NY6 projections

Based on the most recent rankings, here are my projections for the New Year's Six bowls.

Cotton Bowl (semi-final)
#1 Alabama (projected SEC champ) vs. #4 Michigan (projected Big Ten champ)

Orange Bowl (semi-final)
#2 Clemson (projected ACC champ) vs. #3 Notre Dame

Sugar Bowl
#5 Georgia (projected SEC replacement team) vs. #6 Oklahoma (projected Big 12 champ)

Rose Bowl
#8 Washington State (projected Pac-12 champ) vs. #10 Ohio State (projected Big Ten replacement team)

Fiesta Bowl
#9 UCF (projected Group of 5 rep) vs. #11 Florida

Peach Bowl
#7 LSU vs. #12 Penn State

The G5 team is locked into the Fiesta Bowl, and I think Penn State gets pushed to the Peach Bowl simply to avoid matching up two SEC teams in the same bowl.  LSU and Florida could be interchangeable in this scenario.
