After a weekend of chaos, the committee is throwing ideas against the wall and reporting back what stuck.

The latest edition of the College Football Playoff rankings came out on Tuesday night, and there was a shakeup at the back end of the top 12. Tennessee and SMU vaulted into the No. 8 and No. 9 spots, respectively, after being on the outside looking in last weekend. Simply put, win and each of them are in.
However, Indiana tumbled all the way down to No. 10 after suffering its first loss of the season, and Alabama fell six spots and out of the projected 12-team bracket after getting smoked by Oklahoma in Norman.

Oregon, Ohio St., Texas and Penn St. remain the top 4 in the CFP rankings, with Notre Dame replacing Indiana at No. 5. No. 12 Clemson and No. 13 Alabama would be the first teams left out of the playoff.

Which teams, and conference, should be most upset with the latest CFP rankings.

A veteran NFL pass rusher wants to return to action after retiring this past offseason.
Former Tampa Bay Buccaneers linebacker Shaquil Barrett, 32, is seeking reinstatement, announced on Tuesday via NFL insider Adam Schefter.
Barrett hopes to return for his 11th year in the NFL.
In July, Barrett announced his decision to retire from the NFL to “shift my full focus to my wife and kids and helping them realize [their] dreams.”
Barrett, a two-time Super Bowl champ, signed with the Miami Dolphins in March and retired months later.

Notre Dame jumped to No. 5, while Alabama and Ole Miss are on the outside looking in. Boise State, meanwhile, remains in great shape for a first-round bye.

We’ve all been in traffic so bad that we thought to ourselves, “I could probably get there faster if I ditched the car and hoofed it,” and for the Utah Hockey Club, that turned out to actually be the case in Downtown Toronto.
Utah was on the road Monday night in Toronto to take on the Maple Leafs and on the way to the game the team got caught in nightmarish rush-hour traffic that, according to the Associated Press, was also thanks to several streets being closed for the city’s annual Santa Claus parade.

Colorado head coach Deion Sanders was livid Tuesday afternoon by the decision of voters of the Jim Thorpe Award to not include Travis Hunter as a finalist for the best defensive back in college football. 
Right now, the Buffaloes DB is one of the betting favorites to win the Heisman Trophy, given to the best player in college football. Playing on both sides of the ball, Travis Hunter has been a force this season on the offensive side, being nominated for the Biletnikoff Award, which is given to the best wide receiver in the sport.
