Overall Rationale: I went win heavy this week. The resumes are beginning to flesh themselves out a bit.
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Alabama Crimson Tide
|
|
| 2 |
Clemson Tigers
|
|
| 3 |
Penn State Nittany Lions
|
|
| 4 |
Georgia Bulldogs
|
|
| 5 |
Washington Huskies
|
|
| 6 |
TCU Horned Frogs
|
|
| 7 |
Washington State Cougars
|
|
| 8 |
Wisconsin Badgers
|
|
| 9 |
Ohio State Buckeyes
|
Yes, placing tOSU over OU is a bit suspect right now, but the Buckeyes didn't lose to Iowa State and they are destroying just about everybody on their schedule. Also jumped Bama on S&P+ so that's something. |
| 10 |
Auburn Tigers
|
|
| 11 |
Oklahoma Sooners
|
OSU has a really bad loss, but let's not forget they still beat Ohio State.  |
| 12 |
Miami Hurricanes
|
Still a bit of an enigma, but a win in Doak is a win in Doak. Will Mark Richt blow it to inferior competition? Find out next week on Hurricane Ball Z.  |
| 13 |
Oklahoma State Cowboys
|
|
| 14 |
USC Trojans
|
|
| 15 |
Virginia Tech Hokies
|
USC and VT are really close: Stanford is roughly equivalent to WVU, but Texas is a better win than everything else on VT's schedule.  |
| 16 |
Notre Dame Fighting Irish
|
|
| 17 |
San Diego State Aztecs
|
|
| 18 |
USF Bulls
|
USF doesn't have any wins over real quality teams, but I have to reward them for the way they've been railroading everybody.  |
| 19 |
Michigan State Spartans
|
|
| 20 |
Michigan Wolverines
|
They do not look very good. AP putting them above MSU is bullshit.  |
| 21 |
NC State Wolfpack
|
I was debating putting them above the Michigan teams, but really, South Carolina? They may or may not move up depending on how Louisville and FSU's seasons pay out.  |
| 22 |
UCF Knights
|
|
| 23 |
Navy Midshipmen
|
|
| 24 |
Texas Tech Red Raiders
|
|
| 25 |
Stanford Cardinal
|
WVU is my first team out. This was tough, but I like Stanford's wins a bit more.  |
