The third edition of the college football playoff rankings were revealed on Tuesday night, and Oklahoma State got a nice bump from the committee after topping a ranked Iowa State team in Ames.

The Cowboys moved from No. 15 to 13 in the latest poll, the biggest riser among Big 12 squads this week. TCU saw a tumble from grace six spots from 6 to 12 following its blowout loss to Oklahoma in Norman on Saturday.

While the rankings certainly do matter, for OSU they are less relevant. The bottom line is this: Win out, get a TCU loss this weekend (or to Baylor), and you’re playing for the Big 12 title. A spot in the playoff, at this point, seems incredibly far-fetched. But a conference title — which the rankings won’t have any say in — is absolutely in play.

Here’s a look at the updated rankings with three weeks to go.
