Who is the team you hate (don't want) to be in the CFP?

Specifically, which team that is in the top 6 or knocking on the door to get in do you want to fail when the final playoff rankings are released?
If I had to pick one it would be Oklahoma.

Ohio State.
After that ######## last year where they got in without having to even with the #### conference I hope they never sniff the playoffs.

As a team I don't want to play it would probably be Wisconsin. Those are some big boys who would match up on our lines better than most. The offense doesn't scare me but there defense could limit our run game.

I wouldn’t want to play Oklahoma, auburn or bama. I know you said one team, but those three could beat us.
First, Oklahoma’s offense will score on our defense, I say at least 30 points. They are that good. Now their defense is horrible, I think we could score 30 on them, but not much more. We can not win a shootout game. I see that as a loss.
Then auburn. They are not the same team we played in September. Their offense is rolling and they are still playing great defense. I don’t think we could score 21 points on them, and I think they could score more than that on us.
Then Bama. Obviously their defense has some holes in it with all the injuries, but they still stop the run, and that’s all we can do. Their offense is better than last years. Another bad matchup for us.

I actually feel we would match up well with Okie.

Our defense would put tremendous pressure on Baker Mayfield. Offense would be in rhythm against their crappy defense.

Yep, we'd have 400+yds of rushing against Okie. Don't

care how many they put in the box, we'd beat'em bad in the trenches. And if we have a healthy secondary, Mayfield would have a looooooong day.

Auburn. I think they would give us the toughest competition.

If the reasoning is not liking them, Ohio State. If the reason is they don't deserve to be there, Wisconsin. If the reason is I don't want to have to play them, Auburn.

I never liked the idea of playing a team twice in a season.

Too hard to beat them twice. But, if we took an L earlier in the year then of course I'd like another shot at them. Agree, I don't want to play Auburn again unless it's #1 vs #2 in the final game.

Not out of fear, just because I think OU's BM is just that. I didn't mind the whole flag-planting fiasco at OSU, but if he wins the Heisman the year after DW4 gets the snub for a 3-loss point wwhhore, the award will mean nothing. When he meets a real D in the CFP, he will go down.
So, Oklahoma.

Notre Dame. If South Carolina were playing them, I'd still be pulling against them. Hopefully it would be South Carolina's only win for the season.

Clemson winning and the coots losing. Whatever happens in this playoff thing happens. I am just worried about what the Tigers do.
