Hardly, if any. I guess they’re given the 6 at large teams and then round robin

And select that way.

The committee qualifies the teams for the ny6

The fiesta bowl can’t take BYU if they aren’t “ranked” high enough

The ny6 bowls don’t get to choose who they take- they’re told

No say at all?

They can choose from among the qualified teams but they have 0 say in who

What are the qualifications again?

The CFP decides who is qualifed, not the bowls

I'd be surprised if the committee wasn't at least somewhat aware of their

False. The committee chooses the matchups and who is in the bowls. The teams

That’s what I said. They take them out of the qualifying pool of the top

travelcoug

Where you are wrong is with the "pool of top 12". There is no such thing.

jreid191

Those are the eligible teams. There is such a Thing

From the CFB Playoff website regarding selection criteria:

Last year Barta said they consult with stakeholders on that. So I think they have a voice in it.

Bowls will let the committee know their preference of who they want from the

The Sugar Bowl is Big 12 vs SEC. The Rose Bowl is PAC vs Big 10. The ACC gets a team in to either the Peach or Fiesta

TCuz

This. Committee also picks the matchup for Fiesta and Peach, though this bowls

BYU would draw locally. But would not fill the hotels and bars like other teams.

Utefaninenemyland

11/26/21 9:42am

Hotels and restaurants yes it would. You’re right on the bars though but no biggie.

Turnpike Lane

11/26/21 9:45am

I don’t believe BYU would fill the hotels. I think they would get alot of fans

Utefaninenemyland

11/26/21 10:04am

You couldn’t be more wrong. BYU would absolutely fill hotels. BYU fans would fly in from all over.

rainorsnow

11/26/21 10:13am

Knowing my history on all things, I could be more wrong.

Utefaninenemyland

11/26/21 11:24am

You’re so wrong about the hotels. BYU would fill them up in droves.

TempeCoug

11/26/21 11:12am

I’m not taking shots. I just believe you would sell a lot of tickets locally

Utefaninenemyland

11/26/21 11:26am

BYU would even outsell Notre Dame in tickets if it were BYU-ND in the Fiesta.

rainorsnow

11/26/21 11:33am

Definitely wrong, all the hotels in vegas were filled with BYU fans during our last game there. Same for a Bowl Game

Ohio State (and possibly Wisconsin) may be the only team that could outsell BYU in Fiesta Bowl tickets this year.

rainorsnow

11/26/21 12:04pm

I've been to a lot of BYU bowl games. Hotel rooms are hard to come by.

shakarocks

The number of Ute fans that would travel for a byu game will fill the bars

GlutealGuy

Especially if we win the game!

I’m involved with the Fiesta Bowl- the CFP decides who comes- we do not get to select

Cougs1

11/26/21 11:48am

But does the committee take into account financial considerations?

UNLVcougar

11/26/21 11:52am

I hope not. That would be as bad as considering name value or recruiting rankings in deciding who gets to play for title

krindorr

11/26/21 12:01pm

But they do all of that

GlutealGuy

11/26/21 1:29pm

And I'm a fan of exactly none of it

krindorr

11/26/21 2:36pm

No in fact their have been times where we voiced a preference for regional team that would have a bigger $$ not granted

Cougs1

BYU in Arizona is a sellout. Every time

ChandlerAZCoug

11/26/21 1:11pm

I II would think that all NY6 options would be a sellout this year
