2026 Bowl Projections After Week Nine

It’s Wednesday, and you know what that means. It’s time for our weekly column of who’s in the playoff and all the bowl games. We’ve reached November, so by the time you are reading this, we’ll have our first rankings from the selection committee. So we’ll have a better idea of how they see things. It was another crazy week in college football, meaning the only thing for sure is nothing’s for sure. Take the Big 12, for example. Baylor, who fired their coach, beat Central Florida 41-9. The Knights, of course, beat BYU, who beat Notre Dame.
