Yes, if these were the final rankings of 2024, LSU would be in the 12 team playoff.

nope, it is 5 conference champs and then at larges.
Looks like ACC would be EDIT:SMU not FSU here all the way back in rankings, and then you have to add a G5 champ.

So top 10 makes the playoffs plus those 2 conf champs.

Actually, they'd miss out. Using these rankings, the playoff would be:

(1) UGA
(2) Michigan
(3) Arizona
(4) SMU

(5) Alabama v. (12) Oklahoma
(6) Oregon v. (11) ND
(7) Ole Miss v. (10) Mizzou
(8) Ohio State v. (9) Texas

You'd have the top 4 ranked conference champs as 1-4. Conference champs 5 and 6 are not ranked so no Group of 5 schools this year.

SMU being the highest ranked ACC team and an automatic qualifier would kick LSU out.

(2) Alabama
(3) Michigan
(4) Oregon
(5) Ole Miss
(6) Ohio State
(7) Texas
(8) Mizzou
(9) Notre Dame
(10) Arizona
(11) Oklahoma
(12) LSU
(13) Utah
(14) Tennessee
(15) Washington
(16) Penn St
(17) Kansas St
(18) SMU
(19) Florida State
(20) Kansas
(21) Clemson
(22) NC State
