pretty depressing that we haven't had a top 10 finish this century. OTOH, highlights how great of a position we are in after just two years in the P4.

We should definitely pass: Tenn, IU, SMU, Bama, South Carolina, Miami. Moving us up to #11 at the lowest.

BSU is going to be close, but our pummeling of Colorado and their convincing loss leaving us with the same records is likely to propel us past them, especially given widespread sentiment that we got job by the CFP rankings. IF ASU were to get rocked by Texas they might well drop past us but it would have to be a "got exposed" type loss given that we lost to them head to head. It seems unlikely that Ole Miss loses to Duke, but you never know.

I can't see us passing any of the others left in the field barring some kind of crazy meltdown loss, but even if that happens, unlikely. Best guess is we finish #10. Holding out hope for #9.
