College Football Playoff picks significantly changed in the latest bowl projections heading into Week 6 after three top-10 teams went down. None were bigger than Georgia’s setback at Alabama despite a scintillating second-half comeback. Facing one of the nation’s toughest schedules the rest of the way, the Bulldogs are still pegged as a playoff team this week, but the road back to the league title game is considerably more difficult.
Group of Five playoff hopefuls UNLV and James Madison both posted blowout victories to stay unbeaten and remain in the chase alongside one-loss Boise State, who ran over previously-unblemished Washington State behind a Herculean rushing effort from Ashton Jeanty.
In a playoff elimination game of sorts, Notre Dame’s victory over Louisville keeps the Fighting Irish within striking distance of the top 10 as a quality at-large option if they can keep it up.
