is short: Iowa st gets one of the spots for sure. For the other spot the options are (in order of last weeks AP votes: Arkansas (won vs FCS, 3 loses, but big time wins), BYU (won ugly in prime time, 2 losses, 4-0 v PAC-12), Oregon st (2 losses, beat Utah), UVa (2 losses, offensive stats will catch voter eye, won ugly on obscure network), Houston (1 loss, weaker schedule, no marquee wins).
