Oklahoma is No. 3 in the College Football Playoff selection committee rankings, putting the Sooners safely in position to be in the final four with their season completed.
The Sooners locked up the Big 12 championship with a blowout victory at Oklahoma State on Saturday.
Clemson is still No. 1, and Alabama remained No. 2. Both the Tigers and the Crimson Tide head into their conference championship games Saturday needing only a victory to lock up a playoff spot. The top seed gets to play closest to home, so for Clemson, a semifinal game at the Orange Bowl in Miami is also on the line against North Carolina.
