8 Oklahoma, 9 Notre Dame, 10 Alabama, 11 Tulane, 12 James Madison
Miami vs Vanderbilt in the Gator bowl

Of course, money is the major consideration. That said, with the current CFP structure there will be many conference championship participants who were a playoff lock before the game and then get that dreaded second or third loss in the game and are out. If that scenario happens to The Big Dogs frequently enough there is a window for change.
Albeit that window may be to restructure things such that SEC or Big 10 schools with three losses are obviously superior and more deserving. That is what most would expect. It feels in the gut like each successive year could bring meaningful changes until it all collapses under its own weight. To me mainly due to the problems created by “super conferences” on themselves. (Probably should have been a group effort to save the Pac 10 rather than savage them to pieces.)
IMHO should they let ‘Bama in then try to route Miami to the Gator Bowl, Miami’s response should be ..” Since Duke is our ACC Champion and Virginia the runner-up…we decline and suggest one of those two teams go to the Gator Bowl instead !”.
A lotta negativity in this thread…
