Just looked up the selection orders. It's pretty asinine, but here's how it would work- the Orange Bowl would be losing the ACC champ to the National Title game, so they would have a replacement as well. Since Florida State would be ranked no 1 and Ohio State would be no 2, the Orange Bowl would have first pick, and would presumably select an SEC at-large, and I'm guessing they would look for Alabama first. The SEC champ would be in the Sugar Bowl. If no Big-10 team is available, we'd probably play Baylor or something.

It's starting to look like some voters are moving MSU up to keep them eligible if they lose. Previously they could count on Wisconsin, but after they pooped the bed against PSU that goes out the window. If that kind of shenanigans continues, they'll likely stay in the top 14 even with a loss.
