The top four seeds still get byes, and the Big Ten and SEC are poised to rule. First-round games kick off Dec. 18-19 on campus, then quarterfinals hit the Fiesta Bowl Dec. 30, followed by a New Year’s Day triple-header at the Cotton, Rose, and Peach Bowls. Semifinals are Jan. 14-15 at the Orange and Sugar Bowls, culminating in the national title in Vegas on Jan. 25. Expect fireworks: USC, Miami, Texas, and Oregon are hot, with Boise State staging a comeback. Quarterfinals could bring Ohio State vs. Texas and Notre Dame vs. Oregon, while the Rose Bowl might see Indiana vs. Ole Miss and Georgia vs. USC. Semifinals could feature Indiana vs. Texas and Georgia vs. Notre Dame — and the ultimate showdown? Indiana vs. Notre Dame for the title.
