Which college football teams are truly thinking about a national title in 2024? Which are aiming to make the playoff? Which could be playoff dark horses? Which are rebuilding, or happy to hope for a bowl?

From Georgia to Notre Dame, from Texas to Ohio State, from Ole Miss to Iowa State, on this Kings of the North, Doug Lesmerises and Bill Landis break all 68 Power Conference teams into six tiers for this season. And, by luck, they wound up with a pretty even breakdown of the sport.

The six tiers and how many teams landed in them:
• Title contenders (5)
• Playoff contenders (11)
• Playoff dark horses (14)
• Bowl hopefuls (14)
• Rebuilding (14)
• Struggling (10)

Where does your favorite team fit? Doug and Bill categorize all 26 Northern teams, plus everyone in the South, from Florida and Texas A&M to Clemson and USC.

Thanks for joining Kings of the North.
