NCAA Football: 8 teams that control their own destiny

#7 Georgia Bulldogs (9-1)

Georgia v Auburn

While there are six Power Five conference teams with fewer than two losses and #7 Georgia are the only team not currently ranked in the top 6, winning out will make Georgia the SEC champions with a 12-1 record and get them into the College Football Playoff. Because #2 Clemson and #3 Miami will battle each other in the ACC championship game, one of them must lose, thus moving Georgia up to #6 at worst.

Because #1 Alabama and #6 Auburn will battle each other in the regular season, one of them must also lose, thus moving Georgia up to #5 at worst. And because the winner of that game would then take on Georgia, a win over whichever that team is would move Georgia up to #4 at worst.

Just as the case is with Auburn, FiveThirtyEight gives Georgia a 94% chance of making the College Football Playoff if they win out, all other things being equal. The Bulldogs take on the Kentucky Wildcats this weekend before closing the regular season out with a matchup against the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets. They will then play in the SEC championship game against the winner of the Iron Bowl, which features #1 Alabama and #6 Auburn.
