• Analysis

Rank	Team	Reason
1	Alabama Crimson Tide
2	Clemson Tigers	Showed up, took care of business, were efficient doing it.
3	Ohio State Buckeyes	Secondary got a little exposed in the first half, but the whole team looked great the second half.  Would be #2 if they had shown up for the first half.
4	Penn State Nittany Lions	Saquon, Say-gone is one of the more annoying broadcaster things of Week 1.  But they played well.
5	Florida State Seminoles	The defense is great.  The special teams are just ok.  The offense is ? without Francois.
6	Oklahoma Sooners
7	LSU Tigers	That game could've been so much worse for BYU.
8	Oklahoma State Cowboys	OSU....might have a defense?  That'll make them dangerous.
9	Wisconsin Badgers
10	USC Trojans	WMU should not have been able to hang with them, but USC did eventually win over a team that played mistake free. Darnold didn't look great.
11	Washington Huskies
12	Michigan Wolverines
13	Auburn Tigers
14	Stanford Cardinal
15	Georgia Bulldogs	Fromm looks better than Eason, but he has a bit too much of the gunslinger in him.  Michel is still better than Chubb. That DL is good.  We'll find out a lot more this week, especially about the OL.
16	Virginia Tech Hokies	Solid performance against a solid WVU squad.
17	TCU Horned Frogs
18	Oregon Ducks
19	Mississippi State Bulldogs
20	Kansas State Wildcats
21	Florida Gators	Defense looks good.  Offense sucks a lot.  Don Brown is good, but UF should still be able to move the ball.
22	USF Bulls
23	West Virginia Mountaineers	Grier is the real thing.
24	Louisville Cardinals
25	Tennessee Volunteers
