This past weekend was Rivalry Week, and if you’re anywhere close to even a casual college football fan, you know that means the regular season is now complete. Thirteen weeks is now in the books and this is usually where things get really interesting.
All that’s left are the conference championship games before the College Football Playoff committee determines the four teams that will be a part of the chase for a national title. Ohio State was dealt close to a mortal blow with an embarrassing loss to Michigan in the ‘Shoe, but all eyes will be on how far the Buckeyes drop. If they drop to No. 5, they are likely just one USC loss away from getting back into the field. Drop to No. 6 behind, say Alabama, and kiss the chance of getting into the playoff goodbye.
