The College Football Playoff is finally here, and we’re breaking down every Round 1 matchup from top to bottom.

We open with the latest coaching carousel news, including Sherrone Moore’s firing, Kalen DeBoer staying put, and what names like Kenny Dillingham, Jedd Fisch, and Jesse Minter could mean moving forward. Plus, Fernando Mendoza takes home the Heisman and the transfer portal continues to explode with big-name quarterbacks on the move.

From there, we dive deep into each first-round CFP game:

• Oregon vs JMU

• Ole Miss vs Tulane

• Oklahoma vs Alabama

• Miami vs Texas A&M

We break down the key stats, matchups, injuries, and game scripts that could decide each contest, including whether Oregon is peaking at the right time, how Tulane can flip the script against Ole Miss, if Oklahoma or Alabama can run the ball at all, and which version of Texas A&M shows up against Miami.

We wrap it up by locking in our full playoff brackets, making our Round 1 picks, and projecting how the rest of the CFP unfolds all the way to the national championship.

Upsets, data, and bold predictions — it’s all here. 🎯🏈
