Ap Poll Puts Baylor Ahead Of Ohio State Ahead Of College Football Playoff Rankings

Sunday’s announcement of college football’s final four will determine the teams playing for the national championship. AP voters believe Ohio State isn’t worthy.

Alabama, Florida State and Oregon are in, the voters believe. That follows thinking around the nation that those are the best teams.

However, that’s not how the BCS computer rankings sets the field. It has TCU No. 4, according to USA Today.

As we have for weeks, observers are left to wonder about the fourth team. Baylor is widely viewed as worthy, but there is a strong school of thought that the Buckeyes are better.

TCU pummeled Iowa State, but that didn’t impress AP voters.

Championship Week brought changes to the rankings. What will it do for the CFP decision?

Here are the Top 25 teams as determined by the AP. Records are through Dec. 6.
