UCLA jumps to No. 4 in this week's College Football Playoff ranking

The second College Football Playoff rankings were released Tuesday night, with the 9-0 UCLA Bruins moving up four spots to No. 4. It’s a big jump for the Bruins who are one of the big risers in this week’s ranking.

UCLA passed over Miami (FL), Indiana, Texas and Kentucky this week. It’s extra surprising considering that Texas won and Indiana was on a bye but still saw the Bruins leap over them in the rankings.

The Bruins did get a nice win over Minnesota, flying across the country for an early kickoff but still getting a 34-20 win where the UCLA offense had one of their better showings. Did the big game in Week 10 for Ty Dieffenbach increase some belief in UCLA? Something led to the big rise for the Bruins.

Perhaps UCLA was ranked too low in the initial CFP ranking but the committee got that corrected right away. Notre Dame moved up six spots to No. 5 after their big win, Tennessee jumped five spots to No. 8 with Oregon being the biggest climber, moving up seven spots to No. 16 in the ranking.

UCLA is the highest-ranked Big Ten Conference team, with Indiana dropping to No. 9 ahead of No. 15 Iowa, No. 16 Oregon, No. 18 and No. 20 Ohio State. This week’s rankings would have only two playoff teams, with UCLA being set for a first round bye.

In this week's rankings, UCLA would be facing off the winner of Notre Dame-Boise State. In the 24-team playoff that comes into place next season, the Bruins would face the winner of No. 13 Wake Forest and No. 20 Ohio State.
