I dont think a 1 loss team will fall below 7.

Yeah, but we JUST lost last Friday!!!

I personally don't mind #5:either. But the coaches always want the extra rest.

Real question is how will the committee judge a CCG loss. If IU loses 70-0, do they fall below us? If Bama wins 66-7, does UGA fall below us?

Personally, don't think CCG will affect our final ranking...think we are going down regardless to 6-8 (even if ttu loses, they will not be penalized unless totally blown out and not going to happen).

Essentially, we had a poor Nov showing again (USCe wasn't good as 1/2 showed tons of issues, losing to tu exposed all phases) while other teams 'won their Nov' and controlled their Nov opponents (oregon won and beat some decent team...not easy beating Iowa at home as I've been there and they play well). We were only top 12 team to lose last week...bad for subjectivity test that is really how this is done regardless of complaining.

In short, we want the lowest ranked team in each CCG to win.

We will move ahead of Ole Miss to #6.

If Bama wins, we potentially move ahead of UGA.

If BYU beats Tech, we move ahead of them.

With tOSU and IU, we probably do not move ahead of whoever loses that game.

So with those two upsets, we could get back to #4 and a bye.

---

Not sure we want to sit for a month before our next game. I think we want the #5 slot hosting G5 then possibly Tceh in the Cotton Bowl.

Or the #6 slot hosting G5 and heading to the Orange to play Indiana possibly.

---

#5 is best spot possible, ESPECIALLY for teams not in CCGs.

That's very funny. I'm old enough to remember Dorris Day singing that song and I know exactly what you mean. The older I get the more I realize how true it is. Lol. I'm trying to teach my 29-year-old son something my father told me a thousand times - "90% of the **** we worry about, works itself out."

I'll be flying all day Saturday to Bogota and then Sau Paulo and I'll probably be killing a good bit of time (and brain cells) watching college football games in the air and in airport lounges. I'm just trying to make a bunch of games (that I honestly don't care about) a bit more interesting to watch.

A funny side note: That's supposed to be a Spanish saying. I've said that to my Colombian wife a few times over the years. But my wife and her amigas from central and south American interpret that to mean (literally): "What Sarah? Sarah?"

One of my good friends and business associates is an older gringo (like me) and he's married to a younger Latina woman (like me) from El Salvador. We're all four really good friends. His wife's name is Sarah. But they pronounce Sarah exactly like "Sera."

He's hard of hearing (like me) and I can't tell you how many times we've all laughed when he asks his wife "Que Sarah?"

Thanks for the laugh. Be well brother.

Dude, no dis but your accent must suck! You've already admitted your hearing does.

There is a world of difference between an "e" sound and an "a" sound. Vowels in Spanish never vary as they do in English, not to mention if there is an accent in a syllable.

Sarah doesn't sound anything like "sera", which has a mild accent in the first syllable.

Hope that helps.
