Week 14 college football primer How conference cha

Conference championship weekend is here, the last chance for chaos before the College Football Playoff committee selects the four teams that will play in the Rose Bowl Game and Sugar Bowl on Dec. 1.How much chaos can the final weekend bring on the final Saturday of the college football regular season?MORE:Here are five things that could increase the drama heading into the final stretch.TCU winsWith apologies to the Pac-12 championship on Friday night, No. 10 USC probably can't wiggle into the College Football Playoff even if they beat No. 12 Stanford. We don't think No. 11 TCU can get in by beating No. 3 Oklahoma in the Big 12 championship game, but that Dont'a Hightower Jersey could open the door for others. Imagine if the return of the Big 12 championship game somehow keeps the conference out of the College Football Playoff?CHAMPIONSHIP PICKS: | The 12:30 p.m. ET kick makes this game the tone-setter for the other three conference championship games.Vols hire a coachWant to hijack the SEC championship game? Tenne see's coaching search continues, and if it's still going on Saturday then the Vols could make a splash by hiring that coach Saturday. Remember when Les Miles held a news conference before the 2007 SEC championship game to stay he was staying at LSU? It would be something like that New England Patriots Golf Sporting Goods .MORE: J.T.'s kneeThe Columbus Dispatch reports quarterback J.T. Barrett underwent on Monday, but should playfor No. 8 Ohio State against No. 4 Wisconsin in the Big Ten championship game Saturday. Is this gamesmanship from Urban Meyer? Will Barrett be good to go, or will the Buckeyes turn to backup Dwayne Haskins, who pinch-hit for Barrett in a 31-20 victory against Michigan last week? That would closely resemble 2014, when Cardale Jones led Ohio State to a 59-0 victory against the Badgers as part of a national championship run. How will the committee view the Buckeyes with or perhaps without Barrett?Every top-four team losesWhat if Shaun Wade Jersey the top four teams all lose? If USC, Miami, TCU, Georgia and Ohio State all win, then the top 11 ends up like this by record (* indicates conference champion).NO.TEAM1Clemson (11-2)2Auburn (10-3)3Oklahoma (11-2)4Wisconsin (12-1)5Alabama (11-1)6Georgia* (12-1)7Miami* (11-1)8Ohio State* (10-2)9Penn State (10-2)10USC* (11-2)11TCU* (11-2)Have fun with that one, College Football Playoff committee. says the playoff would be Georgia, Miami, Ohio State and Alabama in that order. That's more than likely what we would get and they can play Georgia-Alabama as a SEC championship game, Part II, given the Bulldogs didn't play the Crimson Tide this year.Yet Clemson and USC would have better than a 30-percent chance, and didn't Oklahoma beat Ohio State head to head? Why wouldn't undefeated UCF have an argument at this point if they beat Memphis is the American Athletic Conference championship game?More chaos will generate some interesting decisions for the committee.If the favorites win, then this is the last piece of drama.Alabama fans are in that weird spot where if TCU Yasir Durant Jersey loses, then they need Wisconsin to lose but in ugly Ben Coates Jersey fashion. If Ohio State wins with a blowout, then that will sway the committee to take the conference champion Buckeyes?Is Ohio State's resume enough to offset the lo ses to Oklahoma and Iowa? Or is the Crimson Tide the better team? The committee doesn't have to knock Alabama out of the playoff to put the Buckeyes in, but they better have a good case for letting Ohio State jump from No. 8 to No. 4.It's the debate to end all debates, and it just happens to feature two of the three most succe sful programs in college football today.MORE: The winner of that debate could get the third program in Clemson.That's drama for another day, butwe can't wait to get there.
