Sorry for my awful handwriting. Also, I think I am following the criteria correctly. Actually, Liberty might not be in there. I do not think they have to take a G5 school (for some reason I was thinking there was one spot reserved for the highest ranked G5 school). So my crazy prediction is that Alabama goes undefeated, beats Georgia twice, then plays them in the semifinals and loses.
