What we need to happen (by team, in order by current rankings), in order for these teams to be guaranteed to be/stay below us.
We need at least 1 of the 2-4 scenarios to happen so we can move into top 4.
To be comfortable, we need all of the 6-9 to occur too, unless more than 1 of the 2-4 do, in which case we'd move up 2 and able to handle being hopped from below by one of the 6-9 teams.
- (2) Ohio State
- Lose to Michigan by 14
- They will drop below us, for the same reason they were below us in Week 1 CFP rankings
- (3) Michigan
- Lose by any amount to Ohio State
- Beat Ohio State and lose conference championship to weak BIG West team.
- Both scenarios will drop them below us
- (4) TCU
- (6) Oregon
- (7) LSU
- (8) USC
- (9) Clemson and below:
