Thanks to Stanford upsetting Oregon, only four undefeated teams are left with a legitimate chance to play for the national championship. Currently, Alabama is the only team that is a lock to play in the title game.

Florida State, Ohio State and Baylor will battle it out for the second spot. The Seminoles and Buckeyes have the easiest path to the title game, out of the ACC and Big Ten respectively.

Baylor must face Oklahoma State and Texas in the Big-12. Alabama has Auburn and the SEC championship game against Missouri to contend with to reach a third straight title game.
