| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Alabama Crimson Tide
|
|
| 2 |
Michigan Wolverines
|
Ahead of OSU because better wins |
| 3 |
Ohio State Buckeyes
|
Ahead of Clemson because better wins and a better loss |
| 4 |
Clemson Tigers
|
|
| 5 |
Washington Huskies
|
Ahead of Wisconsin for having one less loss |
| 6 |
Wisconsin Badgers
|
|
| 7 |
Western Michigan Broncos
|
|
| 8 |
Penn State Nittany Lions
|
Ahead of Colorado because of a better win despite a worse loss |
| 9 |
Colorado Buffaloes
|
|
| 10 |
Oklahoma Sooners
|
Better win over common opponent in WVU |
| 11 |
Oklahoma State Cowboys
|
|
| 12 |
USC Trojans
|
Highest ranked 3 loss team simple because of how well they're playing. |
| 13 |
Louisville Cardinals
|
If you want to be considered top 4 you don't lose to Houston when you're favored by two TDs |
| 14 |
Florida State Seminoles
|
Ahead of Florida because I think they're the better team. Will find out soon. |
| 15 |
Florida Gators
|
|
| 16 |
Boise State Broncos
|
Doesn't control it's on conference destiny. |
| 17 |
Houston Cougars
|
Can't win their conference, but they have two realllllllly nice wins. And one terrible loss. |
| 18 |
West Virginia Mountaineers
|
|
| 19 |
Utah Utes
|
Can still spoil the Buffs magical season. |
| 20 |
Nebraska Cornhuskers
|
Their best win is Wyoming, who is good, but come on. |
| 21 |
Navy Midshipmen
|
I could see Navy actually slipping in and stealing that Cotton Bowl berth. |
| 22 |
Stanford Cardinal
|
|
| 23 |
Auburn Tigers
|
|
| 24 |
Washington State Cougars
|
|
| 25 |
USF Bulls
|
Gets the nod over TAMU and Tennessee because I think the Bulls would win. Also could sneak in and steal the Cotton Bowl berth. |
