Autobid vs not. Academics as well. I don’t see it.

Pee Wee Reese

Did the Pac lose its autobid officially? I was wondering about that.

I don't think there are autobids anymore

Huge Manatee

The Top 5 conference champs in the rankings get auto bids. This was intended to

So basically the Pac is trying to steal that last autobid spot away from G5

runnincoug

Yes, and not just autobid. The P4 champs get the top 4 playoff spots, the

Incorrect. It's the top four champs - no other automatic affiliation

Nah, should bring in more schools with State in their name for the new PAC-State conference.
