The latest College Football Playoff rankings were revealed on Tuesday night, setting the stage for a big ending to the 2025 regular season this weekend. There was no change in the top-five as Ohio State, Indiana, Texas A&M, Georgia and Texas Tech all staying in their current positions.
The first major change came with Oregon and Ole Miss swapping spots at No. 6 and 7 in the rankings.
The biggest things to watch going into this weekend’s games, however, is going to be the chaos in the ACC — where the Miami Hurricanes have to hope for an at-large bid, whether they can do enough to move ahead of Notre Dame and which team is going to come out out of the Group of Five conferences.
The Miami-Notre Dame situation
As of Tuesday’s rankings, the Miami Hurricanes have a spot in the playoff field due to being the highest-ranked ACC team. But given that Miami has virtually no chance of playing in the ACC Championship Game or winning the ACC, it has to hope for an at-large bid because one of No. 18 Virginia, No. 21 SMU or No. 22 Pitt is likely to take that ACC spot as the conference champion.
That would likely leave Miami on the outside, even if it wins at Pitt on Saturday.
How can Miami secure that at-large spot?
