Playoff Dark Horses: Arizona State, Virginia Tech & Others Could Ride Favorable Schedules Into the Playoff Discussion

Playoff Dark Horses: Arizona State, Virginia Tech & Others Could Ride Favorable Schedules Into the Playoff Discussion

Minnesota received seven total points in the preseason AP top 25 last year. Eleven weeks later, the Gophers were 9-0 and ranked eighth in the College Football Playoff Rankings.

While Minnesota earned that ranking thanks to a win over Penn State four days earlier, they were largely 9-0 and in the playoff discussion thanks to a favorable schedule. Kentucky and Washington State made similar jumps in 2018, rising from under the radar into the real playoff discussion come early November. Who could be a deep dark horse for the College Football Playoff this year?

This week on the High Motor podcast, we make arguments for Arizona State, Virginia Tech, Indiana, and others to ride favorable schedules into the real playoff discussion.
