Yes, But

Several picks hinge on projected matchups and tiebreakers, not settled standings. Liberty and Jacksonville State could both finish undefeated in Conference USA, while the Big Ten race remains especially crowded.

State of Play
  • Utah, Boise State and Georgia are presented as the strongest picks in their conferences.
  • Oregon is projected to reach the Big Ten title game against UCLA and avenge its regular-season loss.
  • Liberty is favored to host a possible Conference USA title game against Jacksonville State based on computer rankings.
What's Next

The remaining schedule could reshape the title-game matchups, with key tests including Ohio vs. Toledo, Illinois’ late-season run and Georgia Southern’s projected meeting with Louisiana Tech.

Bottom Line

These are informed forecasts, not clinched outcomes: the final weeks will decide whether the favorites hold and whether conference championship games get a fitting sendoff.
