Someone help me understand why we are more likely to make the playoff in this model than Bama.Wait WHAT???We'd be conference champs, with the third best win of the season (LSU over Georgia and Purdue over Michigan being the top two). We'd definitely be in the top 6 in this scenario. We'd have to beat TCU by a million for us to pass them. I think they're pretty close to being a lock, win or lose.The scenario I screenshot doesn't have Michigan or Georgia losing

If Tulane wins the AAC on Saturday, do they lock up a NY6 bowl as well?
as long as Texas doesn't jump us, which I don't think can/will happen

The stipulation is the team with the better conference record. We’re in no matter what.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm too gunshy to buy non-refundable hotels this week I guess I'm saying.
https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2022-college-football-predictions/Only a 33% chance of TCU making the playoffs. Given that there is some chance for them to lose and still get in, that means they think there is about a 1/4 chance they beat us. Sounds about right.

KSU Sugar Bowl travel packages have gone live. https://k-statesportstours.com/event/sugar-bowl/Am I the only one who thinks they kind of suck? We booked a nice looking hotel near a cool looking area of the French Quarter and it was less than $1000 for both nights. Even the "land only" options are priced starting at $1300 PER PERSON. No way the pregame events are that baller.(The chartered airfare option seems only decent IF you live in MHK)

Sounds about right.they have the % chances listed for each game. the KSU vs TCU game is 43% / 57%, respectively

I'm not sure if/how it'd be bowl-related, but I've never heard more KSU football talk out here than last night and today with UW people super mad about being ranked behind KSU and PSU (and more relevantly, Utah).
