Whatever you would rather! 😂

8–0, and now the Bruins take their perfect record on the road to Minnesota! 🔵🟡 But UCLA fans have some other games worth watching before next weekend. The Rooting Guide had the Bruins at 45.6% CFP odds entering today, and a Nevada upset would’ve been absolutely devastating (−26.6 points). Instead, UCLA took care of business. Now Bruins fans can root for USC over Ohio State, Mississippi State over Texas, and San Diego State over Washington State! Here’s what matters next 👇 therootingguide.com/?team=UC…

First Rose Bowl shutout since 2007 AND an 8–0 start? Pretty incredible. 👀 Yet UCLA entered today with only a 45.6% modeled chance of making the CFP. Today’s 27–0 domination should certainly strengthen the Bruins’ case. And if UCLA fans want to keep watching college football tonight, there are some interesting rooting interests: 🔵 USC over Ohio State: +2.0 CFP pts 🔵 Mississippi State over Texas: +2.2 Here’s what matters next 👇 therootingguide.com/?team=UC…

Not pretty, but BYU kept the dream alive. 🔵⚪ An ASU upset would’ve knocked 34.3 points off BYU’s modeled CFP odds. Instead, the Cougars survive and set up an absolutely MASSIVE Holy War against undefeated Utah next week. And the scoreboard watching isn’t over tonight! An Iowa State win over Oklahoma State would help BYU by 4.6 CFP points, while Mississippi State upsetting Texas adds another 2.0. Here’s what matters next for BYU 👇 therootingguide.com/?team=BY…

“Escape” is definitely the right word 😂 BYU didn’t win pretty, but they avoided a potentially devastating blow to their CFP hopes. Our pregame model: ✅ BYU win: +2.4 CFP pts ❌ ASU win: −34.3 pts That’s a massive 36.7-point difference between the two outcomes! And now we’re getting an 8–0 Utah vs. 7–1 BYU Holy War with enormous stakes. If Cougar fans want to keep watching football tonight, here’s who to root for 👇 therootingguide.com/?team=BY…

7–1 New Mexico football. What a time to be alive indeed! 🐺 And there’s even more reason for Lobos fans to stay glued to college football tonight. New Mexico entered the weekend with a 4.2% CFP chance. A Texas State upset of Boise State would add another 5.0 modeled points to those odds! That’s a potentially MASSIVE result in the G6 playoff race. The Rooting Guide shows exactly how every other game impacts New Mexico’s CFP path. Here’s what matters next 👇 therootingguide.com/?team=Ne…

7–1. 4–0 in conference play. And the Lobos are legitimately in the CFP conversation! 🐺 New Mexico entered today with 4.2% playoff odds, and the win over San José State keeps that dream alive.

New Mexico handled its own business. Now it’s time to become Texas State fans. 😂 Here’s what matters next 👇 therootingguide.com/?team=Ne…

Still. Not. Dead. 🦆 Oregon’s CFP chances were just 4.8% entering today, and a Northwestern loss would’ve made that path even narrower. Instead, a 34–26 win gives the Ducks another reason to keep dreaming. And the scoreboard watching isn’t over! Oregon fans should be rooting for Fresno State over Oregon State tonight, among other results. Here’s how every remaining game impacts Oregon’s CFP hopes 👇 therootingguide.com/?team=Or…

Hard to ask for much more than that on the road! Utah is 8–0, and a 49–25 win at Cincinnati is exactly the kind of result that strengthens both the résumé and the CFP outlook. Our pregame model had: ✅ Utah win: +7.1 CFP pts ❌ Utah loss: −23.6 pts That’s a 30.7-point difference between the two outcomes! And with the Holy War looming, the Utes have given themselves some valuable margin for error. Here’s what matters next, including the other games today that help Utah 👇 therootingguide.com/?team=Ut…

8–0 heading into the Holy War. Hard to write a much better script than that. 👀 And today’s road win at Cincinnati was huge for Utah’s CFP path. The Rooting Guide had Utah at 74.1% pregame CFP odds, with a win adding 7.1 modeled points. That gives the Utes a little more breathing room heading into next week’s enormous rivalry matchup. And Utah fans still have games worth following tonight, including Arkansas–Missouri and Oklahoma State–Iowa State! Here’s what matters next for Utah 👇 therootingguide.com/?team=Ut…

Hard to argue with that kind of dominance. Wake Forest is becoming one of the most interesting stories in college football. 🎩 The Deacs entered today with a 16.6% modeled CFP chance, and a 51–7 win could give them an even bigger boost than the pregame model anticipated. But here’s what’s fascinating: Wake’s playoff hopes are also tied to games all over the country. Mississippi State beating Texas, Georgia Tech beating Pitt, and even Fresno State beating Oregon State would all help. The Rooting Guide shows the impact of every other game today, including those already finished. Here’s what matters next 👇 therootingguide.com/?team=Wa…

At this rate, Wake Forest might force the entire country to pay attention 😂🎩 7–1. Another blowout. And a legitimate CFP path.

187–31 over four games is ridiculous.

And they’re not done getting help today! Mississippi State over Texas (+1.7 pts) and Georgia Tech over Pitt (+1.1) would both help.
