Yes Idaho goes down to the FCS, but that means that they can an official NCAA Football championship without a trickery CFP-Comittee, sponsored by ESPN, which help Ohio State info a CFP-Championship Game.

This site has South Alabama in the Arizona Bowl. Also, I do not know if you want to wait until it is “official” but Oklahoma is in the Sugar, Western Michigan is in the Cotton. Michigan is in the Orange.

Oddsmakers have the semifinal game times posted. Peach Bowl at 3:00 EST and Fiesta Bowl at 7:00 EST.

GO BLUE!!!!!!!
Btw we will beat y’all!! Ohio states should not have won they JT Barrett didn’t cross the line PERIOD

I think that Itah playing Indiana and then Minnesota playing Washington State is kinda screwing the B1G.

Every time i get a blues feeling, i look at the 2016 CFP decision, and then i get happy. Ohio State in a good joke!
