I covered
the B1G-E here and I covered
the B1G-W here. Now for the rest of the P5:
ACC-Atlantic:
Clemson leads at 6-1 with only one game to play (because they have two OOC games down the stretch). They are tied in the loss column with NCST and they beat NCST H2H. If they win their last ACC game (vFSU, this weekend) they win the ACC-Atlantic. If Clemson loses to FSU then NCST can win the ACC-Atlantic by winning out (@BC, @Wake, vUNC).
All other ACC-Atlantic teams are eliminated.
ACC-Coastal:
Miami has all but clinched. The Hurricanes are 6-0 and their closest competitors are the two Virginia Schools at 3-2. Virginia Tech cannot get to the ACCCG because they already have a H2H loss to the Hurricanes. Thus, the only way for Miami to miss the ACCCG is if they lose their last two ACC games (vUVA, @Pitt) and for Virginia to win their last three (@Lou, @Miami, vVaTech). One more Miami win or Virginia loss clinches it for the Hurricanes.
B12:
I think there might be a theoretical possibility of a 3-loss team sneaking into the B12CG but I highly doubt it so I will confine my analysis to the five teams with two or less conference losses:
- 5-1 Oklahoma vsTCU this weekend
- 5-1 TCU @OU this weekend
- 4-2 OkSU @ISU this weekend
- 4-2 ISU vOkSU this weekend
- 4-2 WVU @KSU this weekend
As I see it, OkSU, ISU, and WVU face elimination every weekend. The Oklahoma/TCU winner takes firm control especially if ISU (which beat them both) loses to OkSU.
P12-N:
5-1 Washington travels to 5-2 Stanford this weekend. A Huskies' win would eliminate Stanford.
5-2 WSU travels to Utah this weekend then has a week off before the Apple Cup.
5-2 Stanford has to beat Washington this weekend to stay in the race. They'll still need help due to a H2H loss to WSU.
Oregon, California, and OrSU are already eliminated.
P12-S:
6-1 USC has all but clinched because they have wins over the two Arizona schools which are both 4-2. Utah, UCLA, and Colorado are all eliminated. One more USC win or one more loss by each of the Wildcats and Sundevils clinches the P12CG for the Trojans.
SEC-E:
Georgia became the first P5 school to officially mathematically clinch their spot in their CG last weekend when their win and Kentucky's loss wrapped up the SEC-E.
SEC-W:
Alabama can clinch this weekend with at win (@MissSt) and an Auburn loss (vUGA). A Bama win eliminates MissSt no matter what happens in the Auburn/UGA game.
LSU, aTm, Ole Miss, and Ark are already eliminated. (We covered LSU at length last week. LSU is eliminated because the best they can do is a 6-2 tie with Bama and Auburn. Auburn would win that based on divisional record. MissSt could theoretically also be in that tie but that does not help LSU because they lost to MissSt.
MissSt is in the race. If they win out to finish 6-2 they will win the division as long as Auburn loses twice and with UGA and Bama still on Auburn's schedule that is certainly possible.
