The debut edition of the 2018 College Football Playoff rankings come out Tuesday, so the junior edition of the human polls is about to become the extra junior edition.
But the AP doesn’t come out for another hour and so this is the ball of yarn we have to play with at the moment.
The top five teams remain unmoved from a week ago, which makes since given three teams took the week off and the other two won by scores of 59-10 and 42-22. Georgia actually forged a tie with Michigan for the fifth spot after a 36-17 win over then-No. 11 Florida. A 38-35 loss to Oklahoma State sent Texas tumbling from No. 7 to No. 15.
At the bottom of the rankings, the bottom six are all brand new after eight ranked teams lost to unranked opponents.
