Mississippi State No.1 in first College Football Play-Off Poll

Unbeaten Mississippi State is No.1 in the inaugural College Football Play-Off Poll in a SEC West-owned Top 4. Despite struggling against Kentucky on Saturday, the Committee obviously felt that the away victory at LSU – who upset Ole Miss on Saturday – and the win over Auburn stood high.

Florida State – also unbeaten – is No.2, with its biggest victory over previously-unbeaten Notre Dame.

Auburn – who has only lost to Mississippi State on the road – is No. 3.

Ole Miss – who fell to LSU on Saturday in an unimpressive offensive performance – is No.4.

Oregon and Alabama round out the Top 6.
