Big12 Spoiler

The Big 12 highest ranked team is 16 (ASU, BYU is 19)

The Big 12 champ gets an auto bid...

That is going to bump someone out...

We need to win and move up to 11 or better or we are likely screwed...

WIN.

Big 12 does not get an auto bid

No conference gets an auto bid. The top 5 ranked conference champs get an auto bid. If Tulane or army are ranked higher than the big 12 champ in 2 weeks the big 12 will be left out.

But you are correct that the 12 seed is reserved to a 5th conference champ which is why Clemson is required to jump one more team not named Boise State to make it in.

"Top 5 ranked conference champs:

Must be a Conference Champ

there are 4 eligible conferences right? So the B12 Champ gets a spot (regardless of rank), as does the ACC, Big10 and SEC.

So your take is the Big-12 gets left out?

Pac-12 does not qualify correct?

I'm confused.

Pac12 does not count.

But the MWC, AAC, Sun Belt, MAC and any others do.

The 4 highest ranked conference champions get a bye. The next highest ranked conference champ is guaranteed admission. This is not tied to any conference.

Big12 can still be passed by the AAC. Top 4 would be B1G, SEC, ACC, MWC and AAC would be the 5th.

There are like 10 eligible conferences. None of them gets an auto-bid. Not even the SEC

True. If SMU loses to Miami they're out. That would move #10, 11 and #12 all up one spot leaving the 12th spot to ASU.

We dont know that for sure.

No one knows how much the committee will
Punish conference championship losses.

To be fair their conference should get one team in before the ACC gets three in.
