"It's three weeks into the season and Notre Dame has dropped out of the playoff conversation with an 0-2 start following its home loss to Texas A&M on Saturday. In what was a wild, entertaining evening of college football. Georgia's overtime win at Tennessee was overshadowed by what unfolded later in South Bend because the Aggies' win had the bigger, more immediate impact on the playoff race."
"So what does it mean for Texas A&M? This list is fluid -- and will continue to be early in the season. Like the selection committee, it is a ranking based on what each team has done to-date -- not last year or what it might do in the coming weeks. Here's the latest prediction of what the selection committee's top 12 would look like if it were released today."
Three weeks into the season Notre Dame sits 0-2 after its home loss to Texas A&M, removing its margin for error and severely jeopardizing playoff prospects. Georgia's overtime win at Tennessee drew attention, but Texas A&M's victory in South Bend produced a bigger, more immediate impact on the playoff race. Marcus Freeman described the future as uncertain and stressed focusing on improvement. Early-season rankings remain fluid and are based on current results rather than last season's performance. Ohio State's win over Texas and strong efficiency metrics support a high ranking despite weaker opponents affecting its résumé.
