The College Football News bowl projections, and the predictions for the College Football Playoff after Week 6.
A few rules to remember.
1) The RedBox (Big Ten vs. Pac-12), SoFi Hawaii (Mountain West vs. AAC or C-USA) and Bahamas (C-USA vs. MAC) aren’t playing this year.
2) The NCAA is pushing towards blowing off records for this one year for bowl eligibility. The bowls aren’t likely to take the true dogs, but there probably won’t be enough winning teams – and there certainly won’t be enough six-win teams – to get bowl eligible. The goal is to fill in all the contracted bowl tie-ins.
