No reason for it to happen. If OU and Cincy are really frauds we’ll know soon enough

Should definitely be higher than those two. Basing rankings only on W and L is for simpletons. OU in particular is not a good team.

The way this season has played out, if Cincy doesn't drop a game, then they absolutely deserve to be in the Top 4 and in the CFP.

I don't care about the "their G5 schedule" crap, and the argument that they'll just get destroyed in the first round...well how would that be different than many of the semifinal matchups, or even last year's championship game where Alabama destroyed THE Ohio State?

Wake Forest will be #2 by the time the playoffs start.

I don't have a problem with it. Most teams are very mediocre this year. Bama v UGA will be the real national title game

I still don’t understand how OSU is higher than Michigan. I get it, Michigan hasn’t played anyone, but they’re undefeated. OSU has played 1 good team in Oregon, but they lost the game. In all the games OSU won, their schedule is similar to Michigan’s. It really makes zero sense

Just need Bama to lose another & we can put them to rest until next season.

im not sure exactly when it happens or how (bama might rightfully deserve it due to other teams losing or might not) but when georgia and alabama play on december 4th, i would bet quite a bit that it will be #1 vs. #2

At this point it doesn’t really matter where they are ranked.

If they beat UGA they will certainly be in the playoff. If they lose to UGA they will likely be on the outside looking in.

They only need to be in the top 4 so I'd say no.
