COLLEGE FOOTBALL
The second set of rankings from the college football playoff committee will be released here in a little bit. Oregon figures to stay number 1. How far will Miami fall after their first loss of the season to Georgia Tech? How much of a bump will we see for Alabama beating LSU and Ole MIss smothering Georgia? Will we see 4 Big 10 teams in the top 6, top 8? We're still three weeks away from the regular season ending and conference championsip games being set, but the 12 team bracket is beginning to take shape with the week to week results. It looks like if you're not a fan of the Big 10 or the SEC you're going to have to win your league to get a bid.
