Rankings: Baylor Joins Mississippi Schools and FSU in Playoff Spots

Rankings: Baylor Joins Mississippi Schools and FSU in Playoff Spots

Florida State’s huge lead in the Pythagorean Ratings has shrunk to a fraction of a point against Mississippi and Mississippi State. 

But the Seminoles held onto No. 1 in these rankings. Below each team is listed in order from 1st to 128th with their projected score and opponent for this week. Notre Dame dropped to No. 16 in these rankings due to a poor showing against UNC, but they will have a chance this week prove they are a playoff team by beating Florida State. Baylor has the final playoff spot in these ratings, but will have to visit a West Virginia team that almost upset both Alabama and Oklahoma.
