How will each game of championship Saturday impact the College Football Playoff picture?

Championship weekend means one thing for the Allstate Playoff Predictor: It's the last time to run scenarios.

Two days before the College Football Playoff selection committee makes its final judgments on the 2020 playoff race, we're taking our model out for a spin to answer this year's pressing questions. Can Notre Dame afford a loss? Is Florida still alive? Is Oklahoma?

Prior to now, the Predictor was unaware of the selection committee's rankings, which is why it previously thought Iowa State was long gone from the playoff race and USC was a real contender. But starting with the penultimate rankings issued Tuesday, the model is now cognizant of the committee's rankings.
