CFP rankings reaction and Week 11 preview lead College Football Fix podcast

The first College Football Playoff rankings are out, and there's a lot to digest as we start the new era of a 12 teams making the field. Oregon led the field but the interesting storylines were what happened after the Ducks and further down the top 25 released by the committee.
The SEC led with the most teams, but the Big Ten also had four teams in the projected playoff field. Both leagues are set up to dominate the field. There were some odd choices among them. Was Indiana too low? Was Penn State and Tennessee too high? And what about unbeaten Brigham Young that is No. 9 despite two wins among teams in the top 20?
Looking ahead to Week 11, we anticipate many changes to next week's release with a schedule that features two SEC showdowns. Georgia travels to Mississippi, and LSU hosts Alabama. How will those games shake out and what other games could impact the playoff?
Dan Wolken and Paul Myerberg of USA TODAY Sports discuss these topics and more in this week's version of the College Football Fix.
