Most likely outcome

  1. Georgia
  2. Michigan State -OR- Ohio State
  3. Oklahoma
  4. Cincinnati
  5. Alabama (loses to Georgia)
  6. Michigan State – OR – Ohio State
  7. Oregon (Loss to Utah or Oregon State)
  8. Notre Dame – At Large
  9. Texas A&M or Ole Miss – At Large
  10. Wake Forest
  11. Baylor -OR- Oklahoma State –
  12. BYU
  13. SEC School
  14. Baylor -OR- Oklahoma State
  15. Michigan (3 losses)

In this scenario, BYU is quite possibly the last at-large bid with the first two going to Notre Dame and Texas A&M. Again, this is totally a projection and the final poll numbers will almost certainly not reflect, or even closely reflect these rankings, but by just taking the path of least resistance, this is probably what we will get.
