Notre Dame drops out of top four in College Football Playoff rankings

With two weekends left before the final ranking, college football's big playoff loser is Notre Dame.

A poor performance against Boston College at Fenway Park last Saturday cost the Irish two spots in the latest College Football Playoff rankings, announced Tuesday.

This week's playoff winner is Oklahoma, which moved up four spots to No. 3 after a one-point win over injury-depleted Texas Christian.

Clemson and Alabama remained Nos.1 and 2, followed by Oklahoma and Iowa. Michigan State is fifth, then Notre Dame.

Baylor is No.
