Posted this in another thread, but I think it clears up some confusion. It appears we are all but virtually locked-in to the 12 seed.
The four highest-ranked conference champions will be seeded 1-4 and be given a first-round bye. The fifth-highest-ranked conference champion will receive the final automatic bid. One important note with this is that if the fifth champion isn't included in the top 12 of the CFP top 25 on Sunday, it will be slotted in as the No. 12 seed.
