ESPN college football analyst Heather Dinich is bullish on the Southeastern Conference through the Week 5 action, projecting 6 league teams to make the 12-team College Football Playoff field.
Dinich has Miami, Ohio State and Oregon as her top 3 before ranking Texas A&M – which escaped visiting Auburn 16-10 on Saturday at No. 4. Ole Miss is at No. 5 on Dinich’s list after the Rebels downed No. 4 LSU 24-19 in Oxford. She then ranks Oklahoma at No. 6 despite the Sooners enjoying an idle week and being without quarterback John Mateer following hand surgery.
Dinich says Alabama re-established itself as a CFP contender and ranks the Tide and No. 8 after a gritty 24-21 victory at No. 5 Georgia. She then bumps the Bulldogs down to No. 9 after they saw their 33-game home winning streak tumble Saturday night.
Tennessee checks in at No. 11 on Dinich’s top 12 CFP contenders list after the 15th-ranked Volunteers eked out a 41-34 overtime victory at Mississippi State.
