For the second straight year, the College Football Playoff Committee has left Ohio State out in the cold.
The committee announced Oklahoma as the fourth and final team added to the postseason Sunday, with one-loss Ohio State sitting in the No. 6 spot. Alabama, Clemson and Notre Dame remain the top three, in that order.
Here's how the rankings played out:
1. Alabama
2. Clemson
3. Notre Dame
4. Oklahoma
5. Georgia
6. Ohio State
The only intrigue coming into the final rankings was whether the committee would flip-flop on its Oklahoma-Ohio State order from a week ago—or perhaps put in two-loss Georgia.
