The Group of Five is now the Group of Six, but the opportunity remains the same for the teams in each of those leagues: You can make the College Football Playoff.
The five highest-ranked conference champions in the College Football Playoff rankings make the 12-team bracket, which means at least one Group of Six team will participate this season.
Boise State did it a year ago, entertaining the country all season with the theatrics of Ashton Jeanty. The Broncos are once again poised to contend for a playoff spot. DraftKings has them listed as the betting to take the Group of Six’s automatic bid at +180. favorite But they’re far from the only contender.
Eight other teams from the Group of Six drew preseason Top 25 votes, and plenty of others enter the season with hopes of winning their league and making a run.
Ahead of the 2025 season these are the CBS Sports expert picks for the Group of Six. They include all of our picks per league and also everyone’s selection for the team that will reach the playoff.
