CFP Rankings Week #2 Scores

The final scores of the games after the week #2 rankings. Top ten team loses are in italics.

LSU - 58 at Mississippi - 37
Ohio State - 56 at Rutgers - 21
Wake Forest - 3 at Clemson - 52
Georgia - 21 at Auburn - 14 (12)
Alabama - 38 at Mississippi State - 7
Arizona - 6 at Oregon - 34
UCLA - 3 at Utah - 49
Minnesota -19 at Iowa - 23
Indiana - 27 at Penn State - 34
Oklahoma - 34 at Baylor - 31 (13)

The only top 10 team to lose was Minnesota so the Gophers lost their top ten position, their undefeated season and the hog in one afternoon. Oklahoma looked like they were in trouble for a while but ultimately pulled the game out.

Alabama lost Tua Tagovailoa for the rest of the season with a dislocated hip and possible posterior wall fracture. I say possible because the reports are inconsistent. Doctors say he'll fully recover but as a guy who had multiple shoulder dislocations let's just say I find that "fully" a tad questionable. I hope I'm wrong.

LSU at Ole Miss was a crazy affair including 94 points, over 1300 yards in total offense and over 200 yards rushing by the Mississippi QB John Rhys Plumlee. LSU won but it puts a bit of a question mark on its run defense. Joe Burrow also had a short span of being human when he threw two picks in the 4th quarter. I say "short" because he also threw for 489 yards and 5 TDs.

So what happens to the top six?

I've given up trying to understand how the committee thinks but what might happen is Ohio State going back to #1. 

Let's go with that and say it will look like this.

#1 - Ohio State
#2 - LSU
#3 - Clemson
#4 - Georgia
#5 - Alabama
#6 - Oregon
