- Georgia beats LSU and both make the CFP.
- Wisconsin loses to OSU but they and Penn State stay ranked ahead of Auburn and Alabama which means the B10 teams go to the Rose and Orange Bowls
- The Citrus is opened up for the ACC and they take ND
- UVa to the Orange, VT to the Camping World Bowl
- Tier 1 would be Wake + 3 of Louisville, Pitt, UNC, FSU, Miami.
- Assume Louisville to Music City
- The Belk, Pinstripe, and Sun would choose between Wake, Pitt, FSU, UNC, and Miami
Even in this scenario, I think it would be tough for Pitt though. I'd think the Pinstripe would take the FSU brand, the Belk would take UNC, and the Sun would get stuck with Wake.
This would leave the Military Bowl to decide between Pitt and Miami.
