Our calculations agree. But I expect we win Harris by around 80 points.Yeah, they are hoping that they win 5 of the 6 computer polls, which would make it very hard for Bama to win the Harris poll by a wide enough margin to get in. If they win 5 of the 6 computer polls, we would need to win the Harris poll by 53 points - which translates to getting 84 of 115 2nd place votes.
If we do, it is over (assuming we place no lower than #3 in more than one computer poll).Our calculations agree. But I expect we win Harris by around 80 points.
That is assuming the rumor about the Wolfe poll is correct.Let me make sure I have this correct.
If we are number 2 in the Harris poll, then no matter what we are in? Based on computer ranking?
Yep. And by the way, we earned ZERO #4 votes in AP, which is much more volatile than Harris. OSU earned several.If we do, it is over (assuming we place no lower than #3 in more than one computer poll).

This is exactly how it feels. I have to admit.... I think a playoff would be more palatable than this. And I've long been against a playoff.Am I the only one who feels like I'm watching returns on an election night?![]()
A lot of us on here might be drugged out by the time 7:15pm rolls aroundOk thank you. Then I am sure the poll will be held till tonight. And the announcement will be drugged out.
Let's just all call them up. I'm sure they won't mind.Must be a lot of people hitting the Harris Poll site (including me) and it's ground to a sloooow pace on page reloads.
Waiting on AP in '78 after coaches voted USC #1 felt like this too.This is exactly how it feels. I have to admit.... I think a playoff would be more palatable than this. And I've long been against a playoff.
