After rising to No. 13 in last weeks College Football Playoff rankings, Tennessee came out flat and the wheels fell off against Missouri. The mistaked piled up, and the Volunteers ended up losing 36-7. Following the loss, Tennessee slid down to No. 18 in this week’s CFP rankings.

The Bulldogs absolutely throttled Ole Miss last weekend as they continue to get better each week. Georgia sure seems to be peaking at the right time, and the committee agrees, moving Ohio State down to No.
