In a recent statement, Southern Methodist University (SMU) football head coach Rhett Lashlee expressed his disappointment with the current College Football Playoff (CFP) rankings, stating they are ‘wrong on so many levels’. Lashlee’s reaction came as several teams, including powerful contenders, were ranked ahead of the Mustangs despite their solid season performance. He emphasized that these rankings do not reflect the efforts and accomplishments of his players. The Mustangs are working hard to secure their place in the upcoming postseason, and Lashlee believes that fair recognition is crucial for all teams involved. Meanwhile, discussions are intensifying around the NCAA’s playoff format changes, which include the planned expansion to a 12-team playoff system starting next year. Fans are eager to know when the final college football playoff rankings will be released. The official announcement is expected to take place during the selection show, which will be broadcast on ESPN. Experts are already projecting bowl matchups, including teams like Oregon, Georgia, Boise State, and Arizona State, indicative of the competitive landscape as we approach the postseason. The excitement around the bowl game projections reflects the growing anticipation among college football fans.
