So, I got a little bored at work again tonight and decided to look and see what the average offensive ranking and the average defensive ranking was for the teams to make and to win the CFP. I also looked at the lowest ranked offense to make it and the lowest defensive ranking to make it. Finally, I looked where Kentucky has been offensively and defensively in the CFP era and also the last 5 years of it. Let’s see what you all think about it.
