1. Big Ten champion
2. SEC champion
3 ACC champion
4. G5 Boise St (also gets a BYE)
5. Big 12 champion
6. Notre Dame 11-1
7. Big Ten runner-up: PSU 11-2 or 12-1 Oregon
8. Tennessee 10-2 (SEC 3rd place)
9. Indiana 11-1 (3rd place)
10. SEC runner-up: 11-2 Texas or 10-3 UGA
11. Ohio State 10-2 (4th place)
12. SEC? Probably, a 9-3 4th place Bama?
(Or 11-2 ACC runner-up SMU, should Clemson win ACC…remember SMU went undefeated in a P4 conference 8-0, and will enter the ACC championship game, probably ranked #8 or maybe #7, w/only loss was to a then-top 10 BYU team by 3 points.
BOTTOM LINE: THEY ARE GOING TO BE SEVERAL 9-3 SEC TEAMS (& 8-4 A&M, who was dumb enough to play Notre Dame) LEFT OUT OF THE PLAYOFFS
AND OBVIOUSLY THE ACC CHAMP & LIKELY BOISE STATE GET A FIRST ROUND PLAYOFF BYE
It could’ve been worse: the SEC is lucky that there was some parody near the top of the big 12 and they all gave each other two losses each.
If there was a big 12 team that finished the regular season 12-0: they would likely be in the playoffs, no matter what, even if they lose in the big 12 championship game to finish 12-1 and take up that 12th spot.
WE NEED 16 !!!!!!
There would be some great first round matchups: EVEN 1 vs 16, 2 vs 15 and 3 vs 14 could all be awesome.
