The first edition of this year’s College Football Playoff rankings will be released on Tuesday, when the CFP committee will rank its top 25 teams in the country each week until Dec. 7, at which point 12 teams will officially be selected into the playoffs.
One change to the 12-team CFP this year that could take place is an increase of SEC teams in the tournament. Last year, a point of contention in the selection was that only three SEC squads were chosen to compete in the CFP. This year, however, there are nine SEC teams currently ranked in the AP Top 25 poll, which seemingly would pave the way for more teams from the conference to make it into the postseason.
