9. Penn State Nittany Lions (7-2)

The College Football Playoff committee came into week 10 by showing their complete confidence in the Penn State football team. After beating Ohio State, the Nittany Lions have moved up very far in the polls, all the way to number 12 in the country.

After another big win against Iowa, it wouldn’t be a surprise to see the Nittany Lions rise into the top ten teams in the playoff poll next week.

There isn’t a team on the Lions’ schedule that presents a huge threat to them finishing the season at 10-2. Neither Indiana, Rutgers, or Michigan State seem poised to take down Penn State in the month of November.

Again don’t be shocked to see them inside the top ten when the new poll is released on Tuesday night at 7:00pm.

Next: Number Eight
