College Football Playoff Top 25: Updated CFP rankings revealed
The College Football Playoff Selection Committee revealed its second look at the 2022 poll after Week 10 completely shifted the landscape to set up another big slate in Week 11. The committee updated the data and debated the many matchups to rank the top contenders for the four-team playoff and those with a chance at the New Year’s Six bowls during ESPN’s Tuesday night reveal show.
The CFP Selection Committee provides a new Top 25 based on the latest results and ongoing power struggles between key storyline builders. As the season winds down, the committee looks at each data point for evenly matched teams and weighs the value of certain wins and losses.

After winning the national championship last season, Kirby Smart has Georgia back on top of the sport with a season-defining win over Tennessee in Athens, Georgia last week. On the outside looking in at a spot in the SEC Championships game, Tennessee’s high-powered offense hit a snag and rests in the mercy of outside results and the impression of the committee. Ohio State and Michigan survived the weekend to keep their rivalry game on the forefront while Clemson and Alabama slipped up and hurt their chances.
Georgia, Ohio State, Michigan and TCU make up the updated top-four, with Tennessee and Oregon on the outside looking in. The four undefeated teams entering Week 11 are Georgia, Michigan, Ohio State and TCU.
