What we learned about the College Football Playoff: Who's in? Who's safe? Who's on bubble?
Briefly

"We have seen college football teams back into the College Football Playoff, losing their last regular-season or conference title game and still earning a spot in the four-team field."
"Now with a 12-team CFP, backing into the Playoff has a whole new meaning. Looking at you, Ohio State (10-2). Miami (10-2), too."
"The Nittany Lions (11-1) and Ducks look to be safely into the bracket, with the winner getting a bye. Worst case for the Ducks is hosting a first-round game."
"We doubt the committee will punish Georgia for reaching the championship game, though it would be in the Bulldogs' best interest to not get blown out by the Longhorns."
