After a chaotic Week 10, the College Football Playoff committee is back with another rankings release. Tune in to see where all the top teams land.
Last weekend was major, with seven ranked vs. ranked games on the schedule. Saturday was highlighted by several marquee upsets and surprising outcomes, which left fans wondering how the CFP rankings would look going into Week 11.
Last week’s unanimous No. 1 Miami suffered a 31-24 loss to Notre Dame, which will bring a new team into the overall top spot. Utah won the ‘Holy War’ over BYU, while Georgia and Alabama both added strong SEC wins over Ole Miss and LSU, respectively.
