Hopefully not at all tbh.
At least, not on the mere face value of them.

Of course, there's a million "ifs" but if Bama stays on this roll, then any team that's 1-loss behind other contenders but stayed close/respectable to Bama belongs in. Period. And I'm even including a hypothetical UGAg in that.

A LOT of football left to be played however, and a LOT depends on how the current outcomes look after that's all done. Washington did not need Auburn losing yesterday, for example. (just one example of plenty to pick from by the time we get there)
