This isn't theoretical. It's happened 5 times in the past 12 years:

2009 - MWC champ TCU was #4 and WAC champ Boise was #6
2010 - MWC champ TCU was #3
2018 - AAC champ UCF was #7 in the AP and coach's polls
2020 - AAC champ Cincinnati was #6 in the AP and coach's polls

I guess I would say that if a G5 team was in the top 7 and thus captured an at-large bid to the CFP, then their spot in the play in would go to the next highest qualified at-large team. It still benefits the G5 team (and league) by getting them further into the tournament, and opens up a spot for the next most deserving team. If any of those at-large teams were G5 (or other independent teams), they'd certainly be able to fill those spots.
