#11 Notre Shame is fending off #1 Miami, who have closed the gap to 24-31 with 3:49 left in the game (third and six from the ND 18). Miami is playing without all-everything WR Malachi Toney, who will have "tightrope" surgery to deal with a high ankle sprain. With three weeks left in the regular season, Toney's expected recovery time of four weeks puts his return into the postseason.
Miami WR Cooper Barkate, a Harvard and Duke transfer (played with current Miami QB Mensah at Duke), is stepping up with 9 rec for 118 yds and 2 TDs. That guy should have been on our transfer list, though I'm not sure if we could have matched what Miami was willing to pay for him.
#9 BYU lost to #3 Utah, ending former Stanford commit Bear Bachmeier's hot streak with the Cougars.
#23 Oregon wrecked #12 Ohio State 41-23, which continues tOSU's slow motion fall from grace after losing their starting QB a couple weeks ago for the season.
Future opponents SMU and Virginia Tech played a Friday night game, where the Ponies dominated the Hokies 51-28. Former opponents Duke and NC State played, where the Blue Devils also dominated the Wolfpack, 41-3. Nothing like injuries and the loss of a head coach and defensive coordinator to energize a team!

Down goes #1 Miami. Ugh, I guess that means Notre Dame is likely going to make the playoffs. Georgia crushed #10 Ole Miss 42-7, so they will have a legit claim to #1. #3 Utah, as you mentioned, beat BYU, so they should move up to #2.
Wake Forest hung 77 on Merrimack, so I guess our 50 point loss doesn’t look so bad (yes, I’m being sarcastic)
By my count 7 games featured two ranked teams.

Dang, ND wins. They are a lock for the playoff now.
Wish Malachi Toney had been healthy, but Miami's O-line looked pretty shaky against the ND rush.
I guess I can root for Miami to miss the playoffs, but that's not quite as fulfilling as wishing for ND to miss it two years in a row.
Just my guess as to who's in:
Georgia - (best team)
Alabama - (easy schedule)
ND - (got their marquee win)
Utah - (can drop one)
Miami - (easy schedule)
Indiana - (not betting against Cignetti)
UCLA - (can drop one)
Tennessee - (beat Bama big)
Texas - (beat full strength Ohio State)
Texas Tech - (easy schedule)
Iowa - (easy schedule)
Boise State - (best G6)
I feel most confident in Georgia, least confident in Iowa.
Others who have a strong chance, imo: Kentucky, Wake and USC

I was rooting for both Miami & the Domers to lose.
I guess Toney is even more important to Miami than even some of the hype.
I thought Wake was underrated when they played us and remain largely underrated.

Chesney gets Natl Coach of the Year, if Bruins beat USC and make Playoff.
Imagine... UCLA vs USC being a "play-in game" for the Rust Belt B1G Finale... !
Even if they lose to INDY in B1G Champ game
Making the B1G Champ game is enough to give it to Chesney.
UCLA at #7 in CFP could get a favorable bracket path
Final Four?
GEOG, MIAM, INDY, UTAH?
UTAH still unbeaten; tough Defense.
