The BTCG will be a play-in game barring upsets in other games. Iowa is already in the top four and MSU is on the outside looking in. Because MSU was the team that kept my Buckeyes out of it, I will root for Iowa this week.

 

A close win by Alabama would be almost as shocking as a loss. It will be very hard to watch the Gators.

 

How good is North Carolina? The way Clemson has been scratching and biting everyone this season, I don't see how those Tigers can lose in Charlotte. The Tar Heels need to declaw them.

 

In the Pacific 12, Stanford should not have any issues. This is the first time I ever heard of a team playing for the division or conference championship the same year they fired their head coach.
