Esso's iron-clad playoff selection process :-)
Nov 7, 2019, 9:23 AM

I wanted a thread of my own. I want to be on record with predicting the exact 4 teams that should be in the playoffs.
My Chart is a way , in my opinion, to eliminate strength of schedule, eye test, and margin of victory from the vast majority of the decisions in determining the 4 best and most deserving teams in the playoffs assuming the evaluation starts at the same point as the committee begins. For simplifuication , I have left out the Irish and the non power 5 teams. I don't believe that adding them would impact the results.
POWER 5 Conferences
Factor 1 - A LOSS, or a "teams loss total" is the primary rating
Factor 2 - A Win , or "the total team wins" is the tie breaker
Factor 3 # of Wins against power 5 competrion is the 3rd tie breaker
KEYS for understanding the chart.
1- It is not a "ranking"
2- it is a visual of all teams and where they stand related to the top 4 teams
3- In the chart , there currently 10 teams that meet the "minimum" current requirement to make the playoffs. (those in green) If playoffs were starting now, there would be a mess (10 teams , 4 slots)
4- After this weekend , some of the Green will lose (AL vs LSU). The loser of that game will no longer be green. In my Chart, there is NO WAY for a team t o move UP in color. Only for the Greens to lose enough games to allow a YELLOW team into the playoffs.
Example: for a YELLOW team to make the playoffs, 7 Green teams would have to lose for a Yellow team to make it.
I think that I will be 100% correct with who makes the playoffs using this chart. That is unless the committee gets it wrong

Yes I am , I have told you the process to get from where I am at , to where we end up with the exact 4 teams. if more than 4 teams remain undefeated, or a 1 loss team gets in, I lose.

Which it really should be, if the regular season matters.

All the SEC pundits yammering about getting 1 loss non Champions in want you to believe that it doesn't.

I think it has happened before. Wasn't that what Ohio State was so upset about?

Ohio was a 2 loss conference champ though.
The committee took less losses for their playoff pick.
Let's hope they make the same decision this season.

That is very cool and very smart Esso, I like it.
Plus, if you squint your eyes it sorta looks like a Jackson Pollack painting.
Win, win.
