CFP Bubble Watch: Who needs a win during Rivalry Week?
"Six teams are still eligible to reach the ACC conference championship game -- Duke, Georgia Tech, Miami, Pitt, SMU and Virginia. Another four are still in contention to win the Big 12 (Arizona State, BYU, Texas Tech and Utah). And don't forget that Michigan can still make it to the Big Ten title game. The bubble is bursting with lingering hope heading into the final week of the regular season."
"Little if any change, though, is expected tonight in the College Football Playoff selection committee's fourth of six rankings (7 p.m. ET/ESPN). Eleven of the committee's top 12 teams won on Saturday -- and 10 of those victories came by double digits. While the latest top 12 projection remained unchanged, the teams on the bubble have shifted. Bubble Watch accounts for what we have learned from the committee so far -- and historical knowledge of what it means for teams clinging to hope."
Six ACC teams — Duke, Georgia Tech, Miami, Pitt, SMU and Virginia — remain eligible to reach the ACC championship game. Four teams — Arizona State, BYU, Texas Tech and Utah — still contend for the Big 12 title. Michigan retains a path to the Big Ten championship game. With Rivalry Week and conference championship games remaining, resumes can change dramatically and bubble teams can rise or fall. The College Football Playoff committee's fourth ranking is expected to see little movement after dominant performances by top teams, though positions on the bubble have shifted based on recent results.
