CFP Rankings: College football's top losers

#1: Ohio State Buckeyes

After losing "The Game" 30-24 to the Michigan Wolverines on Saturday, the Ohio State Buckeyes have fallen out of the College Football Playoff. They are the sixth-ranked team in the CFP rankings, and that is a major issue for the program since they are not competing in the Big Ten championship game either.

At this point, their national championship aspirations are likely over as they would need multiple teams to lose their conference championship games or Washington to win the Pac-12 championship game and the Florida State Seminoles to lose the ACC championship game to have a chance to continue their season.

#2: Louisville Cardinals

The Louisville Cardinals (10-2) are 14th in the rankings after the regular season has wrapped up. Their 38-31 home loss against the unranked Kentucky Wildcats pushed them out of the potential to be in the College Football Playoff as they have way too many teams to climb over.

They still have a chance to play spoiler to the fourth-ranked Florida State Seminoles by winning the ACC championship game against them this week. However, this loss really took them out of the grasp of the top four teams in the nation.
