College Football Playoff Rankings Release Show: How to Watch and Stream

The College Football Playoff Committee is ready to release its fifth Top 25 rankings, identifying the best teams from the first 14 weeks of the season. These rankings are critical to the new 12-team playoff format as they will provide critical insight into the rankings of teams still competing for the national title as we enter the final weeks of the season.

The College Football Playoff terrain underwent a dramatic change after Week 12, as the fourth rankings showed. Both Alabama and Ole Miss found themselves outside the top 12 for the first time this season after losing to unranked opponents, while Notre Dame, SMU and Arizona State made significant progress in the rankings. The top four seeds – Oregon, Texas, Miami and Boise State – remained unchanged entering Week 14. However, there will be a postponement after Miami’s loss to Syracuse.

The fifth College Football Playoff rankings will be released later today, showing where teams stand heading into Week 15. Here’s how to view the rankings:
