For those into playoff chaos, the dream of a two-loss LSU Tigers team knocking off Georgia and crashing the playoff has evaporated with LSU’s loss to Texas A&M.
With everything that went down on rivalry weekend, it looks like the playoff field is set, assuming Georgia, Michigan, TCU, and USC can win on championship weekend.
Ohio State, still with just one loss, remains an interesting option, but their 22-point loss to Michigan casts created a shadow on their playoff prospects. They’ll need someone other than Michigan to have hopes of getting in the playoff field.
Over the last couple of weeks, South Carolina and Spencer Rattler have played spoiler. Two weeks ago, they took Josh Heupel and Tennessee out of playoff contention and this week did the same with Dabo Swinney and Clemson. If this was indeed Spencer Rattler’s final season in college football before turning pro, he went out with a bang.
