Wait until at least 2025

2025 is the year the world comes to an end according to some

Little known rule §17f

"In the event of a full-scale nuclear attack, any team that is the sole remaining division member shall be division champion and division representative in the conference championship game. Any team that is the sole remaining member of the conference shall be declared conference champion."

Being from a smaller population area, we would have a pretty good shot.

We would be screwed. Ft. Bragg (Army), Camp LeJeune (Marines) and Seymour Johnson (Air Force) are all too close and the resulting fall out would irradiate the stadium, rendering it useless.

We would have to wait another 50 or so years till we could even host the championship game!

If all 3 finish with 1 loss in AAC, the 12th game not being played by UCF would be irrelevent, as UC would still have won as it beat UCF h-t-h once Temple was eliminated by overall winning %, so a bit misleading.

It would never get to overall winning percentage. It would be determined by the highest CFP ranking in the November 20 ranking:

g. If still tied, if one team was ranked in the latest available CFP Selection Committee rankings and wins in the final weekend of the Conference regular season, they will be declared the division champion, If in that same scenario, the team that was the highest-ranked team in the latest available CFP Selection Committee rankings loses in the final weekend of the Conference regular season, a composite average of selected computer rankings (Anderson & Hester, Billingsley, Colley and Wolfe) will be used to
determine the division champion;
h. If there are multiple teams ranked in the latest available CFP Selection Committee rankings, the highest-ranked team that wins in the final weekend of the Conference regular season will be declared the division champion;
i. If none of the ranked teams win in the final weekend of the Conference regular season, a composite average of selected computer rankings (Anderson & Hester, Billingsley, Colley and Wolfe) after all games conclude the final weekend of the Conference regular season will be used to determine the division champion;
