Movement was minimal at the top of our College Football Playoff voting, though Oregon‘s last-minute loss to Washington dropped the Ducks.
TCU‘s defense was dominant, especially early in a 17-10 win at Texas. The Longhorns were shut out in a first half at home for the first time since 1997. Longhorns’ quarterback Quinn Ewers had a 29% completion rate during the opening half. TCU held Texas without an offensive touchdown for the game, and the Horned Frogs have now clinched a spot in the Big 12 title game.
Georgia quarterback Stetson Bennett surpassed Matthew Stafford for sixth on the school’s all-time passing touchdowns list during the Bulldogs’ 45-19 rout at Mississippi State. With the win, the Bulldogs secured a spot in the SEC championship game, where they will meet LSU.
Elsewhere, Ohio State, Michigan and Tennessee cruised to victories.
With all that in mind, here’s a look at how ESPN’s college football reporters see the current playoff picture.
