LSU held the No. 1 spot followed by fellow unbeatens Ohio State and Clemson.
Erick SmithThere was no drama for the top four positions in the third College Football Playoff rankings. Georgia - after its road victory against Auburn - kept its place at No. 4.
The real questions began at No. 5. Would Alabama hold its position within striking distance of the field despite the loss of quarterback Tua Tagovailoa for the season? Would Oregon pass the Crimson Tide and move into position to be selected if it can win the Pac-12 title? How would the committee value the comeback win by Oklahoma at unbeaten Baylor? The Sooners were 10th last week and needed a boost from that win to work themselves into contention.
