1- Indiana; 2- Ohio State; 3- Georgia; 4- Texas Tech; 5- Oregon; 6- Ole Miss; 7- Texas A&M; 8- Oklahoma; 9- Notre Dame; 10-Alabama; 11- Tulane and 12- James Madison.
 
Byes: 1. IU 2. UGA 3. OSU 4. Texas Tech

1st Round:
5. Oregon vs 12. James Madison
6. Ole Miss vs 11. Tulane
7. Texas A&M vs 10. Miami
8. Oklahoma vs 9. Notre Dame
 
Current Odds to make the CFP-

ND -1000
Bama - 300
Miami +140
Duke + 2000
 
1- Indiana; 2- Ohio State; 3- Georgia; 4- Texas Tech; 5- Oregon; 6- Ole Miss; 7- Texas A&M; 8- Oklahoma; 9- Notre Dame; 10-Alabama; 11- Tulane and 12- James Madison.
I think Miami-9; ND-10; Alabama out.
 
You cant put a 5 loss team in.
There’s a scenario where they move Duke above JMU (#25) in the rankings and thereby Duke gets the automatic bid as the 5th highest conference champion. I think it’s a longshot but even Vegas has established odds it could happen.

You knew vegas would establish odds on it. The committee will get torched if they put a 5 loss team in the field.
 
I’m a pessimist so… no acc team makes it, leading to the eventual collapse of the acc (Miami, nc, Clemson, fsu leaving)… may take a few yrs… and as Syracuse fans were left out in the cold. It’s my nightmare but it looks increasingly more likely

This is exactly how I have it too.

I think this is spot on.

I am not pessimistic about THIS leading to the collapse of the ACC.

The problem we have is that FSU and Clemson are too good for the ACC (and for the B10/SEC for that matter).
 
I know that this isn’t a good look for the ACC it’s why teams want to leave. They should really expand this to 16 teams
 
I think Ole Miss might drop. Really they should be the last team in. They played nobody OOC and beat only Oklahoma in conference. Oh and they lost their HC. They have no business being ranked where they are. Why are they ahead of A&M?

JMU at Oregon will anyone watch? Boise, Duke, and possibly Western Michigan are better than them.

Disagree about the expansion. No matter how many teams get in, there will always be the argument that there should be space for 1 more team. I actually like how each game in CFB is crucial during the regular season.

The ACC beat up on themselves all year. Miami is probably the most talented team and should have been in the conference championship game.

Yea, I kind of wonder if lower ratings will eliminate the JMUs, Tulane's getting in the future.

Those teams can’t even get in to the ACC championship game but they think they are going to go compete in the BIG or SEC on a regular basis? I realize it’s all about the money.

Lot of casual eyes, myself included, would be watching and cheering for JMU same way as Cinderella teams during March Madness. Lest we forget Boise State years back doing the lord's work and beating Oklahoma, etc.
 
Duke has no business getting in. JMU will bring just as many eyes as Duke. ND is in and I bet beats Indiana in the 2nd round. Bama should not be in.
