 and don’t score most of the last 3 quarters. I honestly don’t care what he thinks. If we win out we are in. If we lose one we are at the mercy of others.

Cool. How far UP the rankings should UGA move if they lose to Tenn or Ky or GT or UF or the coots? Will losing to Tenn move UGA in front of BAMA or just in front of Clemson? Will LSU become the unanimous #1 if they lose to OleMiss or does that just move them in front of Clemson?

Isn't he the guy that said Alabama could potentially win in a "blowout" in last year's NC game, and that "the moment" would be too big for Trevor?
Yup, cool.

Bingo.
Paul Finebaum is the biggest hoax in college football.
I realize ESPN calls him an "analyst" and frequently askes him questions regarding football teams from other PWR5 conferences but it's still total nonsense.
He's Tennesse grad and hosts an SEC talk-show that openly caters to Alabama. In no way shape or form is he capable of offering an objective opinion of football teams from other conferences. If I'm a fan of an ACC, BIG TEN, etc... school the last person I'd tune in for an honest take on my team is him.
I don't think any intelligent fans (outside the SEC) fans take this guy's opinions seriously.

Finebaum works for SEC Network, so nothing he says has any credibility
Since the 2012 season Clemson is 8-2 in 10 post season games
4 games vs BAMA 2 games vs Ohio State 2 games vs Oklahoma 1 game vs LSU 1 game vs Notre Dame
Clemson is outscoring their opponents in those games by 328-201 that's a 12.7 avg margin of victory

Crazy thing is Bama is actually 7-4 in that same time-frame.
4 vs Clemson 2 vs Oklahoma 1 vs UGA 1 vs Mich St. 1 vs Washington 1 vs Notre Dame 1 vs Washington
Although, technically their streak would go back to 2009 where they are 10-4 with 4 Nattys in that time frame.
1 vs Texas 1 vs Mich St 1 vs LSU

Last year He said ND didn’t belong but this year UGa barely beats them and he will consider them the greatest team to left out. Disgusting.

I don’t care what Paul says and undefeated Clemson on a 30 game win streak (and if it happens will be one of the longest winning streaks in college football history) is not getting left out.
His statements prove he is not a journalist. And shouldn’t be taken seriously.
If what he is saying is true. Why even play any games the rest of the season then, If the sec is going to all be guaranteed a bunch of rematches.
Alabama, LSU and auburn should all agree to just lose 1 game to each other. Then Bama should beat an undefeated UGA in the sec championship game. Bing bang boom, we get Alabama, auburn, LSU, and UGA in the 4 team playoff, playing each other.... again!
The BCS, and college football playoff was developed, because there were teams who had maybe gone undefeated, teams out there who had a legitimate claim to being the best team I. The country in a given year. The u defeated auburn team back in the 2000s comes to mind.
It wasn’t developed so that a bunch of teams from one conference could try to get a rematch with each other, after a mulligan. If you lose your conference championship, too bad. You don’t get to try again in the playoffs, unless nobody else can field a team that is competent from their conference.
Pauls I completely wrong on this one. If there is one thing the CFP has not allowed so far (and will likely never allow) it is a bunch of rematches. If the opportunity during the regular season was available to see 2 teams play to determine who was better, there is no need to repeat that game during the playoffs.
Just my opinion, but this opinion has been backed up by the committee so far.

"Alabama, LSU and auburn should all agree to just lose 1 game to each other."
I wish now that I had saved it, but there was an article a few years ago about how the media was pumping up the Big 10. It went something like (paraphrasing)...
"Wisconsin is a great team because they beat Ohio State. Ohio State is a great team because they beat Michigan. Michigan is a great team because they beat Penn State. Penn State is a great team because they beat...Wisconsin."

Clemson is going undefeated and getting in. The end. The playoffs are about selecting the four best teams, not searching for "competent" teams. It's entirely possible one of those best teams has a loss.

"The playoffs are about selecting the four best teams." I get tired of this argument. The playoffs is about finding THE BEST TEAM. If we know a team is not the best team in their conference how can they be the BEST team in the country. If you are making a comparison like 2 years ago where the non conference champion has less losses I can understand though I might not agree. However, if there is any argument I think that you have to defer to the one deemed the best in their conference.

Pre-season rankings tend to boost the SEC too much.
Oct 3, 2019, 10:37 AM
|
|
Every year two or three SEC teams are purposely over-ranked in order to make the elite SEC teams' strength of schedule look better. This year it is Florida and Texas A&M. Florida based on past history (Tebow days) and A&M based on the name recognition of the head coach. Both of these teams will wind up with 3 to 5 losses each by end of year. However, Bama - Auburn - Georgia - LSU will all benefit as they beat these "ranked" teams during the year.

An undefeated national champ is going to the playoff for sure. We have nothing to worry about if that happens.
