The College Football Playoff field is set with LSU, Ohio State, Clemson and Oklahoma.
The only debate? If LSU or Ohio State gets the No. 1 seed and therefore avoids Clemson in the semifinals.
LSU, Ohio State and Clemson will all be at least a touchdown favorite over Oklahoma, so it's a big advantage to avoid the Tigers.
While Ohio State entered this week No. 1, I do think LSU gets it after the title games. Two of Ohio State's top 25 wins coming against the same team will hurt the Buckeyes, and a lackluster performance in the Big Ten Championship compared to LSU's efforts against Georgia will be enough to get the Tigers the top spot.
Below you'll find the projections for every bowl game and the College Football Playoff, which we've been updating throughout the day on Saturday, plus projected point spreads on those matchups via our oddsmaker-style power ratings.

New Year's Six Bowls
There are still a few unknowns in the New Year's Six bowl.
The Big Ten's Rose Bowl bid will go to either Wisconsin or Penn State, since Ohio State is going to the playoff. The Badgers entered the week at No. 8 in the CFP rankings, with Penn State at No. 10, but they might have put up enough of a fight to stay in the top 10.
There's really a razor thin margin between the Nittany Lions and Badgers. Both finished the regular season 10-2 with a loss to Ohio State and wins over Michigan and Iowa. It could come down to whether or not the committee will penalize Wisconsin for taking a third loss, which seems foolish considering it only lost another game because it won the Big Ten West.
Baylor gets the Big 12's Sugar Bowl spot with Oklahoma going to the College Football Playoff, and Georgia gets the other Sugar Bowl spot as the SEC runner up.
Memphis was the highest-ranked Group of Five team entering the week and won the best G5 conference, so it will head to the Cotton Bowl to face Penn State or Wisconsin — whichever team doesn't get to the Rose Bowl.
Every Other Bowl Game
One six-win MAC team is probably going to get left out because there are 79 bowl eligible teams for 78 spots. We have Kent State out right now.
If Wisconsin had been blown out by Ohio State, the bowl landscape at the top would have changed a little bit. That would have put Penn State in the Rose Bowl, either Auburn or Utah in the Cotton Bowl, and that would have affected both the SEC, Big Ten and Pac-12 pecking orders.
It's a weird year for the SEC with only nine teams bowl eligible and three going to New Year's Six bowls. Many of their lower-tiered games, like the Birmingham Bowl and Independence Bowl, will have to be filled by other teams.
