In that case, USF or UCF will get the nod, because their overall SOS will clearly be stronger than SDSU.

SDSU needs Stanford to be a ranked team at the end of the season so that they count as a signature P5 win. With 4-5 losses, they won't be that.

And no, there's zero chance that SDSU will somehow get in as a "wild card" as well. Even with five theoretical 'at large' bids, an unbeaten G5 that doesn't get the auto-NY6 will not beat out 9-2 P5 teams for those NY6 slots.

Never say never, last year only had eight 1 or 2 loss P5 teams going into bowl season. 2014 had only 8 as well. Last year simply didn't have enough G5 candidates that had good resumes. So maybe we would see more than one in there.

Also, do you think the best from MWC approach AAC for a re-do if it becomes obvious that the committee favors the AAC? It's one thing to think it can happen, its another to actually see it happen in broad daylight for all to see.

I don't see the likes of Boise or SDSU or anyone else approaching the AAC, at least not based on CFP outcomes. If SDSU and UCF both go unbeaten, obviously only one of them can get the NY6 slot so the CFP has to choose somebody. We might as well speculate that if the CFP chooses SDSU, that UCF would seek MWC membership.

Doesn't make sense to me, especially since so far, the CFP hasn't shown any pro-AAC bias at all, we've only gotten the NY6 bid one time in three years, even though we've been the best G5 conference for two of those years, and the expectation when it was created was that we would get it almost every year.

If Boise or SDSU ever seek AAC membership, it would be over $$$, like if we somehow got a $10m per school media deal in 2020. Dollars are the thing that caused both to join the Big East, then leave the AAC, the first time.
