Some of the teams not in P4 conferences also have small stadia of course.  One of them might go 13-0 and get into the 5-8 group and have the game somewhere out of town.  Where would Boise go?  This could get entertaining.

In the main, I suspect the nonP4 team to be ranked 12th and get pounded like a red headed step child.  The fifth ranked team may often be stronger than many of the 1-4 host teams.

if michigan is runner up in the B1G and plays vs Cincy in Cincy next year, how many Wolvie fans are gonna be excited

or a game vs Biberty?
This would mean Cincy did NOT win their conference, but was 12-1 I suppose.  I think they'd still move the game out of Nippert stadium if the NFL venue was available.

Nippter is about 35,000, and they have decent local support.  I think they could sell 50,000 tickets at least.

2023 12-team playoff, with 2024 alignment (so yes, a wonky preview):

1 Michigan (B1G Champ) vs winner of 9 Ohio State @ 8 Georgia

4 Arizona (XII Champ) vs winner of 12 Penn State @ 5 Liberty (HS Champs)

3 FSU (ACC Champ) vs winner of 11 Missouri @ 6 Warshington

2 Texas (SEC Champ) vs winner of 10 Oregon @ 7 Alabama

huh, didn't remember Zona being the Big 12 champ

how many Penn St. fans are going to the big game in Biberty?
or are they waiting to spend time and money on the 2nd round game vs the Big 12 champ Zona?

So, Biberty takes Oklahoma's spot here? 

Biberty at Florida State
Ole Miss at Georgia
Penn State at Ohio State
Missouri at Oregon

Somehow, I think the committee would either raise or lower Penn State to avoid that rematch. We ALL know the real reason TCU didn't drop in 2022. We do know this, right?

And there will be two NYD 6 bowls available each year. Does that mean we get Louisville/Oklahoma and Arizona/LSU?

Somehow, I think the committee would swap Louisville for Notre Dame. Just a hunch.

He is using 2024 alignments and making assumptions. 

In 2024 Texas can't be B12 Champions because they'll be in the SEC and Zona is the highest ranked of the teams that will be in the B12 in 2024.

Notre Dame isn't close enough to get swapped in.

Biberty (#23) is in over #12 Oklahoma but the highest ranked team out of what will be the B12 is #14 Arizona so they are in over #11 Ole Miss.

The field is thus the top-10 plus #14 Zona and #23 LibertyBiberty.

Zona (or whoever wins the B12CG) gets a bye because league Champs change:
  • Washington is no longer in the Pac because the B1G killed the Pac so Washington presumably plays a B1GCG against Michigan. We are all assuming that Michigan wins since we saw this game as the CFPCG.
  • Texas is no longer B12 Champion because they are no longer in the B12 and I think we are all just assuming that Texas wins the SECCG but if they don't, just sub in UGA for Texas. Either way, Bama is no longer SEC Champion.
So the four byes go to:
  • B1G Champion #1 Michigan
  • SEC Champion #3 Texas
  • ACC Champion #5 FSU
  • B12 Champion #14 Zona
Then, assuming the 5th best league Champion gets the #5 seed, the first round hosts are:
  • LibertyBiberty
  • Washington
  • Bama
  • Jawja
They host:
  • Ohio State
  • Oregon
  • Mizzou
  • Penn State

I don't think the fifth highest ranked conference champ will be seeded at 5.

As stated in the official announcement by the CFP, the first rounds would take place at either the home field of the higher-seeded team or another site designated by the higher-seeded program during the week of Saturday, Dec. 21.

Although specific game dates have not yet been announced, we can make predictions on how each matchup will appear. Keep in mind that the No. 12 seed will go to Liberty, as the Flames are the sixth highest-ranked conference champion in the final CFP rankings, replacing Oklahoma — a team that finished third in the Big 12 — as the No. 12 team. 

No. 12 Liberty at No. 5 Florida State
No. 11 Ole Miss at No. 6 Georgia
No. 10 Penn State at No. 7 Ohio State
No. 9 Missouri at No. 8 Oregon

It is complicated because there will be less league Champions in 2024 since there will be no Pac.

Two of 2023's top-three league champions (#2 Washington and #3 Texas) will not be in those leagues next year.

Yes, and it's basically not very relevant with all the changes.  One could go back several years and do the "what if" and see how often something weird shows up.  But it's too much work for a hypothetical.

I understand this.
