CBS Sports updated its 2021 bowl projections after a wild week of college football. With a record-setting 13 losses from AP Top 25 teams in the first two weeks, the postseason outlook has shifted dramatically.

The new projections call for Clemson and Ohio State to miss the College Football Playoff this season in favor of some new faces. Cincinnati remains the top Group of Five team with a handful of others hoping to make a move up the board. See the full list of CBS Sports’ latest bowl projections below.
