The Big XII is out. Baylor may not even be considered if they run the table. Their schedule is terrible!
Notre Dame has been out since the loss to Texas.
The PAC 12 has Stanford and Washington. UCLA eliminated themselves by giving up the late lead to Stanford. Arizona St is unbeaten but they will lose multiple games.
The Big Ten has Michigan, Ohio State, and Wisconsin. Michigan St could get in if they run the table. They have Michigan and Ohio St at home. I think the playoff comes down to the season finale in Columbus.
The ACC game of the year is this week when Louisville goes to Clemson. FSU isn't out but would have to be very good to finish the year. Miami is unbeaten and doesn't face Louisville or Clemson in the regular season.
The SEC is Bama, Texas A&M and Tennessee. UT drew the short straw by having to play both out of the west. Starting on October 8th these three teams will face one another in consecutive weeks...
Oct 8th - UT at A&M
Oct 15th - Bama at UT
Oct 22nd - A&M at Bama
If Bama or UT wins out during that stretch then I think an unbeaten regular season is a great possibility. A&M still has to play Ole Miss.
Houston is just blowing people out until their meeting with Louisville. They need OU to win the Big XII and Louisville to come in highly ranked.
PLAYOFF PREDICTION:
1. Alabama
2. Clemson
3. Ohio St
4. Stanford
