After an exciting opening weekend of college football, we have an idea of who are the elite contenders for the 2022 season.

Though the first round of College Football Playoff rankings are not released until Tuesday, November 1, I tried to think like a member of the committee and projected what the CFP rankings would look like if it were released today.

The CFP rankings are all about resumes – at least that’s what they tell us. And in Week 1, we saw some pretty good resume builders, with Georgia dominating Oregon, the Buckeyes beating Notre Dame and Florida’s close win over Utah.

So when you see my top-three, try to stay calm. These are not power rankings, but rather how I believe the committee would rank the top teams based on what they accomplished in Week 1.

(Note: There are still two more high-profile games to be played this weekend: LSU vs. FSU on Sunday and Clemson vs. Georgia Tech on Monday).
