    Also, it’s not completely auto. A G5 champ can get in over a P5 champ.

      True. In most years based on the rankings, all 5 P5s would be in, plus one G5 as the sixth auto-bid, but there could have been scenarios where 2 G5s could leave a P5 out.

      I guess it’s worth noting that the PAC was resistant to this 12-team CFP model, even though it’s vastly better for their conference than the 4-team version. They really wanted a fully automatic playoff berth (and now given how their conference is imploding, that auto-bid could have been a bit of glue to hold them together).
