TCB Poll 2016: Week 8

October 26, 2016 by IrishElvis

With the advent of the College Football Playoff, we — the Elvii of college football — have joined together to present our weekly playoff nominations to keep the selection committee honest. We call it the TCB Poll.

Playoff Rankings: Week 8 Results

Each week, the TCB Poll is an aggregate of all our inputs. Scroll down to see individual selections and opinions — this is how we’d like to see the College Football Playoff if we had to narrow the field *right now* to determine a national champion. Images courtesy The Helmet Project.

TCB Committee Member Comments

@AuburnElvis

Well, well, well. How do those seven weeks picking Ohio State look NOW? Huh? What’s that? I can’t hear you? Or maybe your answer got blocked and run back for a touchdown.

  1. Bama – They’re undefeated or now, but don’t sleep on those rejuvenated tigers… either of them.
  2. THE University of Michigan – Not mocking the SEC for light scheduling any more, are they?
  3. Clemson – They may lose to FSU, or not. Whatever.
  4. Washington – They might slip up against Utah, but who’s the alternative pick here? West Virginia? Boise State? No thanks.I’ll keep the Huskies here until they lose.

@HawkeyeElvis

Is it basketball season yet? What a difference a year makes. Unless you are Alabama.

  1. Alabama – With apologies to Auburn Elvis, who is left to stand in Saban’s way?
  2. Michigan – Fine. I give up. I just hope we can do to the Wolverines what Penn State did to Ohio State.
  3. Clemson – Would love to see them thumplay the ‘Noles this weekend.
  4. Washington – Are the Huskies the only team in the Pac-12 to NOT give up 40 points a game?

@IrishElvis

Ah yes, the time when the playoff picture seems easy. Hang on, folks…it’s gonna get crazy in November.

  1. Alabama. Toughest schedule among the unbeaten teams.
  2. Clemson. 2-0 vs current top-10 teams (Louisville & Auburn)
  3. M******n. Only the Buckeyes can spoil the season.
  4. Washington. Best win to date is against 4-3 Stanford
