College Football Playoff Bracket Week 10 Live Projections: Group of 5 Bid Up for Grabs

Week 10 of the college football season presents significant challenges for several College Football Playoff (CFP) contenders. In the Group of 5, the American Athletic Conference race remains unpredictable with South Florida, Memphis, Tulane, and North Texas all in contention for a CFP bid. South Florida faces upcoming games against UTSA and Navy, crucial for maintaining their conference title hopes.

The top-ranked teams currently include Ohio State, Indiana, Texas A&M, and Alabama. Ohio State's defense has only allowed 5.9 points per game, with standout quarterback Julian Sayin leading the nation in passing efficiency. Indiana's strong performance this season has sparked debate about their potential ranking above Ohio State or Texas A&M based on their record.

Alabama's path to the CFP may be jeopardized by potential losses in their final SEC games, despite strong victories over teams like Georgia and Vanderbilt. Texas A&M bolstered their standing with a significant win in Baton Rouge, causing turmoil at LSU.
