After watching the good Pac-12 division today

UCLA beating Arizona makes Oregon's road win at UCLA look better. Arizona beating UCLA at the Rose Bowl makes Oregon's loss look better. Either way Oregon wins.

You really don't understand how this works.

Argue against that logic smart guy. Let's see what you've got.

Chip Almighty.

Arizona is loosing this game. The problem is you'll end up with at most one true quality win (MSU) and your loss is headed to the suck territory where we all knew it belonged. You needed UA to win out and beat then beat them in the championship game and pick up a quality win and maintain it as a quality loss.

Unless of course you're counting on UCLA to win out and become a decent win. In which case you haven't actually watched UCLA this year.

Fact remains. Win and get in. By default Oregon gets in over Notre Dame and Michigan St. The SEC will sort itself out. There are no other remaining contenders to lose sleep over at this point, as long as Oregon finishes its business.

I wouldn't count out ND. They almost beat FSU and were unfairly penalized (I can't believe I just wrote that). Also, K St. has one loss as does Texas Muslim. SEC schools will beat each other up.

Good poont about Kansas State having one loss. It's a blackeye for the SEC.

If Oregon wins out i'm pretty sure they are in. The media hype surrounding the team will help its case and they'll most likely be 2-3 in the country in both polls. I don't care if they say they don't look at those things, they will not let a #2 ranked oregon that lost early in the season without a key contributor on the line miss the final four.

This. No further argument is required.

If it comes down to K-State and Oregon for the final position, favor will tilt in Oregon's direction. The pummeling Oregon gave them in the Fiesta Bowel will still be fresh in peoples' minds and probably influence the decision somewhat.

KState won't end the year w 1 loss

 

[Swaye]

This thread validates why I hate the new playoff. Sounds like March Madness (quality win, bad loss, blah blah blah), not football.

 

[SevenEleven]

Just wait till the 8 team playoff...you wont be waiting long.

With that said

March madness >>>>>>>>>>> bowl season

 

[mobey]

What's it matter? If whoregon sneaks in they'll be embarrassed as usual in big games.

3-0 over the Pac-12 > 9-1 over the Pac-12.

Throw in FSU, SEC champ, and XII champ and where does Oregon go?

Notre Dame doesn't play a conference championship. That means that Notre Dame is Door. Ass. Out. In this scenario. An Oregon with 1 loss and a conference championship will trump the second SEC team out.

Don't need to play a conference championship when you win the Pac-12 outright.

Beating Sark coached USC, a 4 loss Stanford (barely) and ASU doesn't qualify as a conference championship, except in your own book. HTH.

It beats losing at home to Arizona and dodging USC and ASU completely.

Last I checked Notre Dame was struggling against fucking Navy. End of discussion.

In other words, Notre Dame is a typical shit tier Pac-12 team.

FIFY. The better teams in the conference don't struggle against Navy.

Your beloved Ohio State Buckeyes also struggled against Navy.

Other than talent, what about UCLA looks like a good team?

Beating Arizona at home

And to me that speaks volumes about Oregon for losing to Arizona at home.

Good God you can be stupid.

 

[IPukeOregonGrellow]

How the hell is UW 2-3 in the BAD division?

A quarterback who'll be transferring to Montana State in the next year? Running backs who I think I could beat in the 40 and I'm in my thirties and drink? An offensive line that Sark recruited as an afterthought while going after small wide receivers with questionable hands?

Not to mention an egomaniac that probably is as Dwight Shrute as is possible.
