Each team's remaining games are simulated 100,000 times and run through the same standings, tiebreaker and College Football Playoff selection logic as the Playoff Predictor. Records and win distributions cover the regular season only and exclude conference championship games. Average seed is measured across the simulations in which a team reached the field.
