The Ducks are tracking for a New Year’s Six berth even if they don’t win the conference title.
A few helpful reminders on the postseason selection process before we plunge into the latest Pac-12 bowl forecast:
— The Rose Bowl and Sugar Bowl will host the College Football Playoff semifinals, leaving the Pac-12 champion to participate in the Fiesta, Peach or Cotton bowls— The Pac-12 is contractually tied to seven games: the New Year’s Six, Alamo, Las Vegas, Holiday, Sun, LA and Independence bowls. — The Alamo, Las Vegas and Holiday bowls can jump one team in favor of another as long as there is no more than a one-game difference in conference record. The second-tier bowls must select teams in order of conference record.College Football Playoff/Sugar BowlNo two-loss team has ever reached the playoff, and the Pac-12 probably won’t be the conference to change the paradigm. Nor has any Pac-12 team gone undefeated in league play in the expansion era.
