Fresh off their victory in Tuscaloosa on Saturday, the LSU Tigers find themselves atop this week's edition of the College Football Playoff rankings, while No. 4 Georgia edged out No. 5 Alabama to break into the top four.
Alabama is outside of the top four for only the fifth time in the CFP era (since 2014).

No. 6 Oregon and No. 7 Utah both moved up one spot from last week's initial rankings, and Minnesota's victory over Penn State vaulted the Golden Gophers nine spots to No. 8. It's the largest jump into the top 10 in the CFP era and the second-biggest week-to-week jump in CFP rankings history.
The loss knocked the Nittany Lions down to No. 9, followed by Oklahoma at No. 10.
No. 11 Florida and No. 12 Auburn are still linked at the hip, while Baylor, the only other unbeaten team in the CFP rankings, comes in at No. 13 after struggling to beat TCU in three overtimes. Baylor is the lowest-ranked Power 5 team at 9-0 or better in the CFP era.
