Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Alabama Crimson Tide | Took care of business over Fresno State, good win over the other FSU. |
2 | Oklahoma Sooners | Strong performance against Ohio State. |
3 | Penn State Nittany Lions | Efficient win against Pitt. Offense looks scary good, but defense might be vulnerable. |
4 | Clemson Tigers | Defense looked great! Offense did not. This team will be interesting to watch. They have the best DL in college football...and I don't think it's particularly close. |
5 | Oklahoma State Cowboys | Does OSU have a defense?? That could be worrying. They took care of business against USA. |
6 | USC Trojans | Stanford is a quality team, and USC whupped em. But they did not look good against WMU, so they're not moving too far up. |
7 | Florida State Seminoles | Championship defense. Offense without Francois is a question. |
8 | LSU Tigers | Don't know too much. We'll see how they do this week against Nick Fitzgerald. |
9 | Wisconsin Badgers | Typical Wisconsin so far. That freshman back might be Melvin Gordon part 2. |
10 | Washington Huskies | They still haven't played anyone decent, but they looked good doing it. |
11 | Michigan Wolverines | Defense looks ok. Offense needs help. |
12 | Ohio State Buckeyes | Barrett is not the answer at QB. Secondary got exposed, but how much of that was the secondary, and how much was Mayfield being a good QB? |
13 | Georgia Bulldogs | Not sure how good the ND win is - neither team really looked great. But I'll give 'em credit for the win. Michel continues to be better than Chubb. |
14 | TCU Horned Frogs | Good win at Arkansas. |
15 | Auburn Tigers | Game was close against a good team...some ineptness on offense, but that might be just how good Clemson's defense is. |
16 | Virginia Tech Hokies | Good win against WVU. Not a great performance against Delaware, though. Foster gets the benefit of the doubt, not ready to do that with the offense. |
17 | Oregon Ducks | Was a messy game against Nebraska at the end, but they controlled most of the way. Offense looks good against, but the defense will be a question. |
18 | Mississippi State Bulldogs | Game against LSU is going to be very interesting. Fitzgerald continues to be one of the more underrated QBs in the country. That won't last if he shows out against LSU. |
19 | Miami Hurricanes | I totally forgot to include them on my ballot last week. Stay safe y'all. |
20 | Duke Blue Devils | Great showing against Northwestern. Jones is a sneaky good QB. |
21 | Stanford Cardinal | USC gutted that defense. |
22 | Louisville Cardinals | Lamar Jackson is still good. The defense is still not a plus. |
23 | Kansas State Wildcats | Just beating up on overmatched teams right now. |
24 | Florida Gators | Stay safe y'all. |
25 | Colorado Buffaloes | Flying a bit under the radar, but they've played efficiently. |
