College Football Rankings: Predictions for Final College Football Playoff Rankings 2016-17

No. 8 Wisconsin Badgers


Record: 10-3


Current CFB Playoff Ranking: 6th


Key Wins: LSU, Iowa, Nebraska, Minnesota


What the Committee Will Like: Wisconsin survived a difficult schedule and are likely to finish inside the top ten. They have a non-conference win against LSU. The Badgers also won their division and have a number of key conference wins. Wisconsin had a chance to win the Big Ten but gave up a big lead to Penn State.


Areas of Concern: Wisconsin's resume would look a lot better with a Big Ten championship on it. If we are comparing Wisconsin to the playoff teams, their three losses disqualify them from the conversation. It should be noted that two of those losses were the narrowest kind to Michigan and Ohio State. (Getty)
