Playoff Scenarios

[Creed]

Just cause I am bored I paired the past BCS rankings 1-4 with future playoff sites. I think there's going to be some issues with sites that may have to be re considered in the future. My understanding is they will give preference to the #1 team only on the location.

2013 (using 2014)

# 1 FSU vs #4 MSU at Sugar Bowl

#2 Auburn vs #3 Alabama at Rose Bowl - odd location for these teams and could be attendance issues.

2012 (using 2015 sites)

#1 ND vs #4 Oregon at Cotton Bowl (assumed this is better for ND)

#2 Alabama vs #3 Florida at Orange Bowl (UF gets advantage?)

2011 (using 2016 sites)

#1 LSU vs #4 Stanford at Peach Bowl Atlanta

# 2 Alabama vs #3 Okie State at Fiesta Bowl

2010 (using 2017 sites)

#1 Auburn vs #4 Stanford at Sugar Bowl

#2 Oregon vs #3 TCU at Rose Bowl

2009 (using 2018 sites)

#1 Alabama vs #4 Cincy at Cotton

#2 Texas vs #3 TCU at Orange

Actually these played out decently. One question I have is in 2009 would Alabama get to decide location or would the committee. Would they put Alabama in Dallas or put a Texas vs TCU in Dallas?

This year I don't know the exact order of teams, but it will be something like:

SEC # 1 team vs SEC # 4 team

SEC #2 team vs SEC #3 team
