We’re only in Week 2, but it’s never too early to start thinking about which teams have the best chance to make the playoff. And this week gifts fans with one of the best matchups of the entire season — one that should have playoff implications for months — as Texas travels to Alabama. Who will be among the last four teams standing? You decide.
For the past nine years, the Allstate Playoff Predictor has been painting a week-to-week picture of which teams have a realistic chance to be one of the four in the College Football Playoff, and overall, it has been pretty accurate, if we do say so ourselves. All nine champions were given at least a 65% chance to make the CFP before their championship season even began.
Using that stat and the criteria below to set the table, we give you the chance to pick a team and decide how its season will pan out. According to your choices, the Allstate Playoff Predictor will determine how likely that team is to be one of the four CFP semifinalists.
Teams with less than a 7% chance to make the CFP are not included.
