Well, Duke has a chance to win the ACC.

But do they have a chance to make the College Football Playoff? I'm not so confident.

James Madison’s schedule is very poor so maybe the committee knocks them a good bit but I don’t know. I could be totally wrong here.

Remember that there is no guarantee that Duke will make the College Football Playoff if they were to beat Virginia next week.
November 30, 2025 at 4:37 AM
Man, just go out of bounds!
November 30, 2025 at 4:23 AM
Alabama decided to not take the points and scored a touchdown instead.
November 30, 2025 at 4:10 AM
If Alabama prevails against Auburn tonight, there won't be much drama in this playoff race.
November 30, 2025 at 1:10 AM
Virginia Tech just took a kick out from 8 yards in the end zone. How does this continue to happen?

Quite the coverage bust for Oklahoma’s CFP chances.
November 29, 2025 at 11:53 PM
Oklahoma losing to LSU would certainly make the playoff race quite interesting heading into the night slate.

Updated College Football Playoff odds

Yes, Notre Dame is still ahead of Miami. The Hurricanes will need Alabama to lose in the Iron Bowl to feel good about their chances.

My CFP projections have Miami ranked ahead of Texas but still behind Notre Dame, Alabama and BYU.

They'll need some help.
November 29, 2025 at 8:40 PM
Getting ahead of it now but Miami’s game control against Pitt is going to be worse than Notre Dame’s against Pitt and Notre Dame still ranks ahead of them.

Texas is going to have its first domino fall with Michigan losing to Ohio State.

BYU is in a fight with UCF. Alabama tonight. Let’s see what happens.

The concerning thing for Michigan this year is that despite being the youngest team in the Big Ten is that they haven’t been competitive against the three best teams on their schedule.

There should be some changes in Ann Arbor this offseason if they want to compete.

Michigan special teams has been brutal this year.
November 29, 2025 at 7:23 PM
Michigan has made up the yardage that Ohio State gained in that 4th and 2 punt.
November 29, 2025 at 7:20 PM
The snow picks up and Michigan forces a punt.
November 29, 2025 at 7:16 PM
Ohio State just did this as well.
Your weekly reminder that if you call a fair catch, they give you the ball at the 25-yard line for free.
November 29, 2025 at 7:11 PM
Once Jordan Marshall went down for Michigan, it was hard to see them having enough skill talent to keep up with Ohio State.

Those third down numbers, sheesh.
November 29, 2025 at 6:50 PM
If you didn’t notice, Michigan wants this game to as few possessions as possible as they don’t care to run an extra 40 seconds off the clock.

Ohio State gets the ball to start the second half.
November 29, 2025 at 6:42 PM
Another third down conversion for Ohio State.
November 29, 2025 at 6:33 PM
Ohio State has a chance to double dip here. Can put Michigan in the dirt if they do.

I am not sure how that call was upheld?
November 29, 2025 at 6:13 PM
Make this late downs instead of third down.
One of Wink Martindale’s biggest issues at Michigan has been third down. They have not been great.

Ohio State is having success on third down today.
