Welcome to Before The Snap, For The Win’s college football series where we’ll break down the sport’s trending storylines, examine each week’s biggest matchups and track the College Football Playoff and Heisman Trophy races.

But unless something disastrous happens to one of these teams, it’s pretty likely that Alabama, Georgia and Ohio State will make up three of the four playoff teams. If that scenario plays out, it leaves teams like Clemson, Michigan and USC fighting for that last spot.
