Ohio State vs. Georgia for title?

This is a very strong possiblitiy if WVU loses to UConn or Pitt and Kansas/Missouri lose in the Big 12 championship.. i would like to see an SEC team in the title game, i would hate for one of those weak Big 10 or Big 12 schools to win the title

If Tennessee beats Kentucky today, it will eliminate any chance (and it's awfully slim to begin with) of Georgia playing for the national title.

You can't finish 2nd in your own division and get a free pass to the national championship game...especially with a loss to South Carolina on your resume.

while it is unlikely, it has happened. ask the 2001 nebraska cornhuskers.

Darnit Duckman, you beat me to it. And to make things worse, that Nebraska team got drilled by 26 to Colorado and still made it in over the Buffs.

I see what ur saying but if Kansas/Missouri winner loses in the Big 12 championship and WVU loses another game then UGA would move right up there in the rankings with OSU because they wouldnt get jumped by any other two loss teams behind them... going in to today there are 4 teams with one loss or less and two of them have a good chance to lose today so that would leave Georgia, Ohio State and Kansas/Missouri in the hunt for the national title

There is something bad wrong with a system that can put a team that does not even win it's own league, in a NC game.
