College Football Playoff Rankings 2015: Week 11 Top 25 Poll Twitter Reaction
Let the debating commence.
The College Football Playoff committee released its second poll Tuesday night after a Week 10 of big-time matchups and stunning upsets.
Here is a look at the new rankings heading into Week 11:
After defeating No. 16 Florida State on Saturday, No. 1 Clemson retained its top spot and looks to have a fairly easy path to the playoff.
College GameDay tweeted this upon the release of the rankings:
The Tigers deserve to keep their spot, as ESPN Stats & Info pointed out:
To get to No. 2, Alabama had to beat last week's No. 2, LSU. The Crimson Tide made the jump from No. 4.
BuckeyesNews on Twitter wasn't too pleased that one-loss Alabama leaped undefeated Ohio State:
Yet TomahawkNation.com's Bud Elliott thinks the Crimson Tide are in the right spot:
The Buckeyes' ugly win over Minnesota didn't hurt them, as they stayed at No. 3 approaching the toughest part of their schedule.
But with games against Michigan State and Michigan looming, ESPN Stats & Info reported that Ohio State has dropped from favorite to win it all to co-favorite:
LSU fell to No. 9 with its loss, and Notre Dame stepped into the Top Four.
USA Today Sports' Dan Wolken thinks things are looking pretty good for the Irish, who were No. 5 last week:
USA Today Sports' Nicole Auerbach, however, isn't too keen on the Irish:
Iowa took the first spot outside the playoff, while Baylor remained at No. 6 this week. Though unbeaten, both teams are looking up at the one-loss Tide and Irish.
An account dedicated to Baylor reminded everyone that the Bears are undefeated:
But Bears head coach Art Briles told ESPN (h/t Tim Griffin of the San Antonio Express-News) that he isn't panicking:
Scout.com's Brian Snow wanted to let everyone know that Alabama and Iowa aren't all that different:
Oklahoma State, which was 14th last week, moved up to eighth after a convincing win over then-No. 8 TCU, which dropped to 15th.
Some, such as ESPN's Jake Trotter, thought the Cowboys' jump was a bit much:
The committee was spot-on, according to the Post and Courier's Gene Sapakoff:
The regular season is far from over, though. And with some of the top teams preparing to take on their stiffest competition of the year, it's likely there will be plenty more movement in the poll.
But the only rankings that matter are the ones released Dec. 6.
