The College Football Playoff (CFP) has been announced, and not everyone is happy about it. Florida State, despite being the first undefeated Power 5 conference champion, was snubbed from the playoffs due to their quarterback's season-ending injury. The CFP selection committee chairman, Boo Corrigan, stated that without their star quarterback, Florida State was a different team and was voted fifth, with Alabama taking the fourth spot. The four playoff teams selected were Michigan, Washington, Texas, and Alabama, setting up two exciting matchups on New Year's Day.Michigan, led by coach Jim Harbaugh, has had an impressive season, winning their third straight conference championship. They enter the playoffs undefeated and will face off against Alabama, who has been on a winning streak since their early-season loss to Texas. Texas, led by coach Steve Sarkisian, secured their first Big 12 title since 2009 and will face Washington in a rematch of last year's Alamo Bowl.
The odds for the national championship are close between Michigan and Alabama, showing that the two teams are evenly matched. Texas' victory in the Big 12 championship game has solidified their place in the playoffs, and Washington's undefeated regular season earned them the second spot.
Despite the controversy surrounding the selection process, the stage is set for exciting and competitive games. Each team has their own strengths and will be aiming to prove themselves on the national stage. Fans and bettors alike are eagerly awaiting these matchups, and it will be interesting to see who comes out on top and advances to the championship game.
