There is no way the Committee will take 12-1 UNC over 11-2 Stanford.

UNC has not played a single team in the current CFP Top 25 and has a horrible loss to South Carolina.

I'm not counting on Florida vs Alabama unless some flu bug strikes half Crimson Tide starters, and even then...

Go Tar Heels!  I have no prior experience with that school...would take a CFP playoff spot over any rooting interest in the Carolinas.

I think, using FPI, SC was given something like an 86% chance of winning the September game against Stanford.
