• Analysis

Rank	Team	Reason
1	Ohio State Buckeyes	Ohio State have demolished pretty much everyone they have played and their schedule hasn't just been against Northeast Delaware State either
2	Alabama Crimson Tide	Have also killed pretty much everyone, but haven't played anyone in the top 40 yet
3	Georgia Bulldogs	Didn't play, but moved up due to Wisconsin and Clemson looking bad
4	Oklahoma Sooners	They have just run over everyone they have played, but also haven't played anyone great
5	LSU Tigers	Didn't play, but moved up due to Wisconsin and Clemson looking bad
6	Clemson Tigers	This is probably an overreaction, but my top 6 are all really close at this point and none of the others have even come close to losing
7	Wisconsin Badgers	Offense looked pretty horrible, were saved by defense against a mediocre Northwestern team
8	Auburn Tigers	Auburn lacks the WOW factor that the top 7 have, but they’ve got the best resume so far
9	Notre Dame Fighting Irish	Nice win over Virginia, last two weeks have been nice resume builders for the Irish
10	Oregon Ducks	Didn't play, but moved down one spot due to impressive Notre Dame win
11	Iowa Hawkeyes	Beat up on an MTSU team that gave Michigan some issues. Could easily see them winning their division
12	Penn State Nittany Lions	Destroyed a Maryland team that has at one point looked incredible. I'm not sure it is as impressive as it would have been a few weeks ago
13	Texas Longhorns	Didn't play, 10-13 are all pretty much on level field right now
14	Boise State Broncos	Didn't play, I think the Broncos are the best G5 team
15	Florida Gators	Beat Towson convincingly, this weeks game will go a long way in figuring out if the Gators are actually good or not
16	Washington Huskies	Good win over USC, its looking like the the Washington-Oregon game will be for their division
17	Utah Utes	Good win over a good washington state team
18	Memphis Tigers	Great win over a good Navy team. I think this may be the year that the Tigers win the American
19	Michigan Wolverines	Did what you do to Rutgers, dropped them a bit due to Wisconsin not looking as good this week
20	North Dakota State Bison	I think that NDSU would be competitive at a neutral site against 100-110 FBS teams. They will stay ranked until someone does something impressive that is below them
21	UCF Knights	They beat Uconn bad, nothing new gained this week
22	Oklahoma State Cowboys	Beat probably the 4th or 5th best team in their conference by a good margin
23	Arizona State Sun Devils	Hello Arizona State and welcome the the Pac 12 team that I ranked in the 20's because I don't know who else to rank. Be prepared to lose a game you shouldn't probably at 2 a.m. and fall out
24	Michigan State Spartans	Beat a descent Indiana team
25	SMU Mustangs	The award for strangest reason I'm ranking a team goes to SMU. I'm ranking them for beating a TCU team that clobbered an okay Kansas team. Yes, Kansas is the reason SMU is ranked
