College Football Playoff: Georgia up to No. 10 in third set of rankings
Georgia’s win over Tenness helped it jump two spots in the College Football Playoff rankings. The Bulldogs are up to No. 10 after the 31-17 win over the Vols. The Bulldogs are seeded 11th in the College Football Playoff bracket, which includes 12 teams and they’re projected to play at Penn State in the first round of the College Football Playoff.
Oregon is still in the No. 1 spot followed by Ohio State at No. 2. The Buckeyes are seeded at No. 5, however, because Oregon is the projected Big10 champion. Texas is No. 3 but seeded No. 2 in the bracket as the SEC Champion. Penn State is No. 4 followed by Indiana at No. 5. Notre Fame is up to No. 6 despite its home loss to 3-9 Northern Illinois.
Alabama is No. 7, Miami is No. 8, and Ole Miss comes in at No. 9. Tennessee falls from No. 7 to No. 11 and is now out of the projected field with BYU and Boise State getting automatic bids. BYU is the last team in the bracket right now despite being ranked No. 14. Clemson, the team Georgia beat in week one, is now No. 17.
