Quietly, the College Football Playoff’s Group of 6 rep no longer needs to be a conference champ…
Summary
New Playoff Group of 6 non-conference-champ rule lets committee cap non-Power schools at one, protecting at-large bids.
It's just speculation on my part. The logical reason for this is to allow the committee to cap G level (or non P level) schools at one. Prior to this, we would have had to have made it as an at-large over a P level at-large.
Now they can theoretically give us a bid over a G level school as if we have a season where we could warrant consideration they wouldn't be able to claim we can't be considered as we are neither a P level nor G level school.
