Miami and Notre Dame have identical records. Miami beat Notre Dame. So why are the Fighting Irish ahead of the Hurricanes in latest CFP rankings?

New College Football Playoff committee chair Hunter Yurachek went straight into the firing line after Tuesday's CFP rankings reveal.

Miami can’t make that SMU loss go away by arguing, underlining its win vs. Notre Dame, showing its good television appeal or humming loudly when the facts are laid out before it.

The top three teams in the CFP rankings remain the same as last week, but plenty of controversy and chaos follows as the rest of the field sorts itself out.

The College Football Playoff picture within the ACC this season is a convoluted mess coming down the stretch, much of that due to 15th-ranked Miami's recent failures as one of the league's most-talented teams.

The Miami Hurricanes' College Football Playoff hopes have started to take more hits with two weeks remaining in the regular season.

“Miami star cornerback Keionte Scott is set to miss the No. 15 Hurricanes’ game against NC State on Saturday due to a lower extremity injury he suffered last week vs. SMU, sources tell @CBSSports,” Zenitz shared via a social media post on X, formerly Twitter.
