Is the "no repeat" team rule really so strong by KeoughCharles05

for the Peach/Fiesta that they would send both Cincinnati and Virginia to the Fiesta? Is it that the Peach had to eat the G5 champ last time, so they wouldn't get the G5 champ this time no matter what?

If the Peach isn't taking the G5 champ no matter what, then I agree with you, our opponent choices seem limited to the ACC champ or the G5 champ, unless those are UVA and Cincy.

I see the possible contenders for the access bowls as:
Required:
ACC Champ* (Assuming not in playoff, seems safe)
G5 Champ* (Assuming not in playoff, seems likely, but not assured)
Optional:
Big 10 #2/3
SEC #3/4
Big 12 #2/3
Notre Dame

It would seem to me to make the most sense to put the ACC champ in the Peach, and if Cincy is the G5, to put them in the Peach as well, giving us an interesting matchup in the Fiesta (Baylor would be the worst possible scenario here). But, if the G5 team is Houston, SMU, or Fresno, you'd put them in the Fiesta against ND.
