Texas football doesn’t have much of a chance at all to make the College Football Playoff at this point. But head coach Tom Herman still believes.

Since Texas football, the Oklahoma schools, and Iowa State Cyclones all have at least two losses on the season, or in Big 12 play in particular, the conference’s shot to have a representative in the College Football Playoff this year has waned greatly. It looks right now like the Big 12 and PAC-12 could both be left out of the College Football Playoff.
