There's on team in our grouping of 26 to 50 teams that isn't going bowling.

Several are going to conference championships, a few are in the CFP hunt if they can get a little bit of luck, but mostly, these are teams that have something huge to remember.

What will 2024 be about for Michigan? It made Ohio State sad again. How about Syracuse? It knocked out Miami from the College Football Playoff.

They're the teams that did enough good things to matter. They're the teams ranked 26 to 50 in the Week 15 CFN College Football Rankings.
