Week 12 Rooting Guide — Path to CFP

[SaiyaMan305]

it wouldn't even matter if OSU lost to Michigan. theyre in regardless.

If Michigan only has 2 losses and beats OSU they would get in, it does matter, were rooting for OSU at that point

Bump! We’re up to #15.

USF is now ranked at 23. Helps us a lot.

Teams right ahead of us:

Vandy, Utah, BYU, Oklahoma, Texas. All of those teams can easily lose.

Win out and we’re in, in my opinion. We’ll get the help we need. The hard part is the, you know, winning out part.

agree - Louisville losing would also be helpful (maybe needed)

ChatGPT can be solid but it's wrong about the ND Pitt game

Pitt beating ND this weekend would help miami incredibly

ND beating Pitt doesn't really help us at all since we have to win out (including vs Pitt) anyways

Yeah, I think Pitt beating Notre Lame is best for Miami.

It takes ND out of CFP consideration, and it will improve Pitt’s ranking, to give UM a final quality win opportunity for an at large CFP berth.

It's angling for the ACC Championship game.

For the at large I agree ND losing would be good.

Pitt winning the next two weeks gives us a solid T15 chance the final week. If we were to be 10-2, with wins over ND, USF, and a 9-3 good Pitt team I don’t think a single at large resume would have better wins than ours.

Simplified for both CFP and ACC-CG

Miami wins out.

Week 12 - Next week:
--AL to beat OK - CFP
--GA to beat TX - CFP
--Pitt to beat ND - CFP
----------
--Clemson to beat Louisville - ACC-CG

Week 13 - Following week:
--Pitt to beat GT - CFP
--Cincy to beat BYU - CFP
----------
--Louisville to beat SMU - ACC-CG
--UNC to beat Duke - ACC-CG

Week 14 - Final week:
--TN to beat Vandy - CFP
----------
--VaTech to beat UVA - ACC-CG
--Cal to beat SMU - ACC-CG
--Wake to beat Duke - ACC-CG

Miami will be ranked #9 at that point, because beating a ranked Pitt team should vault Miami over Utah and its **** schedule. Plus, Texas Tech likely gets the one Big 12 spot over BYU anyhow.

We need Clemson, Alabama, and Georgia to win.

We need Pitt to beat ND, it is NOT a conference game. Pitt will not jump over us in the CFP if we beat them.

The other 4 games would be nice, we WANT those to happen, but we don't NEED those to happen,
