CBS’s projected CFP Bracket

Worth pointing out that this projection has only 1 team from the B12 and ACC getting a spot in the playoff. I think this is most likely and why Utah has to win the B12 CCG. If 8 spots are taken by the SEC/B1G and if ND gets in, that leaves no more at-large spots for a second team from either the B12 or ACC.

Wow, yeah, 4 SEC, 4 B1G would show they really did win in this realignment. Sad Big 12 or ACC #2 wouldn’t be in top 11 at this point. I think the rhetoric will be that SEC and B1G played through a gauntlet where ACC and Big 12 only had a few tough games so a #4 P2 is better than then M2 (middle two?) #2. And then they throw the bone to G5, likely ranked in the high-teens at best, but maybe even 20-25.

You can’t argue that #4 SEC is better than #2 Big 12 because the SEC team played a “tougher” schedule then throw a bone to a G5 team.
