The path to the College Football Playoff for each of the top-8 teams in contention

With the reveal of the latest College Football Playoff rankings, we have a good idea of what each team needs to do in this final week to make the final four in order to play for a national championship.

For the four remaining undefeated teams, the mission is simple: win. Though even that may not be enough for Florida State, which could still require a little something extra after losing Jordan Travis for the season — but we’ll get to that later.

The remaining teams, however, definitely need a little help, even with wins. So, I went through the scenarios to figure out the path of least resistance for each, whether they win this weekend to claim conference championships or suffer losses.
