There’s only one week left for teams to make their case for the College Football Playoff: Conference Championship Weekend.

Heading into this weekend, it looks like there are only a handful of teams remaining with a realistic shot at the national title.

ESPN’s Playoff Predictor has analyzed the College Football Playoff odds of every team and found that only three teams appear to be locks: Ohio State, Clemson and LSU. Outside of them, there’s a four-way race between Georgia, Utah, Oklahoma and Baylor.

Here are the teams with the best College Football Playoff odds, ranked by ESPN’s Playoff Predictor:

  1. Ohio State: 98% chance to make playoff, 39% chance to win title
  2. Clemson: 94% chance to make playoff, 29% chance to win title
  3. LSU: 92% chance to make playoff, 19% chance to win title
  4. Georgia: 53% chance to make playoff, 8% chance to win title
  5. Oklahoma: 37% chance to make playoff, 3% chance to win title
  6. Utah: 9% chance to make playoff, <1% chance to win title
  7. Baylor: 8% chance to make playoff, <1% chance to win title
  8. Wisconsin: 5% chance to make playoff, <1% chance to win title
  9. Florida: 3% chance to make playoff, <1% chance to win title
  10. Alabama: <1% chance to make playoff, <1% chance to win title

Of the 10 teams on the list, only eight of them are playing on Championship Weekend.

Florida and Alabama will have a tough time getting in even with the most chaotic of all possible results.

Who do you think will make the College Football Playoff?
