| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Alabama Crimson Tide
|
The discussion  for #1 comes down to Clemson, Bama, and Ohio StateAt the moment Alabama has the best win after beating A&M |
| 2 |
Clemson Tigers
|
Pretty much equal with Bama but with slightly worse wins |
| 3 |
Ohio State Buckeyes
|
|
| 4 |
Georgia Bulldogs
|
Best win in country right now with win over Auburn. Offense leaves some questions |
| 5 |
Florida Gators
|
Offense looks incredible, but almost let USC back into it and defense is suspect |
| 6 |
Penn State Nittany Lions
|
|
| 7 |
Miami Hurricanes
|
3 really good wins over UAB, Louisville, and FSU. Possibly best overall resume so far |
| 8 |
Notre Dame Fighting Irish
|
|
| 9 |
Oregon Ducks
|
|
| 10 |
Wisconsin Badgers
|
|
| 11 |
Cincinnati Bearcats
|
My preseason pick to win the American. Looking more likely with UCF loss |
| 12 |
Virginia Tech Hokies
|
If they get well, they could be really scary |
| 13 |
USC Trojans
|
Schedule is looking super favorable. Expectations should be high |
| 14 |
Auburn Tigers
|
The perpetual struggle of Auburn. You think they are good then get blown out only to upset someone big later in the season |
| 15 |
North Carolina Tar Heels
|
Struggled a bit with BC, but still look good |
| 16 |
Tennessee Volunteers
|
Their offensive line looked incredible against Missouri. If they can establish the run against Georgia it could be close |
| 17 |
Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns
|
I still think Louisiana is going undefeated this year. Those expectations are why they are so high right now |
| 18 |
BYU Cougars
|
No one has been more dominant than BYU unfortunately their schedule has been a bit weak. Could go undefeated if they can beat Boise |
| 19 |
Texas A&M Aggies
|
Looked iffy against Vandy. Got blown out by Bama, but I think they are better than that |
| 20 |
Oklahoma State Cowboys
|
Finally had a good win. Their other wins have all been close. I guess they may be favorites to win the Big 12 now though |
| 21 |
SMU Mustangs
|
Only 4-0 team in the country. I'm still docking them a bit for the close win over Texas State |
| 22 |
Marshall Thundering Herd
|
|
| 23 |
Minnesota Golden Gophers
|
|
| 24 |
Michigan Wolverines
|
|
| 25 |
Coastal Carolina Chanticleers
|
I ran out of teams to rank so the Chanticleers get a vote for being 3-0. I don't think they are actually one of the 25 best teams, but they don't have any major flaws of their resume like everyone else who has played |
