UH has seen a slow climb in the AP and CFP rankings. Somewhere in the Top 15 in the CFP rankings is realistic, and it this point, expected. UH has gotten the CFP’s attention.

Just win out
The likely hood is other teams will lose and we will benefit
Ponder this
If we get into the top 10-12
Do we want to play in the conference champ
Game
If we go into champ week sitting at 12
And byu is 11 and tech 10
Do we want to play the champ game ?
Assuming Utah beats tech do we wind up at 11?
If tech loses to okie state
They drop to 13 and we could get to 12 this week
But we really don’t have much room to advance
Smu beating wake would help
Texas needs to lose to lsu
If we lose at 12 or 11 to Utah we’re out
If we don’t play we may be in with no risk

Ever heard of the book Chaos by Tom O’Neill?
No. I will be on that
Before I read the book I listened to several
podcasts that O’Neill appeared on.

A clinical psychologist might refer to this as “sequential processing under duress.”
TimmyChan’s ability to prioritize memory and order events under the heavy bombardment of cheap alcohol is a thing of beauty.

Not getting to 11 or better without getting to BIG12 championship

Disagree.
I believe the Big12 will get 3 teams in.
There’s an outside chance of 4.

I would feel better about Utah’s #2 ranking if one of their two wins, either against UH or BYU, was on the road.
They’re undefeated. Who do you want put above them? 2 loss Bama? UCLA who doesn’t have any notable wins? Or ND who lost to BYU?

For UH, I would keep an eye on Texas Tech. TT’s next two games are on the road, Oklahoma St., who is now #25 in the CFP, and will be highly motivated to beat TT, and Baylor, whose QB, D.J. Lagway, has put up over 40 the last two games.
UH just has to TCB.

Okst beating Tech increases are odds of making the CCG significantly. Ultimately I feel like we’re only getting in with the auto bid (minus an absolute mad finish in the other leagues), so obviously anything that serves that purpose is what I’m rooting for. I think we can beat Utah on a rematch in Arlington.

Yeah, and how do you feel about 1 loss TT being on the outside looking in at 5 teams ahead of them with 2 losses? You can’t tell me they wouldn’t take a 3 loss SEC team over 2 loss B12 teams. The proof is what they’re doing right now to TT. There’s your proof.
BYU is on the inside with 2 losses because of their win over ND.

SEC bias is nauseating. 
They mentioned A&M as a marquee win for Kentucky. Unbelievable.
Kentucky has no business being ranked as high as they are.

Yep, a nice way to say that our “best wins” suck

Yeah, but almost half the top 25 are in the same boat.

So, root for Baylor to beat BYU and Tech, so they’ll be a potential “pretty” win?
There are 9 SEC teams in CFP top 25. Those nine teams have combined for one win over a ranked team in out of conference play. One. And that was over 6-3 Ohio State.
Georgia is ranked #1 with wins over Alabama and Ole Miss but a wtf home loss to Auburn. Utah has two top 15 wins and no losses. Can anyone explain that?
