Kirk Herbstreit updates top-six CFB rankings: No. 5 scares me

Kirk Herbstreit’s updated top-six

ESPN’s Kirk Herbstreit shared his updated top-six rankings during the USC vs. Notre Dame broadcast on Saturday night.

The big one of the day was Michigan’s beat down over Ohio State, which provided fans with a lot of answers. Additionally, LSU saw its CFP dreams die in a loss to Texas A&M, but the Tigers still have a shot at the SEC championship on Saturday vs. Georgia.

Georgia handled Georgia Tech in Athens. TCU took care of business vs. Iowa State. And USC again proved its a real threat against Notre Dame. And then there’s Alabama…which is somehow still in striking distance. The Tide will need some help, but how classic would it be if Nick Saban managed to avoid the SEC Championship Game and still get a two-loss team in the CFP?
