    How does Louisville go 12-1 and threaten an undefeated UW? Wouldn't they have to win the ACC meaning Clemson would be 10-2? Louisville would go 11-1 and in no way would threaten a 13-0 UW team.

    DeLarry's thought was that when you combine east coast bias and Louisville's schedule being perceived as tougher than UW's then it could spell trouble for us.
    A one-loss Power 5 division runnerup is not getting in over an undefeated Power 5 team.

    Hope this helps.

    Louisville and Clemson are in the same division, and they've already played. So if both win out, Clemson is unbeaten and wins the conference and Louisville finishes with one loss.
    Correct, but only with 11 wins, not 12.
    Right. Louisville's best case baring Clemson collapse is 11-1. I agree that's not getting in over an undefeated UW, though I don't think the difference between 12-0 and 13-0 is that meaningful. 12-0 UW would get in over 11-1 Louisville. 13-0 UW would get in over 12-1 Louisville.
