The playoff committee released the rankings yesterday. Here are the relevant ones:


1. Alabama 12-0
2. Ohio State 11-1
3. Clemson 11-1
4. Washington 11-1
5. Michigan 10-2
6. Wisconsin 10-2
7. Penn State 10-2
8. Colorado 10-2
9. Oklahoma 9-2
10. Oklahoma State 9-2

WHO’S IN?
Alabama is in, even with a loss against Florida (unlikely). Ohio State is in, they are done playing and there is no conceivable way they can get knocked down three spots to the five spot.

WHO’S OUT?
The Big-12 is out. Regardless of what happens Friday and Saturday, Oklahoma can’t jump five spots and there Oklahoma State can’t jump six spots.

WHO’S SPOT IS IT TO LOSE?
Clemson and Washington control their own destiny. If they both win they are both in.

HOW DOES MICHIGAN GET IN?
A Washington lose and a Clemson win puts Michigan in. They will have beaten the others beating on the door: Wisconsin; Penn State; and Colorado State.

A Clemson lose and Washington win puts Michigan in. They will have beaten the others beating on the door: Wisconsin and Penn State.

HOW DOES PENN STATE GET IN?
A Clemson lose and a Washington lose opens the flood gates for three Big Ten teams to be in the Playoffs. Penn State’s win would have to be more convincing than Colorado’s.

HOW DOES WISCONSIN GET IN?
A Clemson lose and a Washington lose opens the flood gates for three Big Ten teams to be in the Playoffs. Wisconsin’s win would have to be more convincing than Colorado’s.

HOW DOES COLORADO GET IN?
A Clemson lose and a Washington lose, and a lackluster win by either Penn State or Wisconsin, coupled with a dominant win over Washington.

OUR PREDICTION?
Third ranked Clemson defeats 23rd ranked Virginia Tech. Colorado upsets Washington. Penn State and Wisconsin play a sloppy game, thereby opening the door for Colorado, who dominates Washington.

So here is our prediction:
  • 1st seed: Alabama Crimson Tide
  • 2nd seed: The Ohio State Buckeyes
  • 3rd seed: Clemson Tigers
  • 4th seed: Colorado Buffaloes
