This weekend doesn't feature a lot of games that have high stakes, but there is one game that could really shake up the College Football Playoffs when Michigan visits Wisconsin in Madison for ESPN's College GameDay. FOX Sports' Colin Cowherd believes that it's the end of the Badgers' Playoff hopes though as he says they are going down this weekend:

Cowherd does make a good point that Wisconsin has not faced a legitimate offense all year, but Michigan's isn't much better than the other ones. The Wolverines are averaging only about 28 points a game and are averaging 373 yards per game, which is 94th in the country. However, Cowherd's argument is that Michigan has better personnel than the likes of BYU, FAU and Utah State.
Should Wisconsin lose, the Badgers would definitely fall out of the race for a Playoff spot and could open up the path for Ohio State or Penn State to take their spot.
