An undefeated P4 team would almost certainly earn at at large bid
It could happen but I think the committee would be intent on not repeating an FSU situation like last year. Much easier to remedy that with 7 at large bids.

This isn’t ideal… it’s possible for BYU, Iowa State and Colorado to go undefeated in conference.

Probably either flip 3 coins simultaneously and odd man out is out of the CC

That should favor us (at least for now) since KSU, Utah, Arizona, and maybe OkSt

How many 12-1 P5 teams have not been ranked top 12 ever?

2 loss p5 teams don't always make it, but most of the time they are still top 12

The caveat to this is that #12 would have been left out most years as the G5

So the lowest a 1-loss P5 team has been ranked is #7 but some think a 1-loss

A 2 loss Big12 team likely only gets in if they win the CCG
