The latest College Football Playoff rankings were released Tuesday night, and even though there were no changes in the top five positions, fans still found plenty to debate.
Undefeated Georgia remains atop the list, followed by three more unbeaten teams: Ohio State, TCU, and Michigan.
LSU moves up one spot to sixth, thanks to Oregon’s upset loss to Washington. USC, Alabama, and Clemson all moved up one spot in the rankings. Utah took the No. 10 spot.

College football fans looked at these rankings, with no change at the top, and still decided the CFP committee got things wrong. Tennessee’s No. 5 ranking in particular seemed to be a topic of disagreement, with some fans saying it’s too high, others not high enough.
“The CFP rankings are based on numbers and stats,” tweeted Gage Myers. “Tennessee has 2 wins over top 8 teams — the only other team that has even one in the top 4 is Georgia.”
“I forgot LSU was at home when Tennessee kicked their teeth in,” tweeted one fan.
“How do you put Alabama above Clemson but not put Tennessee above TCU,” tweeted another fan.

Not a chance lol. Not that they aren’t great teams, both are. But the CFP rankings are based on numbers and stats. TN has 2 wins over top 8 teams- the only other team that has even one in the top 4 is Georgia- who beat TN lol.

Clemson with 1 loss should be ahead of Bama with 2 losses.

A TCU lost and LSU wins out will the cfp rankings put 3 SEC teams in playoffs
1 OSU
2 UGA
3 TENN
4 LSU— Nicky Barnes (@lifeis4livingon) November 16, 2022
– Clemson should be ahead of USC comfortably rating as the stronger team and having the better raw resume
– NC State coming off of a loss to lowly Boston College should not be ranked right now, and Cincinnati is no where close to a top 25 resume either.— CFP Resume Rankings (@CFPResumeRanks) November 16, 2022
Finally, one fan summed up the hyped-up reactions of some fans to the latest ranking.
“Some of you should be in prison for how much you care about the third CFP rankings,” he tweeted.
