Playoff committee will be using the exact same variables and criteria that they have been using in years past. They won't change anything despite the fact that some teams have played 10 games and some have played 3 or even 1.

The BYU Washington game was more important to Washington. Because BYU is not getting into the playoffs no matter what. Washington needed a marquee win over a top 10 team. To help their playoff chances.

Cincinnati should not risk playing BYU. Cincinnati is so close to getting a NY 6 game and playing BYU will probably ruin that.

BYU has a very low chance of getting a NY6 game even at 10-0. A major bowl will not pick BYU over an Oklahoma, for example. (he hinted that a Cincinnati vs BYU game would basically be a game for a NY6 invite)
