It’s incredibly difficult to project what the 2022 season might look like in college football. Still, 247Sports is making some way-too-early projections for next year’s New Year’s Six bowls.

Even though there’s been plenty of changes with coach movement, players transferring and recruiting still not entirely finalized, 247Sports is looking ahead. And it has some interesting matchups.

Here’s a look at next year’s projected New Year’s Six lineup:

Based on this projection, Ohio State will be returning to the College Football Playoff. Michigan State would be heading to the Orange Bowl and Michigan is off to the Rose Bowl Game.

247Sports also believes the SEC will have two teams in the field again next season, with both Georgia and Alabama reaching the College Football Playoff for a second consecutive season.
