anyone else think the Rose is likely off the table?

Regardless of where we land Tuesday (1 or 2)... I don’t see how a win over Miami doesn’t put us at #1, which would mean Sugar.
Even if we are 2 on Tuesday, a Miami win would give us another huge resume bump and put us 1 in the final poll. The only exception I see is if AU is somehow ahead of us on Tues and they beat UGA. But I don’t see any way they are #1 Tues.

Sugar and New Orleans are better. I've been to LA a dozen times. Don't bother.

Rose is in Pasadena, not LA

Got a nice little entertainment district and all adjacent to Caltech and nice neighborhoods (until you get past PCC). All safe walking for the most part. New Orleans is a big sewer.

Caltech is more than an hour’s walk from the Rose Bowl

I wouldn’t recommend it. But yes, the neighborhoods in San Marino are elite.

Rose is not happening for us, we will be the #1 seed if we win Saturday.
I'm not even going to speculate who will go to the Rose otherwise at this point.

don’t see that... if they win

I don’t see how they jump any of Clemson, OU, or AU (assuming they win)
I’m not sure they would jump UGA or Miami if they won, but that is more likely than jumping the others, IMO.

We will have 8 wins over teams with a winning record and 6 teams that were ranked (when we played them) in the Top 25, only 1 of those wins was a home game for us. BC is also reguarded as a quality win. If AU wins we are for sure #1 over a Wisconsin team who has 1 Top 25 win (Northwestern), which was at home and a terrible schedule beyond that win and the B1G Championship.
Michigan is their 2nd best win so far and that game was also played in Maddison.

Nah, Ohio St might be without Barrett, and possibly their Def. Coach, if they fire Schiano for taking another job. A win over OSU probably isn"t moving them up far at all. I think they're at best the #4.

If AU and OU win I think we get Wisconsin in the Sugar, with us the #1 seed.

Wisky will be either 2 or 3 to get them to Rose Bowl. Unless by some logic by the committee OU winds up 1 then Wisky will be 4. B1G to Rose Bowl works for everybody.

Personally would love to see the Tigers play just once in the historic Rose Bowl--would be a cool setting. NO is a good trip too...just rather go to LA than NO. However, probably better for team to have short trip

Auburn vs. Wisconsin/Ohio State winner in the Rose;
Clemson vs. Oklahoma in the Sugar.

No. 1 seed gets their preference, right? Of course, Dabo

would be crazy to pick the Rose over the Sugar, but if we are Number 1, choice is ours to make, is it not?

No. It was predetermined that 1/4 will play in the Sugar Bowl while 2/3 are in the Rose Bowl.

SEC team is a lock for the Sugar.
Oklahoma can easily jump Clemson if they trounce TCU
