CFP Rankings

4 of 5 top spots to B1G.

 

#1 Oregon

#2 tOSU

#3 Texas

#4 Penn St

#5 Indiana 

 

It won't stay that way but sometimes you gotta live in the moment.

Boise State is ranked higher than a Big 12 team. 

 

Soooo... As it stands right now they get the Bye. 

 

So the Big 12 is a G5 conference now? Only paid more. 

 

This will create an uproar for sure.

Boise St's one loss was to the #1 team, in their (our) house, by a FG. They've earned that #12 spot and maybe the first round bye. At the very least they deserve to be in the playoff.

Andy and Ari on their podcast tonight are half joking around that tOSU and Oregon should both try and lose on purpose in the CCG to get the 5 Seed.

That would make for a strange CCG. 

 

Granted I also wouldn't entirely put it past Lanning to game the system that way. But winning the B1G on his first year in the conference would be too freaking epic to pass up.

They need to get rid of the conference winner byes and just give the top 4 teams the byes. 
 

You can still get an autobid if you win your conference.  But there is no way the Big-12 or ACC should be getting a bye this year.
