This weekend marks one of the most intriguing slates of conference championship games we have seen in the playoff era. In the College Football Playoff Committee’s most recent top-10, eight teams had one or zero losses, meaning there’s still plenty of teams that could make the final four.

Michigan and the Big Ten find themselves in a unique spot, as the Big Ten Championship seems to be the one Power Five championship drawing the least amount of buzz— mostly due to a bloated 22-point spread — while other games are projected to be closer.
