We now have that much-anticipated baseline we were waiting for. The College Football Playoff Committee released the first set of CFP Rankings for 2021 last Tuesday and it nearly caused a stock selloff.
Are you ready to do it all again?
We’ll now get a set of these rankings each Tuesday until we get to the last CFP Rankings that will determine who gets into the College Football Playoff on Sunday, December 5. That means we get to throw things at the wall five more times until we finally come to grips with the almost impossible job the committee has with just four teams getting into a so-called “playoff.”
Here at Buckeyes Wire, we like to do the impossible. No, we’re not talking about Jim Harbaugh’s chances of beating Ohio State, but we go through an exercise using our own derived formulate that takes several factors into account.

Before you get all in a stir on Tuesday, we’ll try to get you primed for what you’ll see and let you get your wall-punching out of the way so you can not be shocked at all-new College Football Playoff Rankings released Tuesday evening.
