In the name of diversity, it would be nice to see LSU win it all. It would be the first team to win a national championship with a non-English-speaking head coach.
We'll see. Still a few games left in the season.
Right now, the ranks of the undefeated are: LSU, Clemson, Baylor, Ohio State, Minnesota. (Not a single Group of Five in the lot this year, and there's still three weeks to go plus the conference championships. Not a good year for the mid-majors.) So if you're a change-of-pace guy like me, you're rooting for LSU, Minnesota, and Baylor.
*LSU: After countless times being just a hair short, if they win out, they break through.
*Baylor: Their comeback story is compelling after a one-win season two years ago. Their biggest challenge will be Jalen Hurts and Oklahoma next week. They win, their chance at the CFP goes way up.
*Minnesota: They're the closest thing to a Cinderella this year. They still have some big challenges ahead of them.
*Clemson: again. yawn. Just pencil them in as the 1 seed in the CFP.
*OSU: Screw Ohio State and their entitled victim mentality. I'm hoping Penn State knocks them off in two weeks and we end up with a clusterbuck for who faces Minnesota (if they sweep the next 3) the Big Ten title... or better yet, both Penn State AND Michigan knock off the Buckeyes and Harbaugh drinks the delicious tears of the Buckeye faithful.
