Another head scratcher this week with the CFP semifinals being played on Thursday and Friday nights. It’s quite comical that they can’t get their crap together and just play college football games on Saturday.
Indiana absolutely smoked Alabama, winning 38-3. Miami took down Ohio State 24-14. Ole Miss came back to beat Georgia 39-34. Oregon blanked Texas Tech 23-0.
So we’re down to a rematch with #1 Indiana and #2 Oregon. Can Indiana win again? Or does Oregon get revenge?
Is #7 Miami a cinderella team? Last team in the playoffs. I don’t think so. They were pretty highly ranked at points throughout the season but a couple losses to SMU and Louisville dropped them in the rankings. They face #5 Ole Miss who went toe to toe with Georgia and survived the slugfest. Ole Miss vs. Miami. This one should be close.
Here are the matchups in the quarterfinal round of the College Football playoff:
| Seed | Home team | vs | Seed | Visitor |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| #1 | (1) Indiana | vs. | #5 | (2) Oregon |
| #6 | (5) Ole Miss | vs. | #12 | (7) Miami |
