There's less than a month left in the 2021 college football regular season, and the legitimate College Football Playoff contenders will begin to emerge over the next four weeks.
Can Georgia and/or Oklahoma go unbeaten? Who will win the Big Ten East? Can Cincinnati become the first Group of 5 team to claim one of the four CFP spots?
Those questions will be answered between now and Dec. 5, when the final CFP rankings are announced.
For now, college football's pulse will ebb and flow with the weekly CFP rankings.
