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


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.

There is no requirement for them to be ranked. It is very likely going to a 5-7 model after the PAC12 went away. Just a formality vote from what we are being told.

But if the 5th conference champ is unranked, the CFP committee decides who would get it.
