IOWA FOOTBALL NO. 16 IN FIRST COLLEGE FOOTBALL PLAYOFF RANKINGS

YO HO HO

NCAA Football: Iowa at Penn State Matthew O’Haren-USA TODAY Sports

The Hawkeyes are ranked No. 16 overall in the first college football playoff rankings of the 2018 season.

Alabama is the No. 1 team overall, followed by Clemson at No. 2, LSU at No. 3 and Notre Dame at No. 4. Michigan rounds out the top five.

In the top 10 we have Georgia, Oklahoma, Washington State, Kentucky and Ohio State. Washington State beating out OSU is fun and good!

These rankings are also fun and good, but also mean very little for Iowa. And teams that aren’t in the top-4 more or less. But rankings are fun, and as long as Iowa continues to win (or starts to win again) the Hawkeyes will be in these rankings for the remainder of the year.
