College Football Playoff Rankings: No change in the top seven teams as Georgia stays No. 1

Not a lot of movement this week as the top seven teams hold steady.

The College Football Playoffs updated their rankings on Tuesday night, and there were not a lot of changes. Georgia stayed in the top spot, and Alabama, Oregon, and Ohio State all stayed put in the top 4. There were actually no changes in the top seven teams, with Notre Dame being the first movement as they jumped to No. 8 after dominating a Brennan Armstrong-less Virginia last weekend.

Cincinnati, still undefeated, is hanging out in the fifth spot and hoping for one of the teams in front of them to slip up. We have just two weeks of the regular season left, meaning the window to make moves is closing rapidly.

Here are the full rankings:

Georgia, Alabama hold steady in new CFP rankings while Ohio State joins top four

Michigan State drops behind Michigan and Cincinnati’s playoff hopes stay alive.

The College Football Playoff released the second iteration of their rankings on Tuesday night, and there was some movement this week. Georgia stayed in the No. 1 spot, followed by No. 2 Alabama also staying steady. Oregon bumped up one spot to No. 3, and No. 4 Ohio State jumped into the spot vacated by Michigan State losing to Purdue.

Cincinnati, which had a case for being massively snubbed at No. 6 last week, moved up a spot to No. 5 despite a lackluster win over Tulsa. Wake Forest wasted an opportunity to vault into the top four with a non-conference loss to North Carolina, falling to No. 12.

We have the first 2020 College Football Playoffs rankings set to be released on Tuesday evening at 7 p.m. ET. As we all know there was a lot of uncertainty around having a college football season at all so to have our first selection show of the season should definitely be celebrated.

This year’s process will be different due to conferences having to delay their schedules. This will be the first of 4 rankings with the 5th and final release to be held on Sunday, Dec. 20 that will decide the top four teams in the playoffs.

The placement will be interesting, being that some teams have played as many as eight games while teams like Ohio State and Oregon have played only three and four games respectively.
