Joel Klatt's College Football Rankings: OSU Hits Next Level, Analyzing the Bubble

We're heading into conference championships weekend, and everyone is thinking about who will make the College Football Playoff. So, what better time for FOX Sports lead college football analyst Joel Klatt to drop his latest top-15 than now?

Quarterback Diego Pavia was huge in that game, and there is some outside push for Pavia for the Heisman Trophy. I think it's one of those pushes where it's like, "Hey, that'd be great for him to get to New York. I don't think that he is a
