When Navy?hosts Temple?on Saturday for the American Athletic Conference title game, there will be a large contingent of bowl officials with a rather specific rooting interest.I dont want to be un-American, one bowl official said, but nearly everyone in the bowl industry, quite frankly, is rooting against Navy.That official technically isnt rooting against Navy, just what happens if Navy wins. Thats because if Navy wins the American and is in contention for the Group of 5 bid in a New Years Six bowl, the College Football Playoff selection committee could delay announcing the highest-ranked Group of 5 champion team until Dec. 10 when Navy plays Army, six days after its final rankings are revealed.The domino effect on other bowls could paralyze the system, a source said.Delaying the Group of 5s bid to the Cotton Bowl would affect many bowl games involving Group of 5 teams. Officials would have to delay placing teams in bowls without knowing whether a conference champion could get pulled up to the Cotton Bowl. Additionally, opponents in those bowl games wouldnt know whom they were playing in addition to the obvious logistic and financial issues involved with waiting another seven days before planning travel, buying tickets and other factors.The bowl season begins Dec. 17 with five bowls -- all involving Group of 5 teams. Teams usually arrive to those bowl sites on Wednesday, Dec. 14, so those schools would have little more than a 72-hour turnaround between learning what bowls they are in and traveling to the sites. The short time frame would also likely affect fans ability to travel and potentially hurt the communities hosting those games, sources said.In Tuesdays rankings, Western Michigan, which plays for the MAC title Friday, was ranked No. 17, and Navy was only two spots back at No. 19.If the committee believes the result of the Army-Navy game could affect Navys ranking and therefore its place in the playoff or its selection as the Group of 5 representative, only the pairings that affect Army and Navy would be delayed until after the Army-Navy game, College Football Playoff executive director Bill Hancock said.Hancock would not specify how close in the rankings Navy and the next closest Group of 5 champion has to be to delay the decision.Not only would a delay affect the Group of 5 teams, but it also would prohibit teams with 5-7 records that qualified with high academic progress rates from getting placed into a bowl until Dec. 10. Thats because those teams are awarded bowl bids that couldnt be filled by bowl-eligible teams with a 6-6 record or better. The APR teams will be the last teams placed.A Temple win against Navy on Saturday would eliminate the Midshipmen from Cotton Bowl contention and allow all of the bowl selections to be announced Sunday. If both Western Michigan and Navy win, sources say the rankings will be delayed.Some say the nightmare scenario actually would be Western Michigan losing the MAC title game and Navy winning the American. Then the committee likely would have to wait for the Army-Navy result because its unknown how far Navy would drop in the rankings after a loss to Army. Another Group of 5 champ could potentially pass the Midshipmen, including San Diego State?or Wyoming?in the Mountain West or?Western Kentucky?in Conference USA.The bottom line is if the rankings are delayed, it would be a disaster to the bowl system, a bowl official said.In June 2015, the College Football Playoff changed its rules so that the final rankings would be delayed until after the Navy-Army game if it affected the playoff field or the Group of 5 bid.Walter Payton Youth Jersey .

The decision to file the petition is based on the advice of former Supreme Court judge Markandey Katju, who was appointed to counsel the board on the verdict related to the implementation of the committees recommendations. It is also learnt BCCI president Anurag Thakur and secretary Ajay Shirke will not go through with their scheduled meeting with the Lodha Committee on Tuesday after Katju advised them against it.Our judicial review petition is pending. We will be going to file it [in the next two days]. Till the outcome is not there how can we go and attend the meeting? a top BCCI official told ESPNcricinfo. Justice Katju has clearly told us that you should go for the review petition. Members have also agreed [with his assessment]. We will look at the outcome of the review petition and take the necessary action. It is understood that with the parliamentary session in progress on Tuesday, Thakur, who is a Member of Parliament with the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party, will be unavailable to meet the Lodha Committee in any case. It is understood that Shirke wrote to the committee on Sunday night requesting that the meeting be deferred. The committee, however, declined the request.According to a legal expert, a review petition has to be filed within 30 days of the verdict, and it will be heard by the same bench of judges that passed the judgement, in this case Chief Justice of India TS Thakur.Review petitions are usually entertained when there is an error apparent. But here is a case where two judges have taken a very serious view of the matter; its not like they have passed a judgement after one hearing, the legal expert told ESPNcricinfo. The judges have taken a very specific view on the matter. The question of whether its wrong is not something the Supreme Court is going to go into. They are not going to re-examine those things.The expert said 99% of the petitions were dismissed in the chamber itself.dddddddddddd [Review petitions come into the picture in] cases where very serious legal errors are committed, which the court may not have been aware of, the expert said.Some fact, for example, which for some reason the court didnt consider which completely alters the nature of the judgement. Its just sort of a thing which parties file mostly to prolong the matter as opposed to actually getting any relief.The point of having a Supreme Court is to ensure matters come to a conclusion and some final judgement is arrived at. Now if they will file a review petition it will go before CJI Thakur and some other judge who will be assigned to the matter.The expert felt that should Thakur and Shirke not meet with the Lodha Committee it might lead to contempt proceedings. There is an argument that can be made that the committees findings essentially merge with the Supreme Courts judgement, he said. Therefore, if they fail to abide by an order of the court then that could amount to contempt of the court.I am pretty sure if they dont meet them tomorrow then someone will file a contempt petition or the Supreme Court itself can also suo moto, take it upon themselves and say you should have appeared, or the Lodha Committee might write to the Supreme Court and say they havent appeared.A Lodha Committee source also confirmed that contempt proceedings would be initiated should Thakur and Shirke not turn up for the meeting.The BCCI official, however, suggested the board couldnt afford to worry about consequences considering that they were fighting for survival. This is all we can do, what else can we do, he said. We also have our fundamental rights.Katju, who submitted an interim report to the BCCI on Sunday, had also termed the courts order unconstitutional and illegal and said it had violated principles of the Indian Constitution.
