The College Football Playoff (CFP) committee has stated teams not playing in conference title games would not be penalized. That means the 12-team field is just about set. There are still a few CFP markets with odds at online sportsbooks: Whether Alabama and/or SMU will make the field and who will be the No.

This week, Brett McMurphy of The Action Network released some updated College Football Playoff and bowl game projections, and he slotted the Ole Miss Rebels in the AutoZone Liberty Bowl against the Kansas State Wildcats. According to the story, Ole Miss would be favored by 6.5 points in that hypothetical contest.

K-State gets invited to this bowl game every time it gets a new name. The Wildcats have previously traveled to Arizona for this game when it was called the Copper Bowl, the Insight.com Bowl, the Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl and the Cactus Bowl.
