On Saturday morning, the ESPN College GameDay cast updated its current top four teams in the College Football Playoff hunt as we head into Week 6’s slate of games.
All four analysts — Lee Corso, Kirk Herbstreit, David Pollack, and Desmond Howard — include Ohio State in their rankings, though in various order. The only constant is that Alabama is the consensus No. 1, which comes to no surprise.

Corso:
1. Alabama
2. Notre Dame
3. Ohio State
