Igno Rants on College FootballThe podcast equivalent of the prevent defense

With Week 10 in the books, and the second CFP rankings coming out tomorrow, it seems clear that five teams have a clear path to the playoffs by winning out: Bama, Clemson, Washington, and Michigan / Ohio State. The case for a two-loss SEC-champ Auburn to get in is there, but it’s also a lot less clear (how would the committee evaluate 2-loss Auburn against Louisville, especially with the rest of the SEC starting to fall apart and bringing down Auburn’s SOR?).

Time will tell, of course, and there’s much in the way of football to be played that could upset the Apple (Cup) cart. Wisconsin could finally find its identity and win the B1G CG. Washington could falter down the home stretch.

But for now, let’s bask in the glory of our respective wins, over our respective foes, with the respective perspective to be gained from each, including:

• Some gloating from Carey about being correct on how both the Bama and Auburn games would play out.
• Does Coach Orcherwahn deserve a shot at the big job?
• If you can have moral victories after a loss, can you have moral losses with a win (ahem, cough cough Vandy cough)?
