When are CFP rankings for Week 15 out? Date, time, more

With the conclusion of Week 14, college football fans are eagerly anticipating the fifth of six College Football Playoff rankings. The season is now entering its final two weeks, and the excitement is palpable.

Over the past four weeks, the 13-member College Football Playoff selection committee has consistently ranked the Oregon Ducks as the No. 1 seed. The top four teams have maintained their positions, with the Texas Longhorns at the No. 2 seed, the Miami Hurricanes at the No. 3 seed and the Boise State Broncos at the No. 4 seed.

In the fourth rankings, we saw some changes in the remaining seeding, with new teams earning bids. SMU claimed the No. 10 seed, and Arizona State secured the No. 12 seed. Notably, Alabama and Ole Miss fell out of the rankings for the first time this season after suffering losses to unranked opponents.
