Despite a pair of early losses, the Cowboys have played so well as of late that they were included in the first College Football Playoff rankings of the season that released Tuesday night.

Oklahoma State came in at No. 22 — sandwiched between two Big 12 teams the Cowboys have beaten in No. 21 Kansas and No. 23 Kansas State. Some crazy, crazy stuff would have to take place for OSU to get into the CFP, but this is a nice recognition of just how far the Cowboys have come over the past month.

The intrigue at this particular ranking comes at the top, where the committee put Ohio State ahead of Georgia with Michigan and Florida State finishing out the top four. Unbeaten Washington is the first team out of the playoff despite being unbeaten.

OSU’s in-state rival Oklahoma with enter this weekend’s all-important Bedlam matchup at No. 9. That’s two spots behind No. 7 Texas — the highest-ranked team in the Big 12.
