The history of the playoff format tells us that all answers will be supplied by the first Sunday in December. For now, what we can glean from the first rankings of the 2022 season is that the committee loves the SEC — no big surprise there.
WinnersOK, let’s count ‘em up. Tennessee’s at No. 1, and no surprise there. The Volunteers have amassed a sterling resume and can put a headlock on the top spot with a win Saturday against the Bulldogs, who land at No. 3. Alabama is No. 6, as the highest-ranked one-loss team entering Saturday’s game against No. 10 LSU, the top-ranked team with two losses. Just behind the Tigers is No. 11 Mississippi. So, to sum up: Of the top 11 teams in the rankings, five come from the SEC.
and No. 9 Southern California, since neither seems likely to win the Pac-12 with just one loss and finish in the top four. Still, to have the Trojans ahead of the rival Bruins seems to ignore each team’s resume and strength of schedule. USC has one win against a team with a winning record, No. 23 Oregon State.
has three: South Alabama, Washington and No. 14 Utah. While the Bruins do have just one road win, that victory against Utah is one of the best from any one-loss team.
