Ohio State, Penn State, LSU and Georgia would be the top four seeds in the College Football Playoff based on the first Associated Press Top 25 poll of the regular season while Miami, Oregon, Texas and Clemson would host first-round games.

The Big Ten and Southeastern Conference each would have four teams in the 12-team field and the Atlantic Coast Conference would have two. Notre Dame would be in as an independent. So would South Florida as the Group of Five member receiving the most votes among unranked teams this week.

Based on the AP Top 25, the CFP would open like this:

— No. 9 seed Notre Dame at No. 8 Clemson. Winner vs. No. 1 Ohio State.

— No. 12 seed South Florida at No. 5 seed Miami. Winner vs. No. 4 Georgia.

— No. 10 seed South Carolina at No. 7 seed Texas. Winner vs. No. 2
