Rank	Team	Reason
1	Alabama Crimson Tide
2	Oklahoma Sooners
3	Clemson Tigers
4	Oklahoma State Cowboys
5	Penn State Nittany Lions
6	Wisconsin Badgers
7	Washington Huskies
8	Michigan Wolverines
9	USC Trojans
10	Mississippi State Bulldogs	Win over LSU was very impressive. Essentially equal to Georgia, but they have a better win, so they get the top 10 nod.
11	Georgia Bulldogs
12	Ohio State Buckeyes
13	TCU Horned Frogs
14	Virginia Tech Hokies
15	Oregon Ducks
16	Florida Gators
17	Duke Blue Devils
18	Vanderbilt Commodores
19	Utah Utes
20	Auburn Tigers	The dropping will continue until the offense improves. It was awful against Mercer. Defense continues to perform well.
21	San Diego State Aztecs
22	Colorado Buffaloes
23	West Virginia Mountaineers
24	Florida State Seminoles	It isn't their fault, but other teams have impressed and they haven't. They have a chance to do so against NCSU this weekend.
25	Miami Hurricanes	Next chance to play a good team is against Duke in 2 weeks. This team is tough to rank until then.
