The Rose and Sugar are being used for the semifinals so their auto bids are

Wrong. They are not "displaced" from those games if they are playing in them in

Those bids don't get displaced. The conferences are only contracted to specific

A “displaced P5 champion” still gets an autobid

A few issues. Alabama would still count as the SEC auto-bid since they are in

jreid191

10/19/20 10:07pm

Right. It's late. Orange not Peach. But, playoff teams aren't counted as auto

10/19/20 10:10pm

Wrong. If Sugar is playoff bowl and SEC team is in playoff them that team is the

The only SEC autobid is in the Sugar.

A lot can go wrong between now and then, but if it could play out like that...

I'll take that

Do we really think the PAC is goin to get auto bids with a 6 game schedule?

TheLoneCougar

10/20/20 7:09am

I dont think most teams will play 6 games

OC Coug

10/20/20 9:08am

The PAC has a contract spot in the Rose Bowl. This year, because the Rose Bowl

Doogal McCougar

10/20/20 9:52am

Does that work if they only have 4-5 games played?

TheLoneCougar

10/20/20 10:05am

Of course. That's why they're playing now instead of Spring.

Doogal McCougar

10/20/20 10:12am

Are we sure they are displaced? Seems people are "sure" that both ways work

Watch Coastal Carolina and UNC. UNC is behind BYU following its 1st loss. If UNC

Undefeated and crushing opponents - absolutely

OC Coug

"Should be"

Z-Ute

10/20/20 11:59am

BYU hype always disappears because they lose. If they don't lose it won't stop

mcnasty

We'll see

10/20/20 2:19pm

In a regular year the B1G and PAC play a lot more games

puntersarepeople

10/20/20 11:54am

Again, does the committee though

Z-Ute

10/20/20 12:02pm

Impossible to be certain

puntersarepeople

10/20/20 12:34pm

No question BYU is a bigger draw...

Z-Ute

10/20/20 12:58pm

For sure.

puntersarepeople

10/20/20 1:04pm

good question

teancum

"I'm not bashing BYU"

Not going to fall for that one...?
