2016 College Football Playoff: What will the Committee Do Tonight?

The election plus CFB Playoff projections. This will be quite a Tuesday night. Last week the Committee was a bit shocking, placing Clemson over Michigan despite Michigan’s dominance this season and also putting, at the time, 1 loss Texas A&M over Washington. Here is a quick rundown of what could change their opinion for this week:

• Alabama played a close, defensive battle against LSU as they always do. Offense was not really a thing down south this weekend but I don’t see Alabama moving out of the #1 spot.
• Both Clemson and Michigan throttled inferior opponents this weekend, so there isn’t really much room for movement in their eyes between the two.
• Texas A&M, who surprisingly made it in as a one loss team over undefeated Washington, lost over the weekend. This should end their playoff hopes that were already too high to begin with.
• Washington destroyed California 66-27, which should move them into fourth, but....
• Ohio State more thoroughly crushed Nebraska 62-3, who was also in the Top 10 at the time, so perhaps this sets up Ohio State jumping into the top 4 over Washington.
• Louisville also put the beat down on a terrible Boston College team, so nothing changed there.

Not a lot has changed for the top three, as has been the trend most of the season other than the Ohio State loss, but the race for that fourth spot has gotten very interesting. Let’s take a look at how the OTE “writers” place the Top 4:

Which gives us a Top 4 of:
