billy.pilgrim would have hated this:
The Group of 5 playoff spot is Boise State's to lose

Are all of the Playoff games absorbing existing Bowls or do some teams get home (blue field) games?

Congrats, O Really:
Miami proudly proclaims state championship
41-17 win over Florida
36-14 win over Florida State
Miami is my favorite of the 3, too.

Oregon looks comfortable at the top

... Oregon is 8-0 for the first time since 2013 and ranked No. 1 for the first time since 2012. With an offense that looks far more in sync than it did at the beginning of the year and a defense that continues to improve, it doesn't appear to be slowing down.

Next week, the Ducks head to Michigan for what is arguably the toughest matchup remaining on their schedule, but nothing suggests they won't be ready for any game that's left between them and an undefeated regular season....

Go Ducks!

Finally, one more to disgust billy.pilgrim's ghost:
Alabama isn't done

Auburn is 3-5 and needs to win 3 of 4 to get a Bowl. UL Monroe should be a gimme, but the others are Vanderbilt, 10 Texas A&M (7-1) and, of course, 14 Alabama in the "Iron Bowl" Next year.
