With expanded College Football Playoff field, these 20 teams have lost but are still alive

Oregon coach Dan Lanning : "Everything is still on the table for both teams" College Football Playoff will have an additional eight teams.

11 undefeated teams remain, all or most in great position to obtain one of those 12 spots.

There are plenty of one -loss, two -loss and even three -loss power conference teams that remain very much alive.

10 -2 Georgia with losses on the road to Alabama and Texas is likely finding a way into the playoff, especially if Clemson is a playoff team.

Texas A&M Aggies have won five straight, can run the rock ( 232 yards rushing a game) and play great defense ( 17th in scoring) Texas Tech is one of three one -loss Big 12 teams on this list.

An 11 -1 Alabama is n’t getting left out over SEC teams with similar records like A&M , Missouri or even a team it beat, Georgia ? The question is, would a 10 -2 Bama be left out? Missouri Tigers - Losses ( 1 ): at Texas A&m , 41 -10 - What’s left: The game against the Tide in Tuscaloosa on Oct. 26 feels like a playoff elimination game.

The loser is likely out and the winner still has a shot at it.
