Message: [QUOTE="OrangeXtreme, post: 2807415, member: 41"] [MEDIA=twitter]1068627238596345858[/MEDIA] [I]A Texas win on Saturday would earn it a spot in the Sugar Bowl and likely keep Oklahoma (currently ranked fifth) out of the College Football Playoff picture. Should Oklahoma lose but still qualify for a New Year’s Six bowl by staying in the Top 12 of the final CFP poll, No. 16 West Virginia and No. 23 Iowa State would be the two highest-ranked Big 12 teams eligible for Camping World Bowl consideration.[/I] [I]The Camping World Bowl would then pick second behind the Alamo Bowl once all the CFP bowls have been assigned.[/I] [I]If Oklahoma wins, it would remain a candidate for a spot in a College Football Playoff semifinal and could potentially enter the Top 4 if Clemson or the SEC Championship Game loser falls out. Should Oklahoma secure a semifinal berth, the Sugar Bowl would select the next highest-ranked Big 12 team to fill its Big 12 vacancy before the Alamo and Camping World Bowls make their picks.[/I] [I]Whether the Sugar Bowl team in that scenario is Texas, West Virginia or Iowa State depends on how the committee ranks the teams in the final poll.[/I] [I]A win for Pittsburgh this weekend would knock Clemson out of the College Football Playoff semifinals and put the Panthers in the Fiesta Bowl or Peach Bowl as a displaced conference champion.[/I] [I]This outcome would likely not impact Camping World Bowl team selections, however, it could shift the VRBO Citrus Bowl’s pick window by taking away an at-large bid that would have otherwise been available for a Big Ten or SEC team in the latter part of the Top 12.[/I] [I]If Clemson were to defeat Pitt, on the other hand, the Tigers would move on to a College Football Playoff semifinal game while Pitt would fall to 7-6 on the year, leaving No. 20 Syracuse and North Carolina State as the two highest-ranked teams in the Camping World Bowl pick window.[/I] [/QUOTE]
