Two months ago who would have thought this topic would even be discussed?
Hopefully the teams is ignoring CB and focusing on AZ.

I hadn't really considered this until today. But would BYU need to win the Big12

The Big12 could get 3 teams in the CFP if Kstate, BYU, and ISU go undefeated the

could, but would they? I would be shocked with 3 Big12 teams.

I think most would be shocked with 3 Big 12 teams, because they don't trust any

The odds are stacked against the outcome, but a 1 loss B12

Even a 2 loss team with 11 wins is likely to get in. Highly unlikely an 11 win
NYC and Japan

Or ISU, BYU, and CU could all be undefeated in conference play.

There are a lot of other factors - namely what other teams in the country do.

To be safe a team needs to be in the top 10 maybe 11 in rankings for an at large spot.

Last year, the #11 team would have been the last at-large bid. That team was

I think 11-2 (lose CCG) probably gets you in. 10-2 is risky.
NYC and Japan

Every 11-win P5 team since the start of the CFP has finished in the top 11.

I don't think that the Big 12 will be given an at-large bid
BYU Fan

It could happen based on circumstances
Belboz

It could but when push comes to shove, the Big 12 will get excluded
BYU Fan
Oct 3, 10:21am
It probably depends on other circumstances. I think a 1 loss Utah team
Belboz
Oct 3, 10:28am
But to get an at-large bid, Utah would be at best 11-2
BYU Fan
Oct 3, 10:30am
that was a bad one. How about Iowa State or BYU?
Belboz
Oct 3, 10:40am
It's certainly possible and would probably be deserved at 12-1

Looking back 5 season (skipping Covid year), 100% of teams with 11-2 records or

11 wins basically guarantees BYU a top-10 CFP ranking and thus a likely CFP bid
Doogal McCougar
Oct 3, 10:14am
10-2 in the regular season puts them in the discussion for an at-large bid, but
jreid191
Oct 3, 10:19am
Isn't most likely that if the B12 gets 2 teams in, it will be the winner and loser of the conference championship game?
HarlemCoug
Oct 3, 10:19am
Absolutely. Losing in the CCG typically doesn't result in a drop in ranking

Oct 3, 10:26am
There are 7 at large bids available. Notre Dame just has to be decent and they

There is a 0% chance any 8-4 or 9-3 team gets in over any 11-1 P4 team

There are currently 7 non-Big12 teams with 1 loss ranked ahead of BYU and all

Every 11-win P4 will almost for sure make the playoff. The question comes to

I agree on 8 win teams, 9 win teams are going to depend on who it is

Except for the fact that a 9-win team from SEC/B1G has literally NEVER been

You're making the mistake of equating P5 with the current P2+2. The better
NOCAL_YFAN
Oct 3, 11:50am
In that case we have a sample size of 0. Only close comparison in that case
jreid191
Oct 3, 12:29pm
You're still stuck in drawing equivalence to the past P5. The game has changed
NOCAL_YFAN
Oct 3, 5:58pm
Especially since the +2 will no longer have Texas, OU, and USC to get resume

I think it is a generally safe assumption to say 11 wins or conference champion
