Scratchtown Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 It's been a great day for Nebraska. At this point, win out and we're in. No. Not yet. TCU, FSU, PAC12 champ and SEC champ are in before nebraska assuming those all win out. Quote Link to comment
VA Husker Fan Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 It's been a great day for Nebraska. At this point, win out and we're in. No guarantee of that at all. FSU, Miss St (or Alabama or Ole Miss), Oregon and TCU winning out would be very bad for us. Chances are one of them will lose, but we still need at least one more shoe to drop. Quote Link to comment

Moving up 2 or 3 spots during a bye week is a success in my book Quote Link to comment

I have a hard time seeing a one loss Big 12 team making it in over a 1 loss B1G team with a CCG. I also don't see a second SEC team making it at this point. Quote Link to comment

Moving up 2 or 3 spots during a bye week is a success in my book PowerT was more accurate. Oregon OR Arizona St from the Pac 12 winning out is ahead of us. K State or TCU or Baylor is probably ahead of us (and TCU's path is pretty easy after this, really just Texas). FSU could possibly stay ahead of us with a loss. Lots of time, but we still need help. Biggest challenge is for us to win out though. Quote Link to comment
LumberJackSker Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Auburn won't fall in some polls but I don't think the selection committee is a bunch of SEC groupies so I could see them falling behind Nebraska if Nebraska is ranked 10 or so but I could also see Baylor jumping Nebraska in the polls so who knows Baylor is already ahead of us in the playoff poll my bad Quote Link to comment
The Dude Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Nebraska just needs to worry about winning out. Do that and there's a very slim chance we don't make the playoffs when it all shakes out. We have a CCG advantage over the Big XII. Quote Link to comment

VA Husker Fan Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 TCU is the top ranked B12 team and is spanking the next best team. They will increase the gap over us. Even if we gain spots by teams between us losing, in reality they will be seen as further ahead. Is Wisky, Minnie, Iowa, and MSU/OSU enough to make up the gap? I really doubt TCU loses again, though maybe the Texas that showed up today could beat them. Quote Link to comment
