Really appreciate herbies\' support, he seems like one of the most well informed national commentators and I think his opinion is the most well respected of all the ESPN talking heads. Still, TCU has a solid lead in the computers over us, and that won\'t change in a week. Short of massive TCU voter defection, they would go to the NCG if one team falters, not us. We would need a lot of voters to elevate us over both wisco and tcu.
If both Oregon and Auburn lose however, I think we have a very credible chance of going to the NCG. We will be ahead of Oregon in the computers for sure, and possibly Auburn as well. We should also cross our fingers for a speedy NCAA investigation into Newtongate.
Luckily our lead over wisco is ironclad. There is literally no scenario they could pass us. Zero chance.
