Latest projections for every bowl game, including the College Football Playoff

NCAAF

As we inch closer to the first College Football Playoff rankings release on Nov. 24, the debate over the final four teams is ramping up.

While a handful of Power 5 teams remain undefeated (albeit while playing a different amount of games among them because of the coronavirus pandemic), there are other programs looking to squeeze into a New Year’s Six bowl.
