Overall Rationale: Just missed: Arkansas, UCLA, Colorado, Navy, Wake, UNC
Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Louisville Cardinals | Still think Lamar Jackson is the best player in the country. |
2 | Alabama Crimson Tide | Really really good. |
3 | Ohio State Buckeyes | Also really really good. |
4 | Michigan Wolverines | Impressively demolished Penn State |
5 | Stanford Cardinal | 3 nice FBS wins. |
6 | Texas A&M Aggies | Arkansas, Auburn, and UCLA are some nice pelts |
7 | Wisconsin Badgers | Extremely impressive 30-6 win in East Lansing. |
8 | Houston Cougars | Win against Oklahoma is losing a bit of luster. |
9 | Clemson Tigers | Also very nice win in Atlanta |
10 | Tennessee Volunteers | Got the Florida monkey off you back! |
11 | Baylor Bears | Beat a bunch of cupcakes and then handily beat a good team. |
12 | Washington Huskies | Beat a bunch of cupcakes then not-so-handily beat a not-that-good team. Better get some things fixed before Stanford rolls into town. |
13 | Florida State Seminoles | Some semblance of a defense would be nice for the Noles. |
14 | San Diego State Aztecs | Not sure how impressed to be with their win at Cal. Somewhat impressed I suppose. |
15 | Nebraska Cornhuskers | Quietly moving on up. |
16 | Utah Utes | Kyle Whittingham's got some cajones. |
17 | Boise State Broncos | They've beaten two bad Pac-12 teams, which isn't too bad |
18 | Miami Hurricanes | @GT, vs. FSU, vs. UNC, @VT, @ND, vs. Pitt in their next six games. Yeesh. |
19 | Ole Miss Rebels | Best 2-2 team in the country. Wouldn't argue too much if you wanted to place them a few spots higher. |
20 | Arizona State Sun Devils | ASU is basically Florida State West. |
21 | West Virginia Mountaineers | 3-0 with a couple of P5 wins? Welcome to the rankings! |
22 | Western Michigan Broncos | Shame that CMU lost to take some luster off of this week's game. |
23 | Michigan State Spartans | Struggled with Furman, had a huge comeback against a not-that-good ND team, and then got blown out at home (by a probably really good Wisconsin team). I bet they will be quite a bit higher in the actual poll but this feels right to me. |
24 | Virginia Tech Hokies | |
25 | Georgia Bulldogs |
