The rankings I can get behind being 1-12 vs auto byes. But I also do not hate it. You didnt win the gd conference you are in, why should you get a bye? I dont care if they are much better, thats another hypothetical -- whereas I know FOR SURE, you arent the best team in your own conference and they are...

I get that too but also most have trouble naming the teams in Boise States conference while SEC added Texas and Big 10 Oregon.

But I’ll be all in…to this day Boise St over Oklahoma back then is maybe my all-time favorite bowl game.

We know:

1. Oregon

2. Georgia

Likely:

3. Boise St

4. Arizona St

Questions:

5. Notre Dame or Texas? Texas kinda got hosed it felt but looking at résumé’s not sure Texas has the advantage. Texas at #5 avoids first round Bama SEC matchup. I’ll guess Texas at #5…unless they put Bama #12.

6. Whoever isn’t the 5

7. I thought Ohio St but maybe they put Penn St there despite the buckeyes winning at PSU. I think Ohio St

8. Penn St….before the game was competitive I had Tennessee here, but I think PSU

9. Tennessee

10. Indiana 

11. I think they might give Clemson the love and show the importance of winning conference championship ….so Clemson the #11 and that’ll make Texas the #6

12. Alabama 

I just don’t think they’ll square up Texas and Bama…but Bama should be above Clemson and Texas should probably be above ND

ND is going to have a good path if I’m wrong. ND vs Clemson then Boise St
