"in front of CFP committee member Dan Radakovich, the Clemson AD" …Looks like Aliquippa's has influence on Pitt Fate for Orlando???? Love to see PITT-WVU Game!
EXCERPTS:
..............Pitt, which is in a tie for 24th with South Florida in the AP Top 25, is the fifth-highest ACC team in the CFP rankings, after No. 3 Clemson, No. 12 Florida State, No. 13 Louisville and No. 23 Virginia Tech. (By the way, that’s precisely how I listed all five ACC schools on my AP Top 25 ballot.)...............How can Pitt go to Orlando for a possible Backyard Brawl Bowl with West Virginia?........Virginia Tech is only two slots ahead of Pitt. If it loses big to Clemson on Saturday night, could idle Pitt vault ahead of the Hokies in the final CFP rankings Sunday?............I’m hearing the Orlando Chamber of Commerce likes Pitt, which hasn’t played a postseason game in that city since 2001 and is opening up some national eyes with its amazing ability to score points.The 300-person (that’s right, 300 people in one room) Florida Citrus Sports committee is scheduled to meet Wednesday to discuss the Citrus and RA games.If enough of them are infatuated by Pitt …And if they are convinced the Panthers will bring lots of tourists to Orlando …And if Virginia Tech is embarrassed by Clemson, a team Pitt defeated in Death Valley in front of CFP committee member Dan Radakovich, the Clemson AD

The CFP ranking of Pitt and Virginia Tech will play almost no part in determining bowl positioning. Tickets sold and TV ratings are all that matters.

Seems like its Lou, VT, and Pitt for the 2 Orlando games.

I cant figure out why there isn't more talk of a Miami vs Florida Citrus Bowl. That would be an enormous game.
