    Interesting. Provided we have a solid win against TN just finishing top 5 is enough for me.

    As long as we finish higher than Kansas.

    islstl, wouldn't a USC win give them a chance to jump us?

    Naa... we have 2 losses... we played the OT and were beat fair and square.

    I'm just saying in the years college football has been around, there has only been one team to win a title with 2 losses... and that one is actually pretty suspect.

    Yep, the Gophers in '60. However the linked page from the College Football Data warehouse shows the final AP & Coaches polls were released the end of November. The Gophers second loss in the bowl wasn't a factor.

    I just looked at West Virginia's schedule this year and got encouraged that Pitt might could pull the upset. Of course I will not put any money on it.

    I don't know where you got your list, but.......

    Minnesota was the NC in 1936
    Georgia was the NC in 1942

    But even worse, :LSU231: was 11-0-0 and the NC in 1958

    You're saying that Iowa at 8-1-1 topped the Chinese Bandits? Sacrilege!:cuss:

    Time to start praying. Lou is about to give a pep talk to Pitt.

    I was hoping someone would do this. I should have known islstl was all over it.
