The No. 9 Missouri Tigers enter Week 6 of the season as one of four undefeated SEC teams. The race for the College Football Playoff is bound to leave behind one of the conference's elite teams as the SEC occupies seven spots in the top 15 of the most recent AP Poll.

As it stands, Missouri would be able to squeeze into the No. 10 playoff seed.

The next step in working toward securing a chance at the playoffs will come this week for the Tigers, traveling to College Station, Texas to take on No. 25 Texas A&M after a bye week for Missouri.

Even with the Tigers taking a bye week, there's been some shifting in where they're projected to finish. Here's where Missouri landed in bowl projections from different sites, including a playoff matchup with a familiar foe.
