How Ohio State is ranked that high after losing to an unranked team, and barely derping by other unranked teams from week to week is beyond me.
Because, on paper at least, they have a good resume- they lost to a top 20 team in a flukish way, oh and they road wins over a Top 10 team and a Top 15 team. Frankly, they probably should be higher than Louisville but we all love Lamar Jackson and want to see him in the playoffs.

I'm impressed with Auburn. Quite a turn around after some really bad seasons

I don't get Ohio St. and Louisville ahead of A&M
They've struggled against mediocre teams and A&M only lost to Bama.

I don't get how Ohio state is ranked ahead of a&m. aTm has better wins and a better loss.

Same reason teams like LSU are ranked where they are. Potential.
Football, especially at the college level, suffers from sample size error. Just because a team looses focus one or two weeks doesnt mean that any given Saturday they cant beat the top 5. Take anyone from the bottom 5 of the top 25. They arent very likely to beat any of the top 5 in the top 25 in less than 5 tries.

If the playoff happened right now, I think Michigan beats Clemson and Alabama beats Washington. Bama takes it to Michigan to win natty. As for everyone else in the SEC, A&M might drop one or two more. Auburn's all the way up right now. No clue what their future holds anymore. I give up trying to predict that. LSU might suffer a big hit to their confidence after their loss to Alabama. Tennessee'll make it back to the Top 25 if they win out the remainder of their stretch for sure.

LSU will fall through the trap door after Bama game with 3 losses.
Washington is way way over rated...just look at won/loss record of its opponents;
Rutgers
Idaho
Portland State
Arizona 2-5 before this past weekend
Stanford 4-3 " " "
Oregon 2-5 " " "
Oregon State " " "
Everyone of their opponents are in the bottom third of national total defense stats...4th best team in the country? No way. Pac 12 is pathetic...Stanfords remaining opponents for example are about an average 92nd in the country in total defense.
Bama or most SEC teams would smash the Huskies.

Man, its kind of weird that Alabama will likely be the only team we play that's ranked at the end of the year.
