The dust has settled from the spring transfer portal window, and it’s time to examine where everyone stands. The key difference between ranking a top 25 now and doing it a year ago is that the list of College Football Playoff contenders used to cut off around 12. With the CFP expanding to 12 teams this year, if you’re even in contention to make the top 25, you might be a few lucky bounces of the ball away from making the tournament.
That’s what struck me the most as I struggled to parse teams below No. 15. Obviously none of them were perfect, but it’s possible to see a path that ends in the CFP for all of them. That could get very exciting come November.
