How the College Football Playoff bracket would look after the selection committee's third rankings

The College Football Playoff selection committee released its third top-25 rankings of the season ahead of the first 12-team playoff, and unsurprisingly, the Oregon Ducks are still the No. 1 team.

Of course, there are still many games and a couple weeks before the season ends with conference championship weekend, and that means the rankings and playoff picture could change between now and then. After the conference title games, the CFP committee will announce the 12 playoff teams on Selection Sunday on December 8.

But for now, here’s a look at where each team would be seeded in the 12-team College Football Playoff bracket if the playoff began today.
