This is reality.

Michigan State squeaking by Penn State sealed off the last possibility and provided the certainty the CFP needed to move BYU up a spot and demonstrate good respect optically without consequence or risk.

Yep. I should have said that.

IMO no matter how Baylor loses BYU will jump them based upon the fact that BYU

Except Baylor has head to head on us and committee doesn't punish CCG teams

So does Oregon on tOSU. Oh, wait…

Do losses in CCG really count though? They historically haven't

I’ve seen it both ways when looking at past results. I believe both Iowa and

But they both lost as the higher ranked team

The problem is, Baylor will still get the auto-bid from the BigXII as OSU

The only way anything happens is if Alabama Beats Georgia and stays in the

Yep this is the senario BYU should be routing for.

Unless Alabama beats Georgia

Seems to me all that does is rearrange the top 4. UGA still would be in.

Bluforever

11/30/21 8:28pm

That OSU wouldn't get into the top 4 even if they trounce Baylor.

They would pass Cincy I think.

None of the ESPN guys last night thought so, reminder that cincy also plays a

Wouldn't it be easier just to keep Oklahoma ahead of BYU rather than scheming...

Exactly they could easily justify Iowa, OU, Pitt, and WF above us but they dont

BYUFootballisBack

11/30/21 8:32pm

I think that was the OP's point. They didn't need anyone else higher.

hebercreeper

11/30/21 8:33pm

So they risked making themselves look dumb in the event they had to drop us to

The committee will try to keep the money inside the P5 system within reason.

hebercreeper

11/30/21 8:57pm

I agree with this. The committee isn’t anti G5 teams but they are anti G5

cougsareforreal

Notre Dame is P5 due to their ACC scheduling agreement

If Mich St had lost to Penn St, Iowa would be #11

RGGeemer

11/30/21 8:37pm

Lol if thats true than why not have Iowa at 12, it makes no sense...

BYUFootballisBack

11/30/21 8:39pm

Its not a conspiracy, the teams above us all deserve to be above us or at least

BYUFootballisBack

11/30/21 8:30pm

They’ve been plenty fair to BYU

HONOMO

Yep

RGGeemer

11/30/21 8:36pm

If Cincy loses they are ineligible for the G5 spot. Must be a conference

katmai32

11/30/21 9:08pm

Do you honestly think they’d openly discuss something like that?

HONOMO

11/30/21 9:46pm

I imagine it going like this: "How about BYU?" "Good season, but NY6 games

RGGeemer

11/30/21 10:03pm

Can’t we just give the ACC spot to ND and call it good?
