Here we go. 

1. Indiana - as expected 

2. Ohio State 

3. Georgia 

4. Texas Tech 

5. Oregon 

6. Ole Miss - wild

7. Texas A&M

8. Oklahoma 

9. Alabama 

10. Miami 

 

Notre Dame is out

Ole Miss is going to play Tulane and they already beat the crap out of them 

Conference title games are officially meaningless. Bama should’ve dropped. Now there’s what 2 rematches ? Glad ND got left out. Boy oh boy I’d love to see Marcus freeman right now

That just shows how screwed up the system is. Alabama doesn't deserve to be in at 10-3 if byu is out. 

Will Texas play ND?

11. Tulane - rematch from 45-10 earlier this season 

12. James Madison

James Madison and Tulane in a playoff.  LMAO.

System is definitely screwed up ... but 

Bama won at Georgia 

BYU has zilch, and would get dog walked at Georgia 

CFP makes no logic. ACC review has more clarity.

The committee left BYU ahead of Texas. Just complete and utter bullshit man. Truly truly laughable

Sagarin's ratings have James Madison rated #28 and Tulane at #46.  Those aren't even top 25 teams, much less one of the 12 best.

True, but if you're going to penalize byu by leaving them out due to a ccg loss then do the same with bama. Texas's record is a better 3 loss team, and should have been in over bama after that loss. The whole, "they beat Georgia", well Texas has beat a&m, ou, and vandy. Plus let's not forget that fsu loss is worse than Florida. 

Including smaller schools makes sense in basketball not football. Scrap this model
