Week 11 of the college football season is upon us with a Saturday full of impactful games that will help sort out the conference and playoff races up to now.

The major players in the SEC and Big Ten are all in action as Georgia looks to build on its statement win over Tennessee from last week and potentially clinch a berth in the SEC Championship Game as early as this weekend.

Ohio State and Michigan are hoping to win their games and stay undefeated in order to use the result of The Game in a few weeks' time to earn a spot in the Big Ten title game and from there, in the College Football Playoff.

Meanwhile, TCU is trying to stay in the lead for the Big 12 on the road to challenger Texas, and Clemson wants to stay at one loss with Louisville coming to Death Valley and a berth in the ACC Championship Game coming up soon.
