Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Alabama Crimson Tide | Bama has the better resume, Clemson has looked better. This week went with Bama, but its basically a tie |
2 | Clemson Tigers | I don't see this team losing until the playoffs. Doesn't have a win comparable to Bama over Georgia is only reason for second |
3 | Ohio State Buckeyes | |
4 | Penn State Nittany Lions | |
5 | Georgia Bulldogs | They may just be a QB away. If Daniels gets healthy I could see them challenging Bama in the SEC champ game |
6 | Texas A&M Aggies | Moved them up off of everyone else looking bad. If this were a normal year, they don't look anywhere close to the 6th best team in the country, but at the moment no one does |
7 | Notre Dame Fighting Irish | Did not look great against Louisville, but I think they lose to Clemson and the win out to make the ACC championship game |
8 | Oregon Ducks | |
9 | Florida Gators | |
10 | Miami Hurricanes | Beat a solid beat team in the way a top 10 team should |
11 | Wisconsin Badgers | |
12 | Cincinnati Bearcats | |
13 | BYU Cougars | Probably just got their best win of the season even though it wasn't as dominant as other performances. Still unsure if they are actually good or if everyone they play is just bad (could be both) |
14 | Oklahoma State Cowboys | |
15 | USC Trojans | |
16 | North Carolina Tar Heels | Almost pulled the comeback off but didn't. I wasn't as high as everyone else was on UNC and this kinda confirmed it |
17 | SMU Mustangs | Before the season I predicted SMU to win all the games they have and lose most of the rest of them. I think their record is more of an indication of an easy schedule than an actual contender, but we will see against Cinci this week |
18 | Coastal Carolina Chanticleers | This team actually looks quality and now have a top 25 win. The chants could win the sunbelt (and maybe go undefeated) |
19 | Virginia Tech Hokies | I keep saying that as soon as VT gets healthy they will be dominant and that continues to show. I think this team has a solid shot at the ACC champ game if they can have a full team |
20 | Marshall Thundering Herd | They just keep blowing people out and have a good win over App St. This tem could easily go undefeated with the rest of their schedule |
21 | Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns | This team still looked good in their loss and I don't think the Iowa State win was a fluke so they get to stay ranked for the time being |
22 | Memphis Tigers | Only have a 3 point loss against SMU against them despite having Covid issues. Could pull out a championship game appearance with some help |
23 | Iowa State Cyclones | |
24 | Kansas State Wildcats | |
25 | Arkansas Razorbacks | Should be 3-1 and are potentially the 3rd best team in the West. Their actual record is 2-2 though so I have a hard time putting a .500 team higher than 25th |
