I am in no way saying the UO still has a chance to make the playoffs simply because I don't see them winning out from here. But what if they did and finished 9-3? Are we sure that this year a three loss team wouldn't get in?

Right now, with around half the season in the books, there are only two SEC teams with under two losses. In the BIG that number is four. With so many games left with head to head match ups and some upsets thrown in, the list of two loss teams will shrink each week. Does a two loss ACC team with a weak schedule slide by an SEC or BIG team that went 3-3 against ranked opponents?

Parody seems to have over taken college football this year and I think that's a great thing. This year, I think a three loss team may get in. Maybe even more than one.

It's possible... A three loss tram made the playoffs once already with Clemson sneaking in as the ACC champ in 2024.

That's true. I'm not talking about a championship game winner getting in with three losses. I mean could a three loss team have one of the twelve best resumes and get in this year?

I don't think there are enough zero or one loss teams to fill up the spots right now half way through the season.

It’s possible, but no way will it be Oregon, who will most likely have 4+ losses by the end of the regular season.
