Georgia Bulldogs

So at first I had Bama #1, but thinking about it there is no reason not to have Georgia at #1. They have had no close calls and they went to Notre Dame and won. So much time has been spent talking about a Bama/Georgia rematch in the playoffs but what about a Georgia/ND rematch? Bama still does not have a marquee win, yes FSU lost their QB but their defense has not looked great either which was talked about as being good enough to carry FSU.  |

ND is most likely better than Wisconsin and Miami but as shown by OU/Clemson going undefeated against teams you should can still be tough. |
| 8 |
Oklahoma Sooners
|
The defense has looked shakey but the offense is still getting it done. The last time 31 points wasn't good enough to beat Iowa State was Iowa State's last win in 1990. If Mike Stoops can pull his head out of his ass this team has the ability to compete against anyone. But as long as the defense can't figure it out it is a weakness that can cost OU. |

Better wins than Ohio State right not but barely ahead of them for me. |
