Top Four
Georgia Bulldogs
The Bulldogs struggled a bit with rival Georgia Tech but they still got the win and stayed in the top spot. Michigan is right on their heels and some think they have a better resume, but the Bulldogs are still at the top and we think they beat Alabama in the SEC championship and earn the top seed.
Michigan Wolverines
The Wolverines beat Ohio State on Saturday for a third straight year and only have to get by an Iowa team that is bad on offense in the Big Ten championship game. The Wolverines shouldn’t have any trouble and we think they grab the No. 2 spot for a third straight year.
Florida State Seminoles
The Seminoles passed their first test without quarterback Jordan Travis and now get a Louisville team that is coming off a shocking loss to Kentucky last weekend. The Seminoles are teetering on the edge and many are claiming they shouldn’t make it some upsets happen, but if they finish undefeated they are in. We think they get by the Cardinals and claim the third spot.
Oregon Ducks
The Ducks have a loss and are currently on the outside looking in but they have been playing great and we think they beat Washington on Friday night and sneak into the No. 4 spot. There will be arguments if Texas and Alabama win their games but the Ducks are ahead of both right now and think they will stay that way with a win.

In the Mix
Washington Huskies
The way to the playoff is easy for the Huskies: Beat Oregon for a second time and they are probably the three seed. If they lose they have a slim chance to sneak it, but they will probably be left out. They beat the Ducks by three earlier this year but Oregon has looked more impressive and we think they will win that matchup.
Texas Longhorns
The Longhorns need to win and get some help. If all the undefeated teams win they are out of luck. But if one of them loses they have a good chance to make it. Their resume matches up well with Oregon, but being ranked behind them doesn’t help. They should win the argument over Alabama as they beat the Crimson Tide on the road but we have seen crazier things happen.
Alabama Crimson Tide
If they beat Georgia in the SEC championship game you would think they would be in, but it is possible for it to not happen. They want Texas to lose and they probably need Florida State to lose, too. They have been playing well but needed a miracle to even beat Auburn. The committee loves the SEC, though, and we could see them getting in with a win over the Bulldogs
Ohio State Buckeyes
The Buckeyes played Michigan tough but ultimately came up short against the Wolverines. They backed into the playoff last year, but they need a lot more to happen this year for them to get in. They need Georgia and Michigan to definitely win and then Texas and Washington to lose. Even in that scenario, they could get knocked out by the Huskies as they would have lost in the conference championship game while the Buckeyes were sitting at home.
