Every Sunday, CBS Sports analyst Danny Kanell takes to Twitter to rank his top 8 teams in the country.
This week, there was a lot of craziness in the world of college football, including Florida’s dramatic, shoe-related loss to LSU.
The Gators are out of Kanell’s top 8. Kanell also seems to be punishing Ohio State for only having played 5 games thus far. In fact, he has a different Ohio school — Cincinnati — in the No. 4 spot:
My top eight teams with one week to go. I don’t buy into brand or perception but respect for what you’ve actually done on the field. #DKtop8 #expandtheplayoff
1. Bama
2. Notre Dame
3. Clemson
4. Cincinnati
5. Texas AM
6. Ohio St
7. Coastal Carolina
8. USC— Danny Kanell (@dannykanell) December 13, 2020
In the current College Football Playoff rankings, Ohio State is at No. 4, with Cincinnati at No. 8. Will that change this Tuesday when the new CFP rankings come out?
We’ll see if Cincinnati jumps or if the top 5 stays the same, with Texas A&M remaining behind the Buckeyes. We know Kanell doesn’t think the Buckeyes should be in the Playoff at this moment in time, though.
