OU is in
Iowa/MSU is in
Lets assume Bama takes care of the Gators
If UNC beats Clemson, they would be the 9-0 ACC champ with a 12 game winning streak. However, Clemson would be their only Top 25 win. Their only other decent wins were over Pitt, Miami, Duke and NCSU, teams that would rank in the 30s or 40s. Is that enough?
If Stanford beats USC, they'd be 11-2 with better wins.
OSU would be 11-1 but, like UNC a weak schedule with only one good win.
I personally think UNC is in with a win. I dont see how you can take a 2 loss Stanford over them even though they had the tougher schedule or OSU, a team with a similar resume who didnt win their division.
