This shit is all about conference representation in the playoffs and I feel like this weekend comes down to ACC vs. Big 12.
If the top 4 win out, the Big 12 is left out.
If Georgia loses, they slide out of the top 4 and Bama moves up because they beat the two-time defending champion and won the SEC. The fact that we beat their asses in Tuscaloosa by double digits won't mean shit to this committee.
If Michigan loses, they slide out of the top 4 and Ohio State moves up. It's why they are ahead of us despite both our losses coming to our bitter rivals and us having more Top 25 wins.
If Washington loses, they slide out and Oregon takes their spot. No need to rehash why Oregon being ahead of us is bullshit.
That leaves Texas and FSU.
If FSU wins, they are in regardless of what Texas does. I don't see the committee leaving out an undefeated Power 5 team.
A FSU loss and a Texas win, we are in.
If both FSU and Texas lose, the last remaining spot probably goes to another 11-1 team that lost their conference championship or didn't play (Ohio State).
