Muskie playoff update
This years rankings, next year’s realignment, 5-7 with byes for the P4 champs:
Rose Bowl Bracket:
1 Ohio St vs winner of 8 Ole Miss @ 7 Texas
Fiesta Bowl Bracket:
15 Oklahoma St vs winner of 12 Oregon St @ 3 Michigan
Sugar Bowl Bracket:
2 Georgia vs winner of 9 Alabama @ 6 Oregon
Orange Bowl Bracket:
4 Florida St vs winner of 10 Penn St @ 5 Washington
Again, I think with a 2024 schedule, one of 15 Okla St, 16 Kansas, 18 Utah, 21 Arizona, or 25 Kansas St is undefeated or has 1 loss and ranked a lot higher than 15.

As realignment currently stands, I would be shocked if Oregon State got an AQ bid by virtue of winning the P2. Assuming the P2 has some scheduling partnership with the MWC short of a full merger, and remains as a nominal conference next year, I believe the only access the P2 members would have to the CFP would be through the at-large process.
With that in mind, sub Tulane for Oregon State, although if it's still a 6+6 format, sub Air Force (?) for Oregon State and Tulane for Penn State.

I’m making the presumption that Ore St & Wash St play the season with the MWC, they win the conference, and claim the G5 autoberth
