TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — There was little change at the top as the latest College Football Playoffs rankings were released Tuesday night with Alabama keeping its spot as the No. 1 team in the nation.

The rest of the top four saw only a minor change as Miami jumped Clemson for the No. 2 spot with No. 4 Oklahoma filling out the final playoff spot. No. 5 Wisconsin and No. 6 Auburn are the first two teams on the outside looking in, but both seemingly control their own destiny moving forward. No. 7 Georgia is followed by No. 8 Notre Dame, No. 9 Ohio State and No. 10 Penn State.

Alabama (11-0, 7-0 in the SEC) will travel to Auburn (9-2, 6-1) on Saturday at 2:30 p.m. CT on CBS with the SEC West title on the line. The winner of Saturday’s game will move on the SEC Championship Game on Dec. 2 where it will meet Georgia in what would most likely be a play-in game for the playoffs.

Clemson and Miami will play in the ACC Championship Game on Dec. 2, while Wisconsin will play Ohio State for the Big Ten title on the same day.

The SEC has six teams represented in the rankings, including No. 1 Alabama No. 6 Auburn, No. 7 Georgia, No. 14 Mississippi State, No. 18 LSU and No. 24 South Carolina.
