College Football Playoff bracket for Week 10: Projecting top four seeds, first-round matchups, bubble teams

The College Football Playoff committee is facing a challenging task in sorting out the one-, two-, and three-loss teams in the rankings, especially with Power 4 and Notre Dame involved. There are a total of 25 Power 4 teams (including Notre Dame) with two losses or less, and there is a spot reserved for a Group of 6 team. Moving to a 24-team playoff would simplify the process, while reducing it to a dozen teams would be more enjoyable.

Currently, there are three undefeated teams left in the Power 4: Miami, UCLA, and Utah. Seven Power 4 teams have one loss, including Georgia, Kentucky, BYU, Texas Tech, Indiana, and Wake Forest. Fifteen Power 4 teams have two losses, with Alabama, LSU, Missouri, Ole Miss, Tennessee, and Texas being six of those teams. The Big Ten has four two-loss teams, while the ACC has three, and the Big 12 still has a pair of two-loss teams.

The Sporting News projects that Miami and Georgia are the two highest seeds, followed by UCLA and Utah. The first-round matchups include Boise State versus Notre Dame, Texas versus Indiana, and BYU versus Kentucky.
