Kirk Herbstreit called Ohio State’s 33-24 win over Penn State Saturday night, and he was certainly impressed.
The College Football Playoff rankings will be revealed for the first time this season on Tuesday night; however, Herbstreit revealed his new top 6 rankings after the Buckeyes win over the Nittany Lions.
And they were somewhat surprising.
Herbstreit ranked 1. Georgia, 2. Alabama, 3. Ohio State and 4. Cincinnati. Alabama and Ohio State both have suffered losses this season, while Herbstreit’s No. 5 and No. 6 teams — Michigan State and Oklahoma — are both undefeated. According to Herbstreit, they could be left out of the top 4 Tuesday night.

It will be interesting to see how the College Football Playoff selection committee ranks the top 4 teams Tuesday night. There will be a lot of unknowns about Tuesday night’s rankings; however, one thing that will be known — Georgia will be No. 1.
Nos. 2 – 6, however, will be very interesting to watch unfold.
