The third College Football Playoff Rankings of the season were definitely the most favorable so far for the Oklahoma Sooners, but still not perfect.
The Sooners were No. 8 in the newest CFP rankings on Tuesday after jumping three spots thanks to their 23-21 road upset over then-No. 4 Alabama on Saturday. However, OU was a spot behind an overvalued Oregon team at No. 7.
Committee favoring Oregon over Sooners because of extra loss
The Ducks have the advantage over OU of having one less loss at 9-1, compared to the Sooners at 8-2.
