Championship Week Schedule: Predictions, Game Previews, Scores, and Betting Lines

This year, Championship Week is more important.

These four spots in the College Football Playoff have been set for the past ten seasons. This year, however, it is for placement in the new, expanded CFP, and for the ACC and Big 12, it will determine who joins Oregon, Penn State, Notre Dame, Texas, Georgia, Ohio State, Indiana, Tennessee, and… probably Alabama.
