CFP: early talk of who Benefited (???)

[ChuckyTheGoat]

*TENN dodges the upset - they're in.
*MIA-FL loses - I think they just got knocked out.

There is going to be a mess on the last one or two At-Large bids:
*SOUTH CAROLINA has played well late in the year.
...They were Double Digit Dogs versus Alab/OleMiss but now look like the more appealling at-large bid.

*SMU should feel pretty good (imho).
...11-2 with a loss to Clemson should still get them in.

Count up the at-large bids. Doesn't really add up cleanly.

Bama has the head to head with South Carolina. If SMU loses the ACC title game are they in or do they get jumped? Is Miami in? Feels like it is either Bama, Smu, or Miami. Unless I am missing something

Hi, Sundance. I put my thoughts in this thread:

https://www.sportsbookreview.com/forum/college-football-betting/3741807-my-stab-2024-12-team-playoff-p2.html

The conclusions I came to:
1) SMU has had a great season. I don't think a loss knocks them out.
2) I really view it as 13 teams for 12 slots. If SMU were to beat Clemson, I think South Carolina would get the final slot. Alabama's H2H win over South Carolina was not overwhelming. 2-pt home win, and Gamecocks easily could have won.
