MACtion....It's a tight race at the top for four teams. If Ohio (Parker Navarro) beats Ball State on Black Friday they are a lock for the MAC title game. If they lose, then chaos could ensue as there is a chance four teams finish 6-2 but all 4 teams have not played each other. Ohio lost to Miami (OH) but beats Buffalo. Bowling Green vs Miami (OH) next week probably becomes an elimination game. If Miami (OH) wins they are in. Buffalo is still in the mix if Bowling Green beats Miami (OH) but losses to Ball State this weekend. Assuming Ohio wins, I don't know how the tiebreaker works because that would mean Bowling Green, Miami (OH), and Buffalo would all be 6-2 in conference play but Buffalo would not have played either Miami (OH) or Bowing Green.

AAC: Tulane and Army are already a lock for the AAC title game.

ACC: If SMU wins out they are in the ACC title game but they have two games left. Clemson is done with ACC play and is 7-1 (Loss to Loserville). Miami and Clemson did not play. SMU did not play Miami or Clemson. If SMU loses a game they could still end up out of it because I think it would come down to rankings since Miami, Clemson and SMU would have not played each other. If this was the case I'm 100% certain the CFP would f_ck over SMU and make sure Clemson ends up higher than SMU in the rankings, even though there would really be no reason to do so (Clemson does have a quality loss to Georgia but I mean it wasn't even close...they got smoked 34-3). Assuming SMU wins out, If Miami and Clemson win out I guess Miami gets the nod because they are ranked higher?

BIg12: Elimination game for Az State as they have to beat BYU this weekend. I'm still not sold on Colorado. They definitely have the firepower to win any game but they didn't play BYU, AZ State or Iowa State. They ended up with a friendly schedule (including 5 home games instead of 4). They play @Kansas this weekend and Kansas has won two conference road games in a row (against K State and BYU). Iowa State still in the mix as well (didn't play Colorado, BYU or Az State).

Big 10: Oregon is 8-0 with a final game against Washington so there is still some drama if they somehow lost and Indiana loses a close game to Ohio State. It would come down to the CFI Committee so you know they'd f_ck over Indiana. What if Oregon got curb-stomped but Indiana lost by just a point or 2? Indiana vs Ohio State has a lot on the line this weekend. Elimination game.

CUSA: Still a lot of ball left here as the top 4 teams all have two conference games left.

Mountain West: This conference is RETARDED!!! Am I crazy??? It looks like Boise State is playing 8 conference games but Colorado State and UNLV are only playing 7 because of their agreement with Washington State/Oregon State? In all likelihood BYU is in and so is Colorado State. Colorado State did not play Boise or UNLV. UNLV's only loss is a close loss to Boise St. UNLV would be on the outside looking in. Some weird scenarios: BYU finishes 7-1 and both Colorado State and UNLV finish 6-1. What of Boise implodes and finishes 6-2 but both UNLV and Colorado St finish 6-1???

SEC: A lot of football left. Georgia is the only team done with conference pay at 6-2. Then there are potentially 4 other teams vying for the other spot if both Texas and Texas A&M get another loss, and they play each other after Thanksgiving so that is an elimination game.

Sun Belt: Logjam in both divisions still with 3-4 teams still vying for the division titles.

A real banger last night. Georgia Tech relinquishes the lead but then scores with 18 seconds left to go ahead 30-29 but gives up a big pass play to allow NC State to try a 58 yd FG but it failed.

Where do you see Boise State playing 8 conference games? They are 6-0 in conference and play 1 more conference game against Wyoming. Oregon State is their last game, but they are not in MWC.
