Been thinking about who gets in, conferences, seeds, etc...
The Big ten was either brilliant or lucky (both) because they could end up with 4 12-1 or 11-1 teams.
So assuming
Indiana wins out except for losses to OSC 11 -1
Penn State wins out 11- 1 (watch out at Minn)
I have no idea why Penn State is in at 11-1, but Indiana is maybe at 11- 1 when Indiana has looked better all year.
OSU wins out in the regular season
Oregon wins out
So Big Ten gets 4. Some of those will not have gotten a win vs ranked team (Penn State and Indiana)
Big 10 gets 1
ACC gets 1
ND in.
Group of 5 gets 1
So, that is 8 spots and leaves 4 for SEC.
But.....
What if undefeated Miami loses in the ACC championship? Does ACC get 2?
What if unfedeated BYU losses in Big 12 championship? Does Big 12 get 2?
I get that much will work itself out, but just like NCAA basketball tournament, start thinking about bid stealing.
To get more SEC teams in. Now, I think 10-2 UGA would be in, but to be sure, I think we need the following:
1) Penn State to lose at Minn - I don't know how they get in if it happens. Zero good wins
2) Notre Dame losses - they don't get in with two losses
3) Miami wins the ACC at 13-0
4) BYU wins Big 12 at 13-0
