Another close call for TCU and another uninspiring effort by Ohio State haven’t yet dislodged the pair from the projected College Football Playoff field. But the Horned Frogs and Buckeyes aren’t on solid ground with the meat of their schedule coming in the second half of the season.
There are changes underneath the playoff field with Stanford moving into the Rose Bowl and Utah replacing USC in the Fiesta Bowl. Expect more changes to the field next week with another set of big games this weekend.
A reminder: Some conferences may not fulfill their allotment. Asterisks denote a replacement pick.
