Only playoff rankings drama left for Oklahoma is who it will face in semifinal

The drama is over.

Oklahoma, coming off a 35-point win at Oklahoma State and an outright Big 12 championship, seems to be firmly in the College Football Playoff.

And at this point, the only team all but assured of a playoff spot.

The selection committee left the Sooners at No. 3 in its playoff rankings for the second consecutive week, behind No. 1 Clemson and No. 2 Alabama, and ahead of No. 4 Iowa.

That spot might seem precarious for the Big 12, considering TCU was ranked No. 3 last year heading into the last week of the season before getting bumped out in the final rankings.
