CFP Rankings are broken

Just completed the Conference Championship Week in my first dynasty (ULM). Despite making the Pac-12 a 14 team league, they did not have a Conference Championship Game.


In the ACC, #18 NC State defeated #1 North Carolina 41-27 and was the #5 seed. #15 Liberty beat Jacksonville State 29-24 in the C-USA Championship Game and got the #4 seed. SBC has my #17 and undefeated ULM defeating Old Dominion 48-14. I dropped to #18 while Liberty rises from #15 to #4. #18 NC State only rises to #12 after defeating #1 North Carolina. This is very, very bad. I am heavily disappointed with this game.

Re: CFP Rankings are broken

What was NC St’s record vs Liberty’s? Playoff seeding isn’t overall rank

Sounds like the seeding logic is correct as Liberty would be a top-4 rank champ and gets a bye. The ranking logic to get there doesn’t read well as you said.

NC State was 10-3 (including their win over UNC in the ACCCG) and went 3-3 vs ranked teams. Liberty was 12-1 in C-USA and 0-0 vs ranked teams. I was 13-0 in the Sun Belt and finished below Liberty. As stated, we entered the CCG week as



15 Liberty
16 Penn State
17 ULM (me)
18 NC State


Liberty was overrated at #15 and ULM should have been ranked higher based on playing in a tougher conference (Sun Belt raided C-USA recently) with the same record vs ranked teams.


There is simply no way #18 doesn't jump #15 after they beat #1.

Yeah something seems buggy there especially if NC St jumped all the way to five…its like it didn’t process the ranking calc in the correct order

I’m in conference championship week and 7-5 Michigan is currently #6 in the CFP. I’m 11-1 Utah and am #14

NC State jumped to 12 because they were the ACC champions who entered the ACC Championship game #18, but they beat #1 North Carolina.


Liberty jumped from #15 to #4 by edging unranked Jacksonville State by 4, but the top 4 conference champions get the top 4 spots.


Last year #8 Alabama jumped to #4 after beating #1 Georgia in the SEC Championship Game. Teams that defeat #1 usually jump at least 4 spots and in real life, NC State jumps to at least 12 (which they did only because they were required to make the playoffs).
