As we predicted, Alabama tops the playoff committee rankings, followed by Clemson, Ohio State and Notre Dame.
Texas A&M at No. 5 was also expected, but Oklahoma at No. 6 was a complete surprise due its two losses early in the season.
The AP and Coaches polls have the same top 5, but Cincinnati is No. 6 in each while Oklahoma ranks 7th in the Coaches poll and 8th in the AP, behind Indiana.
The Congrove Computer Rankings have almost he same top 5, flipping Ohio State and Clemson. Indiana is 6th and Cincinnati 7th in those rankings.
