Paul Finebaum joins SportsCenter on ESPN every Sunday to break down the weekend of college football action.
As part of those segments, he ranks his top 4 teams in the country. This week, there was a noticeable change, as highly rated Ohio State went down at Michigan.
Here’s how the SEC Network host ranks the top 4 teams as things stand at the end of the regular season:
4. Cincinnati Bearcats: “We start with Cincinnati at No. 4. The Bearcats, again, did what they had to do and that has really become their mantra as they have plowed their way through another undefeated season.”
3. Alabama Crimson Tide: “At No. 3, it’s Alabama. It was the shakiest afternoon since Texas A&M. Alabama looked done. A lot of people had written their epitaph, but here comes Bryce Young at the end of the game in one of the most classic finishes in Iron Bowl history. Nick Saban exorcizing some of the demons from the Kick Six.”
2. Michigan Wolverines: “At No. 2, Michigan. It was Jim Harbaugh’s signature game, signature win at Michigan. It was outstanding. A man who a year ago was on the hot seat comes through big and is on the verge of a Big Ten Championship and College Football Playoff appearance.
1. Georgia Bulldogs: “At No. 1? Who else but Georgia? Just another ho-hum blowout of its in-state rival, Georgia Tech. Georgia gets ready for Alabama.”
All 4 of those teams will play for conference titles this coming weekend. But, a maximum of 3 of them can actually win. We’ll find out what happens as championship weekend quickly approaches!
