Wisconsin is 9th in College Football Playoff rankings

November 1, 2017 By Bill Scott

The 4th ranked Wisconsin Badgers are 9th in the initial College Football Playoff rankings which came out on Tuesday night.

UW (8-0, 5-0 Big Ten) was the third-highest Big Ten team, behind Ohio State at number six and Penn State at number seven.

Georgia opened the rankings number-1, followed by Alabama, Notre Dame, Clemson and Oklahoma to round out the first five.

It’s not a big surprise that Wisconsin finished lower than their rankings in the Top 25 polls.  They have yet to play a ranked team and none of the teams left on UW’s regular-season schedule is in the committee’s top 25.

Michigan, normally a ranked team, is hurting the Badgers.  They’ll visit Madison on Nov. 18 and as of now, are unranked.

The Badgers travel to Bloomington this Saturday to face the Indiana Hoosiers.
