If Georgia-Tennessee weren't playing each other today then I'd have fully expected Ohio State to drop to #3 after this close win over Northwestern. Northwestern's 1-7 and Ohio State has looked very shaky all  game.

I'll also add if Hooker has a great game today and especially if they win against Georgia, I think he becomes the Heisman favorite. Stroud has been awful today
Hooker was already the favorite.

Oh was he? I saw some outlets have Stroud the favorite and Hooker 2nd but I'll admit that was a week ago so maybe things changed

Stroud is still being projected as the clear #1 pick in the draft, but Hooker, even before today, was the leader for the Heisman.

Huge slate of games today. Super excited for Tennessee-Georgia especially (#1 vs. #2)

I got Tennessee winning 38-28. And also, I got an upset pick. I got LSU beating Alabama tonight

Yikes I clearly misjudged the Georgia-Tennessee game lol...  :P

Georgia's offense has had quite a few explosive plays but their defense has looked exceptional today. That and Tennessee's offense for some reason just looks really shaky and also a bit scared/confused. Hooker looks very vulnerable which you rarely have seen this season. Complete 180 from what we usually see from the Vols.

With my luck now, Alabama will probably also cream LSU tonight

Hoping LSU wins and Georgia wins out so maybe only 1 SEC team makes the playoffs.

And a blowout makes it a lot easier to justify Oregon over Tennessee if they both have the loss especially as that would mean Oregon is a conference champ

It helps Oregon if this score basically remains the same. Both Tennessee and Oregon will have had a blowout loss to Georgia so Oregon may not be penalized as much.

On another note, this is very impressive from Georgia holding Tennessee to just 6 points with about 5 minutes left in the whole game.

Alabama and Clemson each down 7-0, and both teams looking real shaky to start

Now Clemson down 14-0. Alabama trailing at halftime.

Told you guys.

Clemson’s been overrated this whole time. Got blown out by Notre Dame tonight. Felt like Clemson was due for a loss though, they’ve had quite a few close wins and honestly, their QB just isn’t it either

Why did Alabama go for 2?  I still can't figure out.

Me neither but I knew it was going to cost us.  Up 4 there is no reason to go for 2.

DOWN GOES BAMA

Wow what a weekend!! Clemson also got crushed

There’ll be a ton of movement in the CFP rankings

If I had to guess I think the order 1-7 will be Georgia, Ohio State, Michigan, TCU, Tennessee, Oregon, LSU.

Either way it seems Michigan, LSU, TCU and Oregon are big winners this weekend with all the results. I think Clemson and Alabama are basically eliminated from the Top-4 hopes now

I don't think TCU jumps from 8 ahead of Tennessee.  Committee had them behind Bama last week.

Georgia, Ohio State, Michigan is about as obvious a top 3 as you will find

It does then get interesting.

Tennessee is probably 4, then TCU and Oregon, but I wouldn't be all that surprised to really see Oregon jump up.  I think LSU is 7th with USC 8th.
