7/8 OR 9/10

Top 4 ranked conference champions… any conference

You are correct, my mistake.

We need SMU to win the ACC to secure the home game

Ohio State is not falling below us. The loser of the Big10 CG will not fall below us. If Georgia win the SEC, Texas will not fall below us, if Texas win Georgia might go below us (that head to head is the sticking point). Miami is gone, but SMU continues to impress, I can them jump us in this weeks ratings and if Clemson beats them, I can see the committee not punishing them.

Maybe it's my BVS, but I won't believe until the committee makes its final choices

I think we land at #6 in the rankings and the #8 seed Tuesday. I believe it’ll look like this:
1. Oregon
2. Texas
3. Penn St
4. Notre Dame
5. Georgia
6. Tennessee
7. Ohio St
8. SMU
9. Indiana
10. Boise St
11. Miami
12. Alabama or South Carolina
Seeding
1. Oregon
2. Texas
3. SMU
4. Boise St
5. Penn St
6. Notre Dame
7. Georgia
8. Tennessee
9. Ohio St
10. Indiana
11. Miami
12. Arizona St

if Oregon thumps Penn St and Texas can beat Georgia next weekend, I think we can get the 6 seed. If only one of those happen, we get the 7 seed. If Penn St and Georgia win, I think we get the 8 seed but still host.

I think it is more likely that Georgia stays ahead of us if they lose in Atlanta vs Texas staying ahead of us if they lose to Georgia

Miami is by no means gone..... they will likely be the first team out or last at large spot at 10-2....

Correct. If Clemson wins the ACC, the B12 champ will jump into the top four.

And......

 

[just bob]

Not necessarily.
It’s the “highest ranked “ conference champion.

So if Clemson wins against SMU. They’re in the playoffs but they won’t jump Tennessee because they just lost to South Carolina and have 3 losses.

Right now it’s to

Right now there'll only be SEC and Big10 teams in the top 4. Two of ACC, Big 12, or a group p5 team will jump in. Two teams will jump ahead.
