Neither fan base would treat this like the postseason exhibition that it is \u2014 bragging rights would be on the line. For the Sooners, losing to their former Big 12 rival would make for an uncomfortable offseason. For the Cowboys, beating Oklahoma to cap the first year under Eric Morris would be a substantial building block entering 2027.<\/p>\n<p>Citrus<\/p>\n<p>Projection: Wisconsin vs. Ole Miss<\/p>\n<p>What happens if the Badgers win out and go 10-2, but fail to reach the Big Ten Championship Game and get passed over for both of the CFP&#8217;s final at-large spots in favor of Notre Dame \u2014 a team Wisconsin lost to \u2014 and a nine-win SEC squad? That&#8217;s a legitimate scenario following Saturday night&#8217;s win over USC in Madison.<\/p>\n<p>One of the teams that was hit with the largest downgrade this week, maybe it was simply the spot for Ole Miss, taking on a back-against-the-wall <a class=\"Annotation-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cbssports.com\/college-football\/teams\/TEXAS\/texas-longhorns\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Texas<\/a> squad.

It was a frustrating performance for USC, whose seven points were the lowest of Riley&#8217;s coaching career. How much would this team have left at the end of the campaign against a hungry, potential two-loss Wake Forest squad?<\/p>\n<p>College Football Playoff\u00a0First round<\/p>\n<p>Projection: (9) LSU at (8) BYU<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;re calling it now \u2014 Alabama at LSU on Nov. 7 will be for a playoff spot in the SEC at-large conversation among various nine-win teams. The Tigers seem to have hit their second gear since the overtime loss at Kentucky and enter their open date in great shape. Lane Kiffin&#8217;s team still needs to finish strong since there are three top-20 opponents to play, including two in Baton Rouge.<\/p>\n<p>BYU&#8217;s win over Notre Dame keeps the Cougars safe, for now, as an at-large selection even if they fail to win the Big 12 this season. That win looms large, especially if the Fighting Irish make the dance.

Will Stein should be the frontrunner for college football&#8217;s coach of the year based on the job he&#8217;s done up to this point, which includes a win over LSU and one at Oklahoma.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbssports.com\/college-football\/news\/notre-dame-college-football-playoff-status-byu-loss\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">If Notre Dame gets to 10 wins<\/a>, the Fighting Irish are going to be the last team in the bracket. That&#8217;s our projection right now, even if Miami wins in South Bend next month en route to top billing. SMU&#8217;s continuing to win in the ACC helps, and the Mustangs should be ranked at 9-1 overall when they come to Notre Dame in a couple of weeks. There&#8217;s going to be several nine-win SEC teams with better resumes upset that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbssports.com\/college-football\/news\/college-football-playoff-selection-notre-dame-mou-2026-schedule\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Notre Dame&#8217;s top-12 CFP assurance<\/a> is what gets this team in the mix.<\/p>\n<p>Projection: (12) Boise State (5) <a class=\"Annotation-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cbssports.com\/college-football\/teams\/UCLA\/ucla-bruins\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">UCLA<\/a><\/p>\n<p>After JMU&#8217;s first loss, the Broncos control their destiny in the Group of Six race. We had Oregon State in this spot last week under the belief the Beavers would beat Boise State on the blue turf later this season, but that thought process is admittedly wavering a bit. The analytics point to the Broncos being the safer pick at this point.<\/p>\n<p>Defensive-minded under Bob Chesney, the Bruins continue to pummel the Big Ten into submission. Unbeaten through seven games, UCLA&#8217;s winning without the sexy dynamic, and that might work down the stretch in the conference. USC in the finale on Nov. 28 is the only ranked opponent left on the slate. For now, we see UCLA finishing \u2014 at worst \u2014 second in the conference and getting an at-large allocation in the bracket.<\/p>\n<p>Quarterfinals<\/p>\n<p>PEACH BOWL \u2014 Projection: (9) LSU vs. (1) Miami<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"Annotation-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cbssports.com\/college-football\/players\/29123277\/darian-mensah\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Darian Mensah<\/a> and <a class=\"Annotation-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cbssports.com\/college-football\/players\/29595624\/malachi-toney\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Malachi Toney<\/a> look borderline unstoppable through eight weeks as the most lethal tandem in the country.

The Hurricanes&#8217; trek to Notre Dame next month could change that.<\/p>\n<p>COTTON BOWL \u2014 Projection: (10) Texas vs. (2) Georgia<\/p>\n<p>Will the SEC&#8217;s frontrunner please stand up? For now, we&#8217;re giving that title to Kirby Smart&#8217;s Bulldogs, as long as there&#8217;s not another upset along the way.
