The first playoff ranking will come out on Tuesday night. Here are my predictions:
- Alabama (8-0)
- Clemson (8-0)
- Notre Dame (8-0)
- LSU (7-1)
- Michigan (7-1)
- Georgia (7-1)
- Oklahoma (7-1)
- UCF (7-0)
- Ohio State (7-1)
- West Virginia (7-1)
- Washington State (7-1)
- Kentucky (7-1)
- Florida (6-2)
- Penn State (6-2)
- Houston (7-1)
- Texas (6-2)
- Utah (6-2)
- Utah State (7-1)
- Fresno State (7-1)
- Iowa (6-2)
- Virginia (6-2)
- NC State (6-2)
- Boston College (6-2)
- Mississippi State (5-3)
- Georgia Southern (7-1)
I had some issues with WordPress for a minute and this huge post I had written did not save. Ughhhhh. I will try to write everything from memory.
Alabama is clearly number one, followed by Clemson. I thought after the Syracuse game that Clemson might lose, but they rebounded by decimating their next opponents (Wake Forest, NC State, FSU).
I hope the committee looks long and hard at some of the smaller conferences. It would be cool if Georgia Southern ended up on the rankings. I am pulling for the Sun Belt this year.
So what do you think of my rankings?
