Some of these rankings my surprise you, but keep in mind that there is no bias towards any team or preconceived notions, and the only thing considered is what each team has accomplished so far.

Notes:

• The 2016 National Champion according to the Ooten Ratings: Clemson Tigers
• Alabama was so good throughout the season, that they finish a very slim margin behind Clemson, the team that just defeated them.
