Disclaimer: I do NOT think we are going 11-1. But just for fun:
If we did go 11-1, we are in really good shape:
Need to move up 6 spots:
Bama/LSU is an elimination game. A 9-3 loser of that game isnt going over 11-1 Pitt.
If Texas loses another before Thanksgiving then their game vs Texas A&M is an elimination game as both would go in at 9-2. Even if Texas is 10-1 by then, a win over A&M knocks them out.
Ole Miss is knocked out if they lose to Georgia on Saturday or another game.
Very likely Iowa State loses 1 of its last 4. But of course, a team like that could beat 12-0 BYU in the B12CG and steal a bid.
Need 2 of these:
Need IU to lose 2 (OSU/Mich)
ND to lose 1 (at USC or Army?)
PSU to lose to a girls team
Miami to lose 2
Ten to lose 2 (@ UGa, @ Vandy)
BYU to lose 2
LSU/Bama winner to lose another game
