CFP Rankings Reaction: Who actually controls their own destiny for the CFP?
FOX Sports’ lead College Football analyst Joel Klatt reacts to the CFP Committee’s latest rankings. He gives his thoughts on the Committee’s decision to keep Indiana at #2 over Texas A&M after the Hoosiers’ dramatic win at Penn State. He also explains why Texas Tech jumping up to #6 puts them in a great position to grab a First Round bye. Klatt looks at the pathway for a 4th Big Ten team as USC comes in at #17 and Michigan at #18 with 3 games left. He then looks at the entire Top 25 and breaks down which teams actually control their own destiny to get to the Playoff – like Ohio State, Georgia and Alabama - and which still need some help or they will be sweating on Selection Sunday.Â

FOX Sports’ lead College Football analyst Joel Klatt reacts to the first set of College Football Playoff Rankings and gives his biggest takeaways. He points out how the Committee is telling us that Texas is in a great position to make the field and may not even need to win the rest of their games to do so. He also breaks down why the Big 12 should feel really good about getting multiple bids while the ACC is not so fortunate. Klatt applauds the committee for their valuation of the second tier of the Big Ten and lays out how the Committee has shown that a 4th spot for the Big Ten is there for the taking. He wraps up the show by making his picks for which team inside the current bracket could find itself on the outside by season’s end and which team currently on the outside is going to be playing football in the College Football Playoff when it’s all set in December.
