There is a doomsday scenario brewing in the ACC. If Duke wins out they will be in the Championship game. If they win the conference championship there is no guarantee the ACC would get a bid because Duke would not be ranked and the way the CFP is worded, it’s the highest ranked 5 conference champions with bids. We could see two Group of 5 teams get automatic bids if that happens.

Believe it's the 4 P4 Conference champions and the highest ranked Group of 5 champion. ACC Champion gets in no matter if they're ranked or not.

Not true. It’s the 5 highest ranked conference champions. Says nothing about Power 4. Everyone just assumes the Power 4 are guaranteed but that isn’t the case. If you are a FBS school and win a conference championship then you are eligible for an automatic bid as long as you are one of the highest ranked 5 conference champions.

🤷🤷🤷 I really don't care but makes zero sense... All 4 power 4 conferences wouldn't have agreed to this format if a conference wasn't guaranteed at least 1 team in...but we will see... Also say SOS matters when at large are chosen... How's that going for ya..?

We don’t know what the pool of at-large teams will be at this point since there are two more weeks after this one so until championship games we won’t know.
