It’s that beautiful time of year again when the postseason is finally on the horizon. So who makes the College Football Playoff if it began today? Well let’s take a stab at that, shall we?

Last year, it was the Alabama Crimson Tide who ended up winning the 2016 College Football Playoff. And, to the surprise of no one, Alabama seems to be well on their way back. There are plenty of teams who would like to beg to differ, however.

Let’s take for instance Texas A&M, who themselves are undefeated. College Gameday will be in town for this Top-10 matchup. Is it arguable that this could decide the SEC West? I mean, I don’t see anyone else taking a stab at these two for the title.

Elsewhere in College Football Playoff land, you have the Big 10 powerhouse THE Ohio State University making quite a stir. But arch rival Michigan, and Jim Harbaugh, may have something to say about that. This year could be VERY interesting in the Big 10.

Then, let’s look to the West Coast that has the Washington Huskies absolutely tearing through the Pac-12. After an absolute thrashing so far in every game, who can truly stop the Huskies? It will be interesting for sure.
