College Football Playoff picks after Championship Week

So much for chalk on Championship Week.

On Friday morning the potential for perhaps the least dramatic four-team selection of the College Football Playoff era existed. That was if favorites Georgia, Michigan, TCU and USC won their respective championship games.

By Friday night, that chalkboard had been scrubbed clean. Utah trailed 17-3 midway through the second quarter but outscored USC 44-7 the rest of the way. The 14-point comeback is the largest in Pac-12 championship game history. With the loss, USC's chances to reach the playoff fell to 1%.
