RPR saw Ohio State finish atop the RPR following their win over Notre Dame in the first CFP National Championship contested under a new 12-team format. The Buckeyes boasted the best Score Ratio on the year, along with Top 5 finished in Win % and SOS. The Irish and Big 10 champion Oregon (who split 2 games against the Buckeyes) fell within the CCT cutoff, but after examining their bodies of work, felt neither warranted co-champion status alongside Ohio State.
