November is here and so is the first college football playoff rankings. As expected, Alabama, Clemson and Michigan round out the top three. However, what wasn’t expected was Texas A&M being ranked fourth over the unbeaten Washinton Huskies.
The CFP chairman, Travis Brown, explained the decision the best way he knows how.
CFP Chairman Kirby Hocutt on ESPN: “The committee believes that Texas A&M, at this time, has played a stronger schedule than Washington.”

Nonetheless, undefeated is still undefeated, especially when doing it in a major conference. Amidst the controversy, Twitter reacted.

Idk why people are surprised A&M is ranked higher than Washington. I played a tougher schedule in high school than Washington has this year
