Thanksgiving is almost here, meaning we’re getting closer to the College Football Playoff and bowl season.
The CFP committee released its fourth set of rankings Tuesday, and while the top four unsurprisingly stayed unchanged, there were plenty of shakeups in the other 21 slots. Week 12 saw a few scares, such as Michigan barely surviving Illinois, TCU edging past Baylor in thrilling fashion and USC squeaking past crosstown rival UCLA.
However, there were plenty of upsets. Unranked South Carolina routed Tennessee, Arkansas smacked Ole Miss, and Oklahoma won the Bedlam rivalry over Oklahoma State.
Tennessee and Ole Miss were the biggest movers in this week’s rankings. The Vols dropped five spots, and the Rebels slid six positions.
