College Football Bowl Projections After Week 9

The start of college football’s 2018-19 bowl season is just under two months away, but with Week 9 in the books, it’s never too early to take a peek at the potential matchups this postseason. Alabama, Clemson, Notre Dame and Michigan are Athlon's projected picks after Week 9 to reach the CFB Playoff. The Crimson Tide and Tigers are a notch above the rest of the NCAA, with the Fighting Irish up next, followed by Michigan as the predicted champion of the Big Ten. LSU, Georgia, Ohio State and Oklahoma are the top teams with one loss still in the mix to make the playoff.
