The Michigan Wolverines have certainly been the team to beat this season. Now after a crushing victory over the clueless Iowa Hawkeyes, they become the first team to enter the NCAA playoffs. This is their third consecutive appearance in the playoffs and one that might fetch them the title.

Recently, the popular analyst and host Rich Eisen shared his views on the teams that can join the Wolverines in the playoffs. In his latest video, Eisen could be seen being elated about Michigan making it to the Big 10 playoffs. Given all the controversies that Michigan was involved in this year, it’s heartening to see them in the playoffs. He also spoke about the other teams that are also on the horizon of making it there, with some hope that the results fall in their favor.

Rich Eisen drops three teams that can go into the playoffs

The NCAA football season 2023 is fast coming to a close. Teams are now entering the last leg of the season and are winding up with their games. This implies that the prospective teams would be going to the next stage- the playoffs. While Michigan became the third consecutive team to enter the playoffs. Rich Eisen gave his opinions about the other three sides that can also make the cut!

He shot a video of himself wearing the Michigan Wolverines jersey and naming his three top choices. He said- “For the college football committee to deal with, don’t you think? All right here’s what they should do, they should have Michigan (Wolverines), Washington (Huskies), and Florida State (Seminoles) in they’re undefeated.”

Eisen further highlighted that these teams are the obvious choice for going to the playoffs stage, but the CFP won’t let it happen. Here’s what would be happening, as pointed out by Eisen. “I think Florida State despite going undefeated with a backup quarterback and looking shall we say very iffy. I think they’re out. I think Alabama and Texas make it.” Rich Eisen rounded off his comments by saying that the Texas Longhorns should also be making their way to the playoffs along with Alabama.

All the teams that the analyst mentioned have been in supreme touch and have done enough to secure their spot. While Michigan, Huskies, and Seminoles have maintained a stellar record all through the season, the Longhorns have lost just a solitary game.

One thing is for sure – that the playoffs would be a highly competitive affair. It’d be interesting to see how the teams go from here on and then it’ll come down to the final two in the finals. Till then, the excitement and anticipation keep on growing!
