G5 battle for NY6

[Jacob81]

So "rankings do matter"

For clarification, does the g5 need to be ranked (in the top 25 in CFP rankings) to qualify or is it the g5 that has the highest ranking number under that matrix (like no 29)?

The current system I believe the ny6 spot is for the highest ranked g5 champ but must be ranked in the top 12 or 16. I don’t remember which one.

In the future 12 team playoff the highest ranked g5 champ gets the spot regardless of ranking position.

There is no requirement to be ranked inside the top 12 or 16 to qualify.

"When not hosting Playoff Semifinals, the Cotton, Fiesta and Peach bowls will welcome the highest-ranked teams, any displaced conference champions, and the top-ranked champion from a non-contract conference. The highest-ranked available teams will fill any other berths. The selection committee will make the pairings."

The shame is if the Cajuns had played last year’s Florida state team with Cincinnati in the playoffs it may have been enough to get an at large bid to a new year’s 6 bowl.

Even with Cincy in the playoffs, we weren't getting a NY6 invite. They weren't required to take us.
