Houston needs both OU and Louisville to win the rest of their games in which case a Houston win against Louisville just might catapult them over Boise, SDSU & WMU because despite the "bad loss" to SMU, Houston would be able to claim victories against 2 Top 10 P5 schools and committee will be biased and give a lot more weight to those top tier P5 wins

Yes, Navy would need to lose their final two conference games (against ECU and SMU) for UH to go to the Conference Championship and have a chance for the G5 spot in the access bowls.
