Oregon rose seven places to No. 16 in the College Football Playoff rankings after a 41-28 road win over Ohio State, becoming the highest-ranked three-loss team. The 6-3 Ducks have a strong résumé that includes wins over Ohio State, USC and Boise State, and ESPN analyst Greg McElroy argued they may still be ranked too low. Oregon remains outside the projected playoff field, however, and likely needs to win its remaining games while teams ranked ahead of it lose. Its upcoming games against Michigan and Michigan State offer little room for error as the Ducks pursue either a conference-title route or an at-large bid.

Atlanta is trying to end a two-game skid despite roster changes, but has shown it can rebound against top teams; Kansas City has won its past two trips to face the Falcons.

FAA Ground Stop Puts College Game Kickoffs in Doubt

A nationwide FAA ground stop tied to air-traffic communications problems disrupted college football travel: Auburn switched to a bus, Texas faced delays before its LSU game, and Washington remained grounded in Seattle ahead of its matchup with Michigan State.
