Interesting take, specially on the P4 runners up.

Ur drunk lol , I hope ur prediction comes true but this team isnât even close to Hermans 2015 team. This years team has only really played one team worth talking about TT and u saw how we got spanked lol. If we beat ASU then o will be a believer. Iâm just not buying it yet based on who we have played and what my eyes are seeing on the field
Youâre a buyer todayâŠ

I shouldâve bet but I donât bet.
56-9 with backups in and ten minutes left. Penn State is awful but preseason polls did their job of elevating brands.
It feels good that UH has control over itâs own destiny to make the CFP. Win out and your in. No relying on other teams to lose. I hope the B12 gets at least two teams in the playoffs.
Not necessarily.
if Tech wins out and BYU wins against Cincy, that would be four 1-loss conference teams (assuming everyone wins everything else).
Naturally it would lend to:
- Texas Tech (1 loss to ASU)
- BYU (1 loss to Tech)
- Cincinnati (1 loss to BYU)
- Houston (1 loss to Tech)
In this case, itâs a good chance Houston misses the CFP (and potentially the CCG due to the tie-breaker)
Cincy has a tough road. Weâll see

We need to pray that one of the mid-ranked teams (TCU, Iowa State, Utah, Arizona, Kansas State) pulls off some upsets in the late season.
Of course, Houston needs to win out.
BYU and UH winning out is the best scenario?

I think youâll get your wish next week when Cincy goes to Utah. Could get ugly for the bearcats.

I just hope BYU (or someone else) knocks off Tech. Would put their CCG and CFP hopes pretty much on ice.

I hope Texas wins out just so we could get the opportunity to rematch them and win
Imagine if UH, Tech, Texas and Texas A&M are all in the CFP
would be crazy

Is there a scenario where either the B12 champion (UH or TTU) and a two loss conference champion loser ( UH or TTU) gets in?
On a side note, isnt the NIL the best thing thatâs ever happened to UH AND college Football in the State of Texas!
A Rich powerful state of Texas rises its teams, with NIL $$$, while taking from the Poorer SEC state schools that USED to be dominant in the pre NIL era!
Long live the NIL ERA !!!
Probably not likely.
Two or three 1-loss Big 12 teams can get in, but itâs practically over for any 2-loss teams because the SEC is considered to be the toughest schedule.
Regarding NIL, Houston is still one of the worst NIL programs in the country. Weigmanâs NIL deal (Cotton Holdings, where his dad works) is essentially a private deal that was transfered from A&M. Houston isnât really involved in it.
Keisean Henderson is choosing Houston over other programs that are offering crazy NIL deals (Keiseanâs dad also was coached under Fritz)

I think a 2-loss team gets in if the second loss is in the CCG. Basically, 11 wins gets in. Like SMU last year.
Dude!
We are on the cusp of being the ONLY school in the Power 4 to make both the Final 4 AND the College Football Playoff in 2025.
The ONLY school.
Stop saying we arenât a Darling in the NIL eraâŠwe are and we are only getting stronger.
The NIL era is the best thing that has ever happened to the University of Houston.
Youâre ignoring the GOAL of the NILâŠto build postseason contenders
None of us know which bucket #2 NIL deals are being promised to our players but THEY ARE WORKING!

Iâm not necessarily disagreeing. Itâs just that the thing that seperates UH and schools like UT/A&M is that brand alone wonât get us NIL deals.
UH has to be a winning program to get NIL Deals.

OrâŠlive in a huge market to make your core/role players happy, and committed, via a bunch of smaller Bucket #2 deals (not reported)
Then you use select bucket #1 funds (Collective) for âhired gunsâ at select impact positions.
We have to âMoney Ballâ this thing but our resultsâŠIN THE NIL ERAâŠshow we are building competitive squads in both basketball and football
