Where Missouri Lands in Fourth CFP Rankings

Did the Tigers slide up, down or stay in the same spot after surviving Florida's upset attempt?

The fourth College Football Playoff rankings were revealed on Tuesday night.

The 9-2 Missouri Tigers moved from No. 11 to No. 10 in the AP Poll after surviving Florida's upset attempt this past Saturday, but they remained at No. 9 in the CFP rankings for the second consecutive week.

Missouri is having its best season since 2013 and is aiming for a 10th win against 4-7 Arkansas on Friday. The Tigers won't make the College Football Playoff due to their two losses and ineligibility to make the SEC Championship game, but a victory over the Razorbacks will make a New Year's Six bowl game appearance much more likely.
