We’re headed down the stretch run in the college football season and division, conference and national championships are on the line. For the teams who aren’t in the elite category, there’s still plenty to play for, most importantly beating their rivals in the final week of the season, but also getting bowl-eligibility to extend their season.

Not only is it important from a financial standpoint to get to a bowl game, but the extra weeks of practice is invaluable, especially for teams loaded with underclassmen, to get a head start on preparation for the 2016 season.

With 38 bowl games this year, we’re looking at 78 college football teams who will have an opportunity to play in a bowl game, take advantage of the extra practice time, cash in on some extra dollars and play in front of a national audience.

With two weeks left in the regular season and one week of conference championships, here’s the bowl projections for the College Football Playoff and all 38 bowl games. These bowl projections are based on how I think things will look at the end of the year and not how they would look after Week 11.

Without any further delay, here are the bowl projections and college football playoff predictions entering Week 12.
