We know one thing: Ohio State has earned the right to be called the best team in the country (on paper). Beyond that, Week 13 of the college football season only blurred the picture. The No. 2 (Alabama) and No. 4 (Ole Miss) teams in last week's SP+ rankings both lost, No. 3 Texas looked lost offensively, and No. 7 Penn State thought hard about losing too.
Ohio State expanded its lead in this week's SP+ ratings to a comfortable degree, but we've now got a three-loss team at No. 2, and the second- and ninth-best teams are separated by only 3.
