ESPN’s Heather Dinich has been making a College Football Playoff project throughout the season.
Week 10 was circled as one of the biggest weekends of the season, as there were six games where both teams were ranked in the Top 18. There will be a new No. 1, as Miami lost a thrilling 31-24 game to No. 11 Notre Dame. Georgia and Alabama established themselves in the SEC, as both picked up dominant road wins against teams ranked in the top 15.
With so many big games, there are going to be changes, and Dinich made hers on Sunday. Here’s a look at her new 12-team field:
- No. 1 Georgia
- No. 2 Utah
- No. 3 Alabama
- No. 4 Texas
- No. 5 Notre Dame
- No. 6 Miami
- No. 7 Indiana
- No. 8 UCLA
- No. 9 Tennessee
- No. 10 Kentucky
- No. 11 Texas Tech
- No. 12 BYU
The SEC once again is the leader in the pack, as there are five teams in the top 10. The B1G 12 has the second most with three teams, while the B1G is down to two teams; Ohio State lost its second straight game in a 41-22 blowout at home against Oregon.
One of the biggest risers in Week 10 figures to be Tennessee. The Volunteers were on the outside looking in after the initial CFP, as they were ranked 13th.
With many big games remaining on the schedule, there figures to be a lot more movement coming up in the future.
