Overall Rationale: Computer poll is still borked, so here is human.
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Alabama Crimson Tide
|
Still at the top, solid showing against Arkansas. |
| 2 |
Ohio State Buckeyes
|
Took care of business against Indiana |
| 3 |
Georgia Bulldogs
|
Good showing against Vanderbilt |
| 4 |
Clemson Tigers
|
Completely dismantled Wake |
| 5 |
Notre Dame Fighting Irish
|
Won good road test against VT. |
| 6 |
West Virginia Mountaineers
|
WVU may have barely gotten by Kansas but with 2 other top 10 teams losing they get to move up. |
| 7 |
Penn State Nittany Lions
|
Had a bye week and still moved up 3 spots. |
| 8 |
Washington Huskies
|
Had a rough showdown on the road but still came out with the win. |
| 9 |
UCF Knights
|
Hey UCF, look at you! Number 9, moving on up. |
| 10 |
Michigan Wolverines
|
Maybe that loss to ND wasn't as bad as it seemed at the time. This week should help with a solid Wisconsin team coming to town. |
| 11 |
Texas Longhorns
|
I'm cautious on Texas, but they had a solid win against Oklahoma. |
| 12 |
LSU Tigers
|
Close loss to a good Florida team on the road. |
| 13 |
Oklahoma Sooners
|
Texas may have exposed a weakness that many already knew about. Unless more conferences start having their contenders lose the Big 12 may be out of the playoff picture. |
| 14 |
Florida Gators
|
Florida is on a two game winning streak against ranked foes. |
| 15 |
Wisconsin Badgers
|
Chaos around them, and the badgers move up a spot. |
| 16 |
Oregon Ducks
|
Still winning. |
| 17 |
Miami Hurricanes
|
Barely squeaked out against FSU. |
| 18 |
Kentucky Wildcats
|
Tough loss on the road due to some...questionable...play calling. |
| 19 |
Colorado Buffaloes
|
Still winning, keep moving up. |
| 20 |
Auburn Tigers
|
Clanga too much.  |
| 21 |
NC State Wolfpack
|
I missed State in my poll last week. They have a tough game against Clemson coming up after a bye. |
| 22 |
Texas A&M Aggies
|
Solid win over a tough Kentucky team. |
| 23 |
USF Bulls
|
Still winning. |
| 24 |
Mississippi State Bulldogs
|
Good win against Auburn |
| 25 |
Cincinnati Bearcats
|
Undefeated. |
