Hmmm, we'll see how emotionally charged Herbstreit is about this one if/when the time comes.
FWIW… I’ve talked to a number of folks asking if the CFP could ban Texas Tech if Sorsby plays. Answer: Maybe. There’s no mechanism specifically for cases like this, but in general, CFP follows NCAA guidelines. And, as ‘23 FSU showed, extenuating circumstances can be considered. But the selection committee wouldn’t decide. Management committee would have to take up the issue and then present it to the selection committee members as an option. Right now, it’s unlikely, but there are people who think it should be on the table.
