How Does Vandy Get In?

I am hoping Vandy can get a playoff appearance, but I am not sure what scenario would have to occur for them to get in:
1. Ohio State (12-0)
2. Indiana (12-0)
3. Georgia (11-1)
4. Texas Tech (11-1)
5. Oregon (11-1)
6. Ole Miss (11-1)
7. Texas A&M (11-1)
8. Oklahoma (10-2)
9. Alabama (10-2)
10. Notre Dame (10-2)
11. Brigham Young (11-1)
12. Miami (10-2)
13. Texas (9-3)
14. Vanderbilt (10-2)
Troy @ 25James Madison
Kennesaw State @ Jacksonville State
24North Texas @ 20Tulane
UNLV @ Boise State
11BYU @ 4Texas Tech
Miami (OH) @ Western Michigan
3Georgia @ 9Alabama
2Indiana @ 1Ohio State
Duke @ 17Virginia
I am guessing at the very least, Vandy needs Troy, Georgia, Texas Tech, and Duke to win + a lot of luck.

Vandy should get in just on principle. Let that Pimp machine keep on rolling.

Why is texas above vandy with 3 losses? And vandy whipped Tennessee this past weekend

A&M beating Texas and Alabama beating Oklahoma would have presumably moved them up to #12 and they'd have an outside chance of sneaking in, but as things stand now I just don't see any realistic way for it to happen. Which sucks as I'd like to have seen them make it.

They sue? Nakos reporting Vandy is suing the CFB playoff committee.
Interesting if true.

We aren’t getting in unless they decide to go to 16 teams this year.
I’m pretty frustrated with the entire thing. There are so many different data points that legitimately support any of the top 14 to get in. The ultimate kicker for me was the chair of CFP literally saying that since we beat UT by too much and they dropped from the top 25 we had no good wins while at the same time he said that since Bama (I have no problems with them being in) fought so hard at Barn’s stadium it showed a good win. So we won by too many points? How does this pass the laugh test? To their credit lots of national press are highlighting this crazy rationale. And I have no doubt next year’s CFP committee will have an entire new set of standards that will apply to different teams at different times in different ways.
Here is a new stat I thought was interesting - again you can find anything to make your case. Like the BCS has us at 12. Teams that lost to someone below the CFP top 14: Texas Tech, Bama, Miami (twice!!) and Texas. Everyone else had no losses to a non CFP top 14 ranked team.
Anyway we won’t be in it. I bet the viewership would have gone up too - everyone loves seeing the little guy try to knock off a power. And I think we would have won a few games too. would love to see a momentum factor for next year - teams like us and Texas improved as the year went on and that should count. Looking forward to destroying some poor unsuspecting team in the bowl game.
Arkansas - how on earth did Yurachek become your AD. The press is laughing at him.
