If you believe in miracles, here's how we get in the MNC...

Clemson wins out
Auburn beats Alabama
TAMU beats Mizzou
Oregon loses to either Oregon St. or in PAC12 CG
Baylor loses one
Ohio St. loses one
FSU needs to lose to both UF and in the ACCCG (but only if you think they would stay ahead of us with one late loss)
From that point, it's a toss up:
If Auburn wins the SECCG, the two options would likely be Clemson/Auburn, or Auburn/Alabama rematch.
If SCU were to beat Auburn, I think it would be an automatic Clemson/Alabama MNCG...
Now, if you think the polls will penalize more for losing late, then FSU only needs to lose one... if not, they need to lose 2.
I think Baylor and OSU fall behind with one loss.
It's not likely, but that is the only possible way it happens.

if the options are AU/Bama rematch... or put Clemson in
but in that case FSU needs to lose twice, unless you think they get punished for losing late

If FSU loses late they will get blasted in the polls IMO...

because the loss would come to either a very low ranked oppoent (i.e. Duke) or a totally unranked opponent (i.e., Florida, Virginia Tech or Georgia Tech).

Easier road to FSU/CU rematch...but one major catch

You have to pull for SCar to win the SEC...
Alabama beats Auburn
Mich State beats OSU
Baylor loss
UCLA beats Oregon
TAMU beats Missouri
Scar beats Alabama
You could argue a one loss Bama would be ahead of us, but a loss in the last week of the season would make it very hard to put them in the MNC game for their very next game.

than to jump a one loss BAMA who loses to SCU
