Jerryworld gets the first CFP game. The Rose and Sugar Bowls host the first semi-final games. The Cotton and Orange get the next two. The Fiesta and Chic-fil-A get the next two. Then it is back to the Rose and Sugar.

Remember that a "committee" of an unknown number of people will be selecting the teams that play in the semi's. The Big 12 is at a distinct disadvantage because they have no CC game. So if Oregon, Alabama, Ohio State and Florida State all go 12-1 with a win in their CC games, and Texas goes 11-1 because they have no CC game, guess who is "Odd Man Out". As far as SOS is concerned, some teams have a lot of work to do. In 2015, USC goes to Notre Dame and hosts Texas A&M. Oregon hosts Eastern Washington ahnd Georgia State and goes to Michigan State. LSU hosts Jacksonville State, Arizona State, and Eastern Michiigan. Now who has the toughest schedule and who has the easiest?
