Georgia nabs top spot in CFP rankings, while Notre Dame jumps ahead of Miami after beating 'Canes

Georgia moved into the top spot in Tuesday night's College Football Playoff rankings, while Notre Dame vaulted six notches to No. 5 and leapfrogged two spots ahead of Miami on the strength of its win over the Hurricanes last weekend. The second of the CFP's six ranking reveals had its usual share of head-scratchers, as well, starting with Indiana dropping five spots to No. 9 despite not playing last weekend. kAm%92E[ 2=@?8 H:E9 F?56762E65 &r{pVD >@G6 FA 7@FC DA@ED E@ }@] c =@@<65 =:<6 2?@E96C “4@CC64E:@?” 3J 2 D6=64E:@? 4@>>:EE66 E92E[ 3J >@DE 244@F?ED[ 925 2 C@F89 @A6?:?8 H66<]k^Am kAm“x 5@?VE E9:?< :E H2D 2? 25>:DD:@? @7 E96> 36:?8 E@@ =@H[” D2:5 wF?E6C *FC2496<[ E96 492:C @7 E96 `b\A6CD@?
