1. Alabama
2. Clemson
3. Stanford - The Cardinal proved they belonged in the Playoff four by putting away Iowa in seemingly two seconds even if it was technically fair they weren't included. I really wish we could have seen what this team could have done against Alabama or Clemson, but we will never know.
4. Ohio State
5. Oklahoma
6. Michigan State
7. TCU
8. Michigan
9. Iowa
10. Mississippi
11. Baylor
12. Notre Dame
13. Wisconsin
14. Houston
15. LSU
16. Oklahoma State
17. Georgia
18. North Carolina
19. Florida State
20. Navy
21. Utah - All things considered, this was a good season for the Utes, topped off with a bowl win. They end up being the only Pac-12 South team who finished in the Top 25.
22. Northwestern
23. Mississippi State
24. Washington State - Who saw this coming? The Cougars finish in the Top 25 and get probably the conference's second-best bowl win. A great job by Mike Leach in 2015 after most had buried him and this program.
25. Florida
