A prediction for where the South Carolina Gamecocks will land in the college football playoff rankings on Tuesday.

The college football playoff rankings will be released Tuesday evening after a very chaotic weekend of college football. Alabama lost to Oklahoma, Ole Miss lost to Florida, Ohio State defeated Indiana and Colorado lost to Kansas. All of those things are likely good things for South Carolina as they will rise in the rankings yet again this week.

South Carolina will still likely need some help to make the top 12 when the final playoff rankings are announced but things continue to work in their favor for those odds to continue to increase. They will have another big opportunity this weekend against Clemson to earn another notable win and where they land in this week's rankings will provide more insight of their chances. Last week they came in at No. 18 so where will the committee have them ranked this week?

College Football Playoff Rankings Prediction:

1. Oregon
2. Ohio State
3. Texas
4. Penn State
5. Notre Dame
6. Georgia
7. Miami
8. Tennessee
9. SMU
10. Indiana
11. Boise State
12. Arizona State
13. Clemson
14. Alabama
15. Ole Miss
16. South Carolina
17. Iowa State
18. Tulane
19. Texas A&M
20. BYU
21. UNLV
22. Illinois
23. Colorado
24. Army
25. Kansas State

With South Carolina, Alabama and Ole Miss all having three losses but the Rebels and Crimson Tide having the head to head win over the Gamecocks, it's likely they will still be ahead of South Carolina. At least that seems to be how the committee has operated in previous rankings.
