In the first release of the 2019 College Football Playoff rankings, the Baylor Bears (8-0) checked in as the No. 12 team in the country.

The inclusion in the Tuesday rankings is the first time for the Bears to be in the CFP rankings since receiving the No. 17 ranking in week 15 of the 2015 season. Receiving the highest ranking in the history of the CFP, the 2014 Baylor Bears peaked at No. 5 in the final ranking of the regular season. 

Currently sitting on top of the Big 12 standing with a perfect 5-0 mark in league play, just ahead of 4-1 Oklahoma, Baylor is ranked No. 10 the Coaches Poll and No. 11 in the Associated Press Poll. 

Matt Rhule’s Bears return to action on Saturday at 11 a.m. CT when they travel to Fort Worth to take on the TCU Horned Frogs (4-4).

I think KState and OkSt being ranked is huge!! Baylor wins and we are in. Very good chance of losing one and still being in if the above two teams stated above keep winning.......and the Bears beat Oklahoma and Texas. Happy for Matt Rhule and the kids, they worked hard to get to this point with alot of negativity surrounding them that first year.

Good to see these people really think for themselves. It's basically a rehashed AP/coaches poll.

Are Utah and Oregon as good as these polls indicate?

True. I hope Penn State beats OSU.
