At long last, the time has come.

The first College Football Playoff rankings are upon us, and the process to decide a postseason is officially underway.

Will this finally be the year that intrigue surrounds the four selections? Before we arrive there, a more pressing matter remains.

Which team is the best in college football? And will this team be the selection committee's No. 1 overall seed this week?

To help answer these questions, we asked B/R readers to give us their thoughts on CFB's cream of the crop. Amid the trash talk and (mostly polite) disagreements, a few teams stood out above all others.

Let's dive in.

 

Unbiased Bulldog Truths

Response: As a Buckeyes fan… people, stop staying OSU should be 1. Georgia is clearly the No. 1 spot. I would do Georgia, Tennessee, OSU, Michigan.

First, thank you, @dannyfe. Unbiased opinions and college football don't normally mesh nicely. It's refreshing to hear they aren't extinct yet.

Yes, last year's national champion is in the mix for No. 1. Georgia is No. 1 in the AP poll heading into Week 10. We'll see if the selection committee comes to the same conclusion.

On the plus side, Georgia is still Georgia. Despite an exodus of talent, the Bulldogs have future NFL players all over the field. (And the fact that defensive lineman Jalen Carter returned against Florida on Saturday is a very big deal.)

Also, Georgia's 49-3 win over Oregon is the best win in college football as of today. That could change this week when the Bulldogs take on Tennessee, but that victory is a massive resume boost that has only gotten stronger as Oregon has rallied.

With all that said, the resume isn't perfect. The second-best win on Georgia's schedule is…probably South Carolina? Florida? A close call against Missouri?

Georgia could well be the committee's No. 1 overall choice. It's just not my choice as of now.
