Overall Rationale: No 4 loss teams ranked (yet).
Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Alabama Crimson Tide | The dismantling of LSU is proof enough. |
2 | Clemson Tigers | I wasn't impressed with them earlier in the season but as of now, they are one of few teams that I think stays within 4 scores vs Bama |
3 | Michigan Wolverines | This Michigan team is impressive. They are on the short list of teams that could at least make a game v Bama interesting to watch (for a bit). |
4 | Notre Dame Fighting Irish | Although they beat Michigan to start the season, I don't know if they would beat them today. Competitive and good but I don't think that they are tier 1b.  |
5 | Georgia Bulldogs |  The Bulldogs have worked their way back after losing to LSU by destroying Florida and Kentucky. |
6 | LSU Tigers | Honestly losing 29-0 to Bama didn't really hurt my view of LSU that much. They fell from 4 to 6. |
7 | Oklahoma Sooners | While I think the Sooners are great, they blew their only shot so far at proving they are. That match up vs West Virginia is going to be huge. |
8 | UCF Knights | Demolishing Pitt earlier in the season is looking good but there still hasn't been a statement game from the reigning champs. The game v Cincy is likely their only ranked v ranked match up of the season. |
9 | West Virginia Mountaineers | Great close win over Texas. Other than the loss @ Iowa State, this is exactly what you would expect of a top 10 team.  |
10 | Washington State Cougars | If it wasn't for the Pac 12's interference, this would be an undefeated team with a solid shot at the playoff, now they feel like a long shot but only one big obstacle remains. |
11 | Ohio State Buckeyes | I think Urban is looking for an excuse to step down right about now. |
12 | Utah State Aggies | Average half time score for the Aggies this season is 30-8. The second string has allowed a lot of points to hurt the Aggies image, but this team is goooooood. |
13 | Texas Longhorns | All 3 losses are within 7 points and 2 of the 3 are on the road. This team is goo but they aren't quite back yet. |
14 | Mississippi State Bulldogs | |
15 | Fresno State Bulldogs | |
16 | Boston College Eagles | |
17 | Penn State Nittany Lions | |
18 | Syracuse Orange | |
19 | Washington Huskies | |
20 | Kentucky Wildcats | |
21 | NC State Wolfpack | |
22 | Utah Utes | I expect NOOOOOvember to get worse with the loss of huntley. That Tuttle transfer is really hurting now. |
23 | Florida Gators | |
24 | Auburn Tigers | |
25 | Cincinnati Bearcats |
