Get ready for some controversial college football predictions! In a bold move, CBS Sports' Brad Crawford has taken a crack at predicting the 2026 College Football Playoff field, and it's a doozy. According to Crawford, the Michigan Wolverines could be the last team in, making it as the 12-seed with three regular-season losses. But here's where it gets interesting: Michigan would be the first team to make the playoff without reaching their league title game, with losses to Oregon, Indiana, and Ohio State. Now, this is where things get heated. While it's unprecedented for a team with three losses to make the CFP, Crawford's prediction sparks an important discussion. Could Michigan really pull off such an impressive turnaround? With enhanced resources and a coach who knows how to get the most out of his roster, it's not entirely out of the question. But is it enough to make the cut? And what does this mean for the rest of the teams? Let's dive into the full 12-team field and explore the possibilities. Are you ready to debate? Let's go!
