Bowl Projections: Live Updates of the Postseason Picture as Week 13's Games Go Final
It’s the last fully loaded Saturday of the 2018 college football regular season, and by the end of this weekend we’ll have a much better sense of the postseason picture. Only Notre Dame can truly clinch its spot in the final four with a Week 13 win, but Alabama and Clemson can take a big step in that direction by taking down their in-state rivals, and the New Year's Six lineup should get much clearer once every conference title game matchup is set.
Want to track your team’s possible postseason fate in real time? Below, a look at the latest projections for all 39 bowl matchups and the updated College Football Playoff field, which will be adjusted as Week 13’s results roll in. An asterisk (*) denotes that an at-large team is filling a spot left vacant by the conference under contract with that bowl.
