While TCU got its market correction from the first rankings, the ACC finds itself in the weakest playoff position. ByPatForde’s reaction from the latest CFP rankings
With half of the College Football Playoff selection committee’s top six teams losing over the weekend, a Tuesday shakeup was inevitable.. This wasn’t a free-fall, but we saw a series of significant drops for Tennessee, Alabama and Clemson that could have long-term effects.The GoodThe Volunteers have some very good wins over No. 9 Alabama and No. 7 LSU on the road, and the selection committee is giving them some tangible credit for thumping No. 24 Kentucky as well.
Other than the Tigers, the only ranked ACC teams this week are North Carolina , North Carolina State and new arrival Florida State . Clemson already has played the Wolfpack and Seminoles and could meet the Tar Heels in the ACC title game, but there aren’t a lot of remaining opportunities for it to improve its position.
The Crimson Tide have a good resume-enhancing opportunity Saturday at Mississippi that could be enough to vault them past No. 8 USC, which plays Colorado. But USC has two superior opponents to close the regular season compared to Bama finishing against Austin Peay and the worst Auburn team in years. Unless LSU collapses and opens a backdoor opportunity for Alabama to win the SEC West and upset Georgia in the league championship game, it stands to reason that the Tide are out.
