LSU 10th in CFP rankings, in position to play in a New Year's 6 Bowl

LSU is 10th in the new college football playoff rankings, which is good news for the Tigers chances of playing in a New Year's Six bowl game. Jerry Palm does bowl projections for CBSSports.com and says as long as there are no major upsets in the Big 10 or ACC Championship games, the Tigers should have a postseason game in either Arizona or Georgia.

Northwestern or Pittsburgh winning, either one of them, would knock LSU out, so as long as those two don't win, LSU should find a spot in the Peach or Fiesta Bowl," said Palm. 
 
Palm says if LSU goes to the Peach Bowl they could face Michigan. He says if the Tigers play in the Fiesta Bowl, they'll likely face a Group of 5 opponent like UCF or Boise State out of the Moutain West.
 
LSU's seven overtime loss to Texas A&M cost them three spots in the rankings, but they remain ranked in the Top 10 despite three losses on the season.
