As the College Football Playoff (CFP) selection approaches, concerns arise about teams like Georgia, SMU, and Boise State potentially missing out due to losses in conference championship games.

Georgia is likely safe regardless of their outcome, but SMU and Boise State face elimination risks if they lose to lower-ranked teams. The committee's decisions will impact which teams secure playoff spots and byes.
