So far this summer, I have performed an in-depth, data-driven analysis of Michigan State’s football schedule, the Big Ten race, the rest of the Power Five and the FBS independents and Group of Five. Today, it is time to put all of those pieces together and to make some predictions as to what teams will make the College Football Playoff as well as the other four New Year’s Six bowl games.

You Wanna Talk About Playoffs?

In the previous parts of this series, I have presented data tables for every conference that included College Football Playoff odds for all 130 FBS teams.
