College football bowl projections: What Washington's win means as season hits halfway mark

It would seem that the results from Week 7 had little impact on the current College Football Playoff situation halfway through the season with Washington's defeat of Oregon solidifying the Huskies' spot in the field with Georgia, Michigan and Florida State.
However, the victory by Washington was significant in providing some margin of error should a loss come as the team navigates the difficult Pac-12 schedule that finishes with Southern California, Utah, Oregon State and Washington State. That margin of error likely no longer exists for the Ducks, who also face a rough run-in. And what about Georgia? Does the injury to and subsequent surgery for standout tight end Brock Bowers make the Bulldogs vulnerable with three ranked teams still left on their schedule?
There should be more to sort out this week, starting with No. 6 Penn State's trip to No. 3 Ohio State helping to start sort out the three unbeaten left in the Big Ten Utah and Southern California — already with one loss each — will face off in what effectively is an elimination game for the playoff race. Alabama and Tennessee also have one loss in the SEC and they will clash in Tuscaloosa.

Reminder: Some conferences may not fulfill their bowl allotment. Asterisks denote a replacement pick. James Madison is eligible for a bowl if there are not enough six-win teams to fill all the spots.
