The College Football Playoff selection committee released the fifth edition of their top-25 rankings on Tuesday. Arguably the biggest surprise of these rankings was the fact that Alabama and Notre Dame swapped places despite both teams winning their games this week.
In last week’s CFP rankings, Alabama dropped to No. 10 after losing to Oklahoma while Notre Dame moved to No. 9. This past weekend, both teams won their games as Notre Dame dominated Stanford while Alabama outlasted Auburn. Despite this result, Alabama has now moved up to No. 9 while Notre Dame fell back a spot to No. 10.
