The first release of the 2016 College Football Playoff poll brings both excitement and relief for many teams. Although the members of the Top 4 are known, where they fall is not.
This is mainly due to the fact that it’s a question of who is AFTER #1 Alabama in the 2016 College Football Playoff Top 25. Will it be a Michigan team that has completely come out of a funk? Or we could go with Clemson, who has pulled off miracles on their own accord. But don’t forget about the West Coast darlings in the Washington Huskies, they will make their presence felt and known.
While the members of the Top 4 are known and documented, those following these four are not known. We can speculate more and more about who should be there, but who will be there is another question. We can look at many other sources for who should be there, but let’s be honest, you came here for a reason. That reason is to find out who I think should be there. So let’s just go right to it.
