Maybe. I don’t know if they’re ranked top 12 even winning that game, and I don’t think they would have had that record in a conference. Army football was so bad when they were in the CUSA. I think they may value the schedule control.


It was at #4 Oklahoma...that game would have absolutely made a statement. Army was coming off of a 10-3 season in which they finished ranked #25 the season before, so they already had some good press. If they beat #4 Oklahoma, they would have made a huge move upward. Maybe they make the playoffs, maybe the dont, but the one thing nobody can deny is that they would have been in the mix...which is what this playoff is designed to do. Get used to it. Its going to be fun.

I bet the committee lowers the G5 glass ceiling

You’ll never see more than 1 G5 in the top 12

Notre Dame will handle it by being selected for the 12 team playoff in every single season.
