The College Football Playoffs

The College Football Playoffs

The final College Football Playoff Rankings of the 2017 season were released on December 10. Only two of the four teams in the top four of last week’s rankings are in the College Football Playoff Clemson who beat Miami in the ACC Championship game is number 1 and Oklahoma who beat TCU in the BIG 12 Championship game is number 2. The other two teams that got in are Georgia who beat Auburn in the SEC Championship and Alabama who lost their final game of the season. The final spot in the College Football Playoff came down to two teams Ohio State and Alabama, Ohio State won their Conference but had two loses and Alabama did not win their Conference but had only 1 loss. So the decision ultimately came down to who was the  better team and the committee decided that Alabama was the best team. The two games are on New Year’s day with Georgia and Oklahoma playing in the Rose Bowl game and later ending with a rematch of the passed two National Championship games Alabama and Clemson playing in the Sugar Bowl. The winners of these two games will compete in the National Championship game Monday January 8th.
