Tom Fornelli of CBS Sports put out an article yesterday where he listed five teams that had losing records in 2022 that might be capable of making the national title game in 2023, ala TCU.
TCU had a 5-7 record in 2021, and in 2022 played Georgia for the national title. It was the worst title game ever, but the Horned Frogs played well enough to that point to make it there.
Fornelli’s list includes:
- Auburn
- Miami
- Michigan State
- Nebraska
- Texas A&M
Here is part of what Fornelli said about Nebraska:
While the Big Ten has Ohio State, Michigan and Penn State, they all play in the East.
