After another riveting round of college football action over the weekend another top-10 team fell and five ranked teams lost. That has considerably shaken up the bowl projections, with movement as high as the New Year’s Six bowl games.

Oregon scored the most impressive win of the weekend with a shellacking of Utah. Meanwhile, Oklahoma tripped up to lose its first game and cede its stranglehold atop the Big 12.

How did the Oregon and Oklahoma games, as well as dozens of others over the weekend, help shake up this week’s college football bowl projections from ESPN experts Mark Schlabach and Kyle Bonagura? Let’s take a look inside.

CFP National Championship

NRG Stadium (Houston)
Monday, Jan. 8, 7:30 p.m., ESPN and the ESPN App
Bonagura: Georgia vs. Michigan
Schlabach: Georgia vs. Michigan

For the first time in a few weeks, the bowl projections for the national title game remained unchanged. Georgia has firmly established itself as the best team in the country, and it looked the part in dismantling Florida 43-20 over the weekend. Michigan, though, has been every bit as dominant against its fairly easy schedule, pounding opponents into submission to reach 8-0 on the season. This is definitely the safe pick for the title game at this point.

CFP Semifinal at the Rose Bowl

Monday, Jan. 1, 5 p.m., ESPN and the ESPN App
Bonagura: Michigan vs. Florida State
Schlabach: Michigan vs. Florida State

This matchup has switched around for both Bonagura and Schlabach, as they’ve clearly flipped some positioning between Washington and Florida State. Previously both had Washington penciled in to face Michigan. But after a dominant win over Wake Forest this weekend, Florida State is solidifying its claim as the top ACC team. And it isn’t particularly close right now.

Caesars Superdome (New Orleans)
Monday, Jan. 1, 8:45 p.m., ESPN and the ESPN App
Bonagura: Georgia vs. Washington
Schlabach: Georgia vs. Washington

As noted above, the two ESPN writers flipped around the playoff matchups even though they didn’t actually change the playoff teams themselves. Washington has dropped to the fourth spot in the playoff seeding, getting the honor of taking on Georgia. That would be quite the stylistic clash and a chance for the Pac-12 to prove it can unlock an elite SEC defense. In any case, it would certainly be fun to watch.

Goodyear Cotton Bowl Classic

Friday, Dec. 29
AT&T Stadium (Arlington, Texas)
8 p.m., ESPN and the ESPN App
Bonagura: Alabama vs. Oklahoma
Schlabach: Penn State vs. Texas

Despite Oklahoma’s loss to Kansas this weekend, neither ESPN writer has changed their picks for the Cotton Bowl this week. Bonagura already had Oklahoma in the Cotton Bowl, the top Big 12 team missing out on the College Football Playoff. But the bowl projections for Schlabach include Texas in this spot. It’s interesting that despite the change in results this weekend, neither opted to change their picks for the Cotton Bowl.

Saturday, Dec. 30
Mercedes-Benz Stadium (Atlanta)
Noon, ESPN and the ESPN App
Bonagura: Texas vs. Air Force
Schlabach: Alabama vs. Notre Dame

There was only one change in this week’s bowl projections for the Peach Bowl, with Schlabach swapping in Notre Dame for Oklahoma thanks to the Sooners’ loss this weekend. On the other hand, Bonagura has Texas getting into the Peach Bowl as the second Big 12 team in the New Year’s Six mix, while he’s got Air Force ranked as the top Group of Five team.

Saturday, Dec. 30
Hard Rock Stadium (Miami Gardens, Florida)
4 p.m., ESPN and the ESPN App
Bonagura: Louisville vs. Ohio State
Schlabach: Louisville vs. Ohio State

There were no changes this week on the Orange Bowl projections as both opted to remain with a Louisville vs. Ohio State matchup. This would put Louisville into the Orange Bowl as the top-ranked ACC team not in the playoff, a good bet right now after Louisville dispatched Duke in an impressive 23-0 shutout over the weekend. Meanwhile, Ohio State gets a New Year’s Six bid as a non-playoff Big Ten squad.

Vrbo Fiesta Bowl

Monday, Jan. 1
State Farm Stadium (Glendale, Arizona)
1 p.m., ESPN and the ESPN App
Bonagura: Oregon vs. Penn State
Schlabach: Oregon vs. Air Force

Similarly, no changes this week to the bowl projections for the Fiesta Bowl. Bonagura is sticking with Oregon vs. Penn State as the matchup, while Schlabach sees Oregon vs. Air Force, the top Group of Five team. Oregon’s big win, though, will likely put it on the cusp of playoff consideration should additional unbeatens fall. The Ducks are going to have a quality resume even with one loss.
