Message: [QUOTE="DarthGrumpy, post: 1463446, member: 2141"] ESPN is saying the same thing about the XII versus potential SEC and B1G playoff candidates and I missed how ND can cause a wrinkle, too. Basically, the playoff committee will not want to reward an undefeated Baylor or TCU team for schedule 6 combined OCC games that features more FCS games (2) than P5 match-ups (1).

I agree that if Ole Miss did win the SEC and Memphis remains undefeated, Memphis will be left out and a lot of folks outside of the SEC and Bristol will not be happy. Could push 1) the playoffs into an 8 team structure quicker than expected, which is where it should be, or 2) the XII will take Memphis and hope for the best. [/QUOTE]
