The first of six College Football Playoff rankings has been released and the committee members have shown that it’s not how much you win, but rather how you win that will keep you in the CFP conversation.
In the first rankings, the SEC and Big Ten, two of the most competitive conferences in college football, dominated in the projected bracket. This dominance is significant as it indicates the strength of these conferences and the quality of their teams. Four SEC teams, including the one-loss Georgia Bulldogs, Texas Longhorns, Tennessee Volunteers and two-loss Alabama Crimson Tide, claimed a bid. From the Big Ten, undefeated Oregon Ducks, Penn State Nittany Lions and Indiana Hoosiers, as well as the one loss Ohio State Buckeyes, managed to keep their name in the CFP conversation in the first rankings.
The remaining teams that made the first 12-team bracket were as follows: undefeated Miami Hurricanes at the No. 3 seed, undefeated BYU Cougars at the No. 4 seed, one-loss Notre Dame Fighting Irish at the No. 10 seed and lastly the Boise State Broncos at the No. 12 seed. Each of these teams has its own unique story and journey to the rankings.
As the college football season heads towards its climax with Week 11 games, the teams are on tenterhooks, hoping they’ve done enough to secure their position ahead of the second rankings release. The anticipation is palpable as the teams await their fate in the CFP conversation.
