It’s time to start really analyzing just how the College Football Playoff will really look now that we’ve seen all the likely key players in tough games. It’s not going to be easy as the obvious four teams, but we’ll save that for the College Football Playoff section at the end.

Let’s wait one more week to see how the upsets shake out and then get into all the five-win team scenarios.
