The College Football Playoff Selection Committee came out with it's third rankings of the season on Tuesday night. Georgia rises to No. 1 after defeating No. 9 Ole Miss over the weekend, placing Ohio State at No. 2, Michigan at No. 3, FSU at No. 4, and Washington on the outside looking in at No. 5.
Brandon argues that Washington's 10-0 season in the PAC-12 is more impressive than FSU's, in the ACC, and deserves that last spot. Let's take a look at the ups and downs on each of the resumes.

45-24 over No. 5 LSU, 31-24 at Clemson, 38-20 over No. 16 Duke.
