Florida is the favorite... I'm still a little surprised by that because I keep saying I'm not picking them against Georgia until I see them beat Georgia, just because of the recruiting gap.

I don't know that BYU has to win the Big 12 now to make the playoff. If you have a 12-and-0 Texas Tech and they beat BYU in the Big 12 championship game and hand them, let's say, their second loss, they're both getting in.
