The fourth edition of the College Football Playoff Rankings was released Tuesday night with undefeated Ohio State maintaining its grip on the No. 1 spot ahead of Indiana for the third straight week. While the top of the playoff field held firm, there is no telling what upsets may be in store for the top teams in the nation with Rivalry Week and conference championships ahead over the next 11 days.
Past the Buckeyes and Hoosiers, Texas A&M and Georgia remained in the top four, which would guarantee those programs first-round byes.
