Miami Hurricanes Ranked 12th in fifth CFP rankings for 2025

On Tuesday night, the College Football Playoff (CFP) committee released the fifth installment of its rankings for the 2025 season.

After a blowout win over Pitt to close the regular season, Miami saw no movement in their ranking. They remained 12th.

Let me get this out of the way now: the CFP committee is full of shit, and they are clearly pushing an anti-Miami agenda. It’s been in the broadcasts of games across the sport, and in every iteration of the CFP rankings this season. Regardless of the committee chair, they have been clear and coordinated in their alignment against Miami, and have eschewed precedence and logic to continue to rank Miami lower than they should be.

Let me be clear: I am upset that Miami lost games. But that does not excuse the committee’s malfeasance in this year’s rankings.

If you haven’t caught on yet, I’m fucking pissed.

The Full CFP rankings, including the first few teams on the outside looking in. The committee has removed Miami from the projected bracket since they are not in the ACC Championship Game, and have no path to the ACC’s automatic berth in the bracket.

Miami won out to get to 10-2. Too bad the committee doesn’t care.

According to our friends at FanDuel Sportsbook, Miami started the season at +4000 to win the National Championship. That number fell to +2200 and +1600 through the month of September, hitting a low of +900 after Miami beat Florida State. Following the 2nd loss of the year at SMU, Miami’s odds ballooned to +12,500.

Miami’s odds to win the National Championship have had a rollercoaster ride over recent weeks. Three weeks ago, the number was Miami +10000. Two weeks ago, the number was: Miami +6500. Last week, the number improved slightly to Miami +6000.

This week, with Miami at home and not in the ACC Championship Game (wonderful tiebreakers you have by the way, ACC), Miami’s odds have plummeted. Present number: Miami +12500, more than DOUBLE what it was a week ago. If that doesn’t point to Miami being left out of the bracket entirely, I don’t know what does.

The goal is clear: get to 10-2 and force the committee to do the right and logical thing and put Miami in the CFP over a Notre Dame team they beat head to head this season. Period. Nevermind. The committee is corrupt, engaged in a broad and coordinated campaign against Miami, and will do whatever they need to in order to cheat Miami out of their rightful ranking ABOVE A TEAM THEY BEAT. And now, they’re putting Alabama up into position where, even with a loss, they’re insulated and will make the playoffs regardless.

It’s all but over for Miami. The final nail in the coffin will come at the CFP bracket announcement on Sunday afternoon.
