The latter half of the projected College Football Playoff bracket experienced a major shakeup after the chaos of Week 13. Three teams featured in the previous bracket cycled out of the field after getting upset to bring in a new round of contenders.

On Tuesday, the newest edition of the College Football Playoff rankings were released, and there was very little change at the top. Oregon, Ohio State, Texas and Penn State remained the top four programs but as laid out in the committee's rules, the playoff bracket does not translate directly to just the top 12 teams being included in the field.
