College Football Playoff Selection Committee Had “A Lot of Conversation” About Alabama, Oregon and Ohio State, But Buckeyes Remain Fourth For Now

Absolutely nothing changed in the top seven of this week’s College Football Playoff rankings.

For Ohio State’s chances of making this year’s CFP, that’s perfectly fine. As the No. 4 team in the rankings, the Buckeyes are exactly where they need to be to make the playoff. As long as they win out, they’ll be no lower than fourth in the final playoff rankings – upcoming games against No. 7 Michigan State and No. 6 Michigan, plus a Big Ten Championship Game that will likely be against either No. 15 Wisconsin or No. 17 Iowa, will ensure the Buckeyes make the CFP if they can win three more games in a row.
