Hey everyone this is Sam and we need to discuss the college football top four playoff positions. Can anyone break them up? I sure hope so since you know my team is the Florida Gators. We’re sitting at #6, but I think someone has to lose quickly. Can’t see it happening though.
The CFB Playoff Picture Locked?
The Big Four (Alabama, Notre Dame, Ohio State and Clemson) didn’t come close to losing again this week. Even though there were last minute cancellations, postponements and drama, it didn’t effect them one bit. The issue for all the other college football teams looking in is the fact that none of the Big Four have a ranked team left on their schedule.
College Football Upsets
Even though #1 Alabama had a 29-point blowout and #3 Clemson had a 35-point win. We still had some upsets near the top. #9 Oregon fell to Oregon State and #11 Northwestern got beat by Michigan State.

Sarah Fuller
Sarah Fuller became the first woman to play in a Power Five football game when she kicked off to begin the second half against Missouri on Saturday. She is Vanderbilt’s starting goalie on the women’s soccer team. “It’s just so exciting that I can represent the little girls out there,” she said after the game.
Jaret Patterson
Buffalo’s star RB is continuing his epic season with an FBS record-tying eight rushing touchdowns (and 409 yards!) in a 70-41 win over Kent State. Through four games, Patterson has now amassed 920 yards and 16 TD for the 4-0 Bulls.
So do you think the Playoff picture is locked up or will one of them lose? What did you think of Jaret Patterson and Sarah Fuller’s weekends? Let us know in comments below.
