First-ever 12 team playoff rankings revealed: what did we learn?

The inaugural 12 team College Football Playoff rankings are finally here. Caroline Fenton, Jason Fitz and Adam Breneman provide instant reactions to the top 25 ranked teams. What does this initial ranking tell us about what the CFP committee values about the eye test, strength of schedule and quality losses?

We know who the top-ranked teams are, but what does it all mean? Could 4 teams from the Big 10 realistically make it into the playoffs? What happens if BYU loses in the Big 12 title game and a  previously unranked spoiler team earns a spot?

Caroline, Fitz & Adam preview the biggest matchups of week like Georgia on the road at Ole Miss, Alabama vs. LSU and a BYU rivalry game at Utah.
