The Big 10 East is now down to two teams. Both Michigan teams have basically been eliminated from any type of Playoff contention. That leaves Ohio State and Penn State and those two will play each other in State College on the 29th. The loser will have to win out to hope for a Playoff spot. Both must play the Michigan teams later on, but those are the only two tough games for Ohio State. Penn State also gets to host Iowa and Wisconsin. In the West, we are down to Wisconsin and Iowa, and those two play on the 22nd in Iowa City.

In the SEC, both Alabama and Georgia should advance to the CC game undefeated. Alabama's only difficult game is at home against Auburn. Georgia's only difficult game is, you guessed it, at home against Auburn. I can't see either team losing to Auburn this season. If both teams run the table and meet in the CC game, both will play in the playoffs. Alabama will play in Dallas and Georgia in Miami.

Is their anyone that can challenge Clemson in the ACC? I do not see anyone in the Atlantic Division challenging them, and it appears that only Va. Tech in the Coastal Division is strong enough to come up with a decent game against them.

In the Big 12, it looks like it will come down to the last two weeks of the season. OU finishes at West Virginia, and if those teams finish 1-2, they will meet again in the following week in Arlington for the CC.

The Pac 12 has three teams in the North that will battle it out. Stanford has the disadvantage, playing at both Oregon and Washington, while Oregon gets both Stanford and Washington at home. In the West, Arizona has been a terrible disappointment and USC just does not have the experience, as they showed against Stanford. Utah looks like the best bet now, with a critical home game against Washington this Saturday, and home games against USC, Arizona, and Oregon. They get Stanford on the road.
