As Week 13 of the college football season drew to a close, we were treated to a series of high-stakes games, each with the potential to dramatically alter a team’s fate in the College Football Playoff. As we eagerly await the fourth of six rankings, the suspense and excitement of the season continue to build.

According to the latest CFP rankings, Oregon has held its position as the No. 1 seed for the third consecutive week. The top five were as follows: Ohio State is ranked at the No. 2 seed (but would be given the No. 5 seed in the tournament), followed by Texas at the No. 3 seed. Penn State claimed the No. 4 seed, and Indiana was given the projected No. 5 seed.

However, it is important to remember that these rankings are not permanent and are expected to change each week, especially this week after Ohio State dominated Indiana at home, which will surely send the previously undefeated Hoosiers down the rankings. With every matchup from now until the end of the season carrying significant weight, all upcoming games in the final weeks are crucial and must-win situations.

For those eager for the fourth set of College Football Playoff rankings, here’s how to catch this week’s show to see where your team falls.
