gets in to the playoff.
Rose - B1g vs PAC
Sugar - Big12 vs SEC
Fiesta - g5 or at-large vs at-large
Peach - g5 or at-large vs at large
If the ACC champ does not make the CFP, they will occupy one of the remaining at-large spots, leaving only 2 spots open. The only way for BYU to guarantee an at-large spot to the NY6 is to rise to at least 6th. BYU can obviously grab a spot with a lower rank if the team conference affiliations of the teams above them fall just right.
If the AP rankings today were final, you'd get:
Orange: #1 Bama vs #4 Oklahoma
Cotton: #2 Georgia vs #3 Oregon
Rose: #5 Iowa vs #24 UCLA
Sugar: #14 Iowa St vs #7 Texas A&M
Fiesta/Peach: #6 Penn St./#8 Cincinnati/#9 Clemson/#10 Ohio St.
