The winner of Oregon-Washington should vault into the top three IMO.
I'd go:
1. Texas
2. Florida State
3. Michigan
4. Oregon
5. Washington
I think that now that we're 4 or 5 weeks in, we can base things on what we've seen this year and throw out things like last year's performance and recruiting ranks of rosters.

Forget the specific teams/seeding, but how can anyone not think this is the best postseason format? Especially this year, I view pretty every single matchup, including the ones with the top 4 seeds as a complete toss up (except for the Oregon vs Fresno State game)
Playoff will basically change 4 bowl games from being fun exhibitions/rewards into meaningful must-watch games.
I think it also improves the parity of the sport, which had gotten to the point where recruits felt like there were only about a half dozen programs to consider if they wanted a shot at the national championship.
Great change for college football.
Defense is elite. Offense needs to develop if they want to beat Michigan, but I think they'll handle Ohio State this year.
Buffs didn't get any votes in either poll. Fair. Only two 2-loss teams are ranked at this point and we don't have a win over anyone receiving votes.

Fair indeed. However, our only two losses are to top 10 teams. That should be worth one voteBuffs didn't get any votes in either poll. Fair. Only two 2-loss teams are ranked at this point and we don't have a win over anyone receiving votes.

I have a feeling these next few games are going to be a chance to make a statement. We’ll earn s ranking after that maybe
If we can win convincingly next Friday night and get to 5-2, I think we’ll get back in.

Yeah, I could see us getting ranked with a big win over Stanford. The hype will be real big for the UCLA game, especially since that's when we're supposed to get Hunter back.
If we look like last night, or we lose, we will have to pull off a major upset before we get consideration again. But I don't know if we have a "major upset" type opponent remaining on the schedule.

Thanks, gentlemen.
I believe USC is potentially going to get exposed with at least 3 losses coming up. OU/Texas definitely surprised me. A lot.
UGa, Mich, OSU, and PSU still completely untested.
I expect the 2nd half of this season to be a wild ride to say the least. What a way to finish off the 4 team playoff era.
The first playoff rankings are out.
I’m surprised they bumped OSU to #1, but it isn’t that controversial.
If the rest of the season goes chalk, the playoff will be:
That would be fun to watch.
