These teams are stealing BYU’s at-large bid in the College Football Playoff

On Tuesday, ESPN held the College Football Rankings show, their last of the regular season, before revealing the final shape of the playoff picture. The top of the rankings featured the usual suspects of the 2025 season, with Ohio State, Indiana, and Texas Tech remaining firmly in position to obtain a first-round bye, while Texas A&M fell out of position following a loss to 9-3 Texas. This late-season movement allowed a worthy 11-1 Georgia team to jump up to number three, having beaten ranked Ole Miss, Texas, and Georgia Tech in the last month and change.
