There is now a realistic chance that Ohio State could play the Hoosiers twice and the Ducks thrice this season:


  • Ohio State wins out
  • Oregon wins out
  • Indiana loses to Ohio State but otherwise wins out
  • Ohio State beats Oregon in a rematch in the B1GCG
  • Indiana beats Tennessee
  • Oregon beats Boise
  • Oregon beats BYU
  • Ohio State beats Indiana

By beating Oregon in the B1GCG the Buckeyes would likely swap spots with the Ducks so the Buckeyes would get the #1 seed and the Ducks the #5 seed.  

If #8 Indiana beats #9 Tennessee in Bloomington then Ohio State's first playoff game is a rematch with the Hoosiers.  

If Ohio State wins that while Oregon beats Boise (at home) and BYU in a neutral bowl, then Ohio State's second playoff game (the National Semi-Final) would be their third game of 2024 against Oregon (@Oregon, B1GCG, CFP Semi-Final).

The lesser bowl games will get "NIT'd", heavily, any of them not a playoff game.  Players will broadly opt out I think, at least those with no remaining year.  We'll end up with more FSU-UGA Orange Bowl events.
They might get NIT'd literally.

They could install some sort of a lesser 8-team playoff at some point, for the teams that didn't make the CFP; USC, Nebraska, aTm, etc.

This would make me commit a crime to be imprisoned on purpose, then smear my shit on the walls.

It is somewhat likely UGA and Texas play three times as well.

I appreciate at least a small part of this system because A&M doesn’t deserve to be in at the moment. Feels like a great borderline team.

Wouldn't it be funny if the National Championship Semi-finals ended up being the third games each between Oregon/Ohio State and Georgia/Texas?

I really hope they make tweaks to at least avoid rematches in the first round

The craziest thing I think is if UGA goes 11-1, Oregon loses, and UGA gets ranked #1, but is a 5 seed,
