That result has given the College Football Playoff portion of the bowl projections an unexpected look. I now have Colorado winning the Big 12 over the Cougars, but I also have the Buffaloes topping out in the final rankings at 13.

The College Football Playoff projections go through some major changes after Week 12 turned wild late in the night

Coming off the second College Football Playoff rankings, there were teams with losses facing potential elimination scenarios. The Georgia Bulldogs and SMU Mustangs needed wins to keep alive conference title or at-large playoff bids.

Here is how the CFP rankings should look going into Week 13. 1. OREGON (11-0). Won 16-13 at Wisconsin (5-5). Next game: Nov. 30 vs. Washington (6-5). 2. OHIO STATE (9-1). Won 31-7 at Northwestern (4-6). Next game: Nov. 23 vs. Indiana (10-0). 3. TEXAS (9-1). Won 20-10 at Arkansas (5-5). Next game: Nov. 23 vs. Kentucky (4-6).

A few weeks ago, the Kansas State Wildcats were in control of their destiny. Now, they no longer have to worry about it. The Wildcats fell 24-14 to Arizona St

Georgia's win over Tennessee in Week 12 only makes the SEC that much more interesting. Plus, more trends from the weekend.

No. 17 Colorado (8-2, 6-1 in Big 12) drilled Utah (4-6, 1-6 in Big 12) in an emphatic 49-24 Week 12 win to keep its hope of earning an automatic CFP bid alive.
