exactly. Mid season polls are just so we all have something to talk about. The Only one that truly matters is the 'FINAL' poll.
That depends on FSU, because they will be #1 if they finish up 13-0. Still, we will be no worse than second if we win out.
Second might be better since we would be in NOLA, FSU being in Pasadena as the 1 seed.
Bingo. We aren't a "bubble" team by any stretch of the imagination, nor can we even possibly become one. We either win out, in which case we're a guaranteed lock to make it in, or we drop a game somewhere, in which case we have zero chance. For all intents and purposes, what the Committee does or does not think of us is essentially irrelevant, because we fully control our own destiny for better or for worse.
I thought it was 1st place gets closest venue as long as it is not in the same state. Could be wrong but its what Ive read and heard. so it would be FSU vs TCU in the Sugar and Bama vs Oregon in the rose if all win out.
I hadn't forgotten about FSU, but how could we NOT jump FSU after presumably beating #15 LSU, #3 Auburn, and #1 miss state? That body of work wouldn't put us on top simply because we have a 1 where they have a 0? And if quality of wins is as important as we think it is to the committee members, we beat WVU better than FSU beat Okie State, and WVU beat Okie State like a orange headed step child. So ya. There's that arguement too.
