I think a handful of spots in any single metric is trivial. But that's not the case here. It's a handful of spots in every single metric. Other than H2H, Miami has no current advantage over ND in the committee's stated criteria. Again, that could change the next 2 weeks.

Other than BEATING THEM the Canes have no current advantage over ND.

Mateer has not won any games for OU. Jordan Travis put that team on his back every week. It’s a bit different. Also I think they would keep them out.

OU has no chance of competing in the playoffs without Mateer. But that’s beside the point.

Correct. The committee has stated that H2H is a tiebreaker. Said differently, we're not currently tied with them so H2H doesn't enter the equation.

There are so many factors that should eventually put us ahead of ND. We played and won H2H, and have 4 common opponents. If we win out and win convincingly, then there isn’t 1 metric that ND has over us. The committee can’t put them in over us without showing their completely bias if we handle business.

If head to head isn’t close to their top criteria when both teams have identical records and near identical metrics, then it’s the CFP basically saying the games don’t matter.

It's possible. But if we struggle vs Pitt and they dominate their last 2 opponents, not so sure.

It is, but we will then be depending on the VA to lose to VT. We would be left out otherwise.

Worth noting VT has lost to UVA just once in the last 21 years and that one win was 2019, the year UVA won the esteemed Costal. Even that one win was a tough get for the Cavs. Seems like VT really wants that Commonwealth Cup.

Edit: TheOGCane beat me to this sorry.

I would recommend dropping the logic that if we win out we’re in. Don’t care if we beat VT 56-3 and Pitt 66-7. It’s gonna take a ton of help and chaos in the top 12 for us to make it.

I think Vandy loses. They may even drop the Kentucky game. Beyond that, we would have to naturally hop Utah with style points and they limp by K State or Kansas, hope they take some consideration into BYU getting blown out in their conference championship, and Oklahoma or Bama dropping a game. Hopefully that SEC calling card about how it’s a dog fight every week comes to fruition. They’ll cook it up so Bama and Oklahoma can make it to get their $ and the most possible teams in.

That’s a lot that has to happen and doubt we’re jumping any of those teams artificially without them losing a game. They haven’t done it yet

Us and USC should jump Utah and Vandy this week. Honestly BYU too....
