Ladies and gentlemen, the Prime effect

[Fight CU]

for now.

big and sec are pushing for more guaranteed spots AND the payout differential is huge and going to get worse. the only way to be sure we don't get left out of the next configuration is getting a big invitation or whatever replaces the big.

sure, if things stay exactly like this, then we could possibly be like Clemson has been in the acc or Texas was in the b12 and so forth. better to go for the sure thing money in the long run if we are able.

also, I think CP can out recruit anyone regardless of conference.

I’d love to see him push for baseball

CP is as big a personality as college football has. Great for videos, articles, interviews. Many love the man.
Colorado is the most hated, much watched program in college football - and many people love us.

I'm not arguing we deserve it, or that it will happen, but if we were to win out and a few other things happened, I could see decision makers, who thought we were #13 or #14, putting us in the top 12, due to the huge commercial effect.

We win out, we will have a home game in Folsom for the CFP.

No. We would need some very unexpected dominoes to fall. It’s not just as simple as win out.

This is college football.

The odds of ISU KSU and BYU not hitting a loss or two, is so low.

Teams that are 8-0 go 10-2 or 9-3 just as often as they go 12-0 or 11-1.

It’s not those three I’m concerned about. I don’t think BYU/ISU go undefeated. I think other 10-2 teams will have a great SOS and would get in before we do.

And it's not just winning out and getting in but we'd have to finish #8 or higher in order to get a home game. If we get in as an at-large it would likely be as #10 or #11

 

[Buffnik]

Our best path is an ISU loss or 2, putting us in the B12 CG. May not get us the bye, either, because Boise State could be ranked higher as a conference champion. Or Army, if they run the AAC and beat Notre Dame.

10-2 could get us the #11 spot
An away game at say Texas?
So much fun, but gotta double lock in Buffs

What needs to happen for us to get in to the conference title game?

So if we finish with 1 loss in conference. And Kansas State loses to Iowa state. If both us and Iowa state have a tiebreaker, they win with a better overall record?

Iowa State beating KState means they’d have the mutual opponent tiebreaker.

We need to win out.
BYU loses to Utah.
KState beats Iowa State.

If we win out and KSU beats ISU

We play BYU, as long as they only lose once.

we stay on this trajectory and there will be a gigantic bronze statue of CP, touch down Jesus style, outside Folsom.

If we win out, it includes a win over BYU - we would be ranked higher than Boise. Army most likely isn’t beating ND. And as much as I root for Army v Navy, I’m going to laugh hysterically when Navy ruins Army’s bid for the AAC.

 

[Bread]

For the CCG sure. I was speaking in reference to Flounder's post saying we could get a home CFP game.

Prior to the better overall record - they would win based on common opponent
- We would have best TT
- They would have best KSU. KSU would have a better record.

It’d be better for BYU just to win out so we’re not in a three way tie.

 

[Shldr2Shldr]

- We would have best TT
- They would have best KSU. KSU would have a better record.

Depending on how some things shake out, if Iowa State beats KSU, it could move the tie breaker to TTU which would be in our favor.

No. Iowa state would just be in and we’d be out.

Head to head opponents, KSU is better than TT.

 

[Da Lama]

I honestly think we need to cool it on the CFP talk. Setting up the dominoes is what Buff Fans do best. 9-3 and a solid bowl game in a nice, warm climate city would be just fine. But hey, that's just me.
