Here's how Indiana can make the College Football Playoff after Week 1

Ed note: This is the first edition of HOOSIERS CFP WATCH, in which Butt will detail exactly what needs to happen in the coming week for Indiana to make the College Football Playoff. Is this satirical? You decide.

The Orange Bowl and the Cotton Bowl, the two semifinal games in this year's College Football Playoff, are obviously a long ways away given that the season just started. It is impossible to achieve goals without having your eyes on the prize though, so we need to be paying attention to where IU's hopes of qualifying stand on a weekly basis.
