The initial rankings for the College Football Playoff have finally been released, and UCLA finds itself in an interesting position due to the committee's ranking. The Bruins come in at No. 8 overall, three spots lower than the No. 5 ranking they received from the Top 25 AP poll.
Fair Ranking?
This ranking should frustrate UCLA fans for many reasons. For starters, there are several teams above UCLA with multiple losses, while the Bruins are still sitting with an undefeated record. The argument is clearly that UCLA doesn't have a comparable resume, as their biggest win is over a very underwhelming Oregon team.
