Georgia is the most likely Playoff team, for I believe the first time in history. I'm just happy it's someone outside of the Bama/Clemson/OSU/Oklahoma quad for once. In other news, Michigan now has the best odds of any Big Ten team, not because of schedule advantages but simply because they appear to be a very, very good football team. And the group of five's best hope, Cincinnati, finally improves to all of a 1 in 200 chance of making the field with their comeback win over the Hoosiers.

Ohio State slipped below Michigan up top, but they are still the favorite in the Big Ten East, although it's now just a plurality of a chance instead of their usual majority. Keep an eye on that.
Week 4 Preview

North Carolina State | Clemson | 28.2% | 0.031 |
Wisconsin | Notre Dame | 59.4% | 0.023 |

Georgia Tech | North Carolina | 22.0% | 0.008 |

Oregon | Arizona | 97.3% | 0.003 |
On one hand, this is a very thin week. On the other hand, it really gives you a chance to focus on games that don't involve the perennial Playoff teams. A&M-Arkansas will be really fun. Wisconsin-ND is the rare game that should benefit from the neutral site location (Soldier Field will be rocking). TCU-SMU is important-ish. And Nebraska has the chance to become one of the best 2-3 teams in recent memory with a close loss to the Spartans.
