| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Alabama Crimson Tide
|
|
| 2 |
Georgia Bulldogs
|
Best win of the week. Better get that offense in shape, though. |
| 3 |
Ohio State Buckeyes
|
Consistency. |
| 4 |
Oklahoma Sooners
|
Rattler was 30/39 against Tulane. Find me a QB who tops 75% completion on an average Saturday, and I'll find you a Heisman winner. |
| 5 |
Cincinnati Bearcats
|
Just win, baby. |
| 6 |
Clemson Tigers
|
This is the top of the Slide. Little did Dabo know, installing a playground slide in his practice facility would one day lead to a slide down the rankings. Slowly. Steadily. But never stopping. At least, that's what CFB fans who are sick of seeing him embarrass himself on TV are thinking to themselves. |
| 7 |
Texas A&M Aggies
|
...Kent State? Really? ...A one-score game at halftime? .......Really? |
| 8 |
Iowa Hawkeyes
|
There went Iowa's competition for the West. |
| 9 |
Iowa State Cyclones
|
....UNI? Really? |
| 10 |
Utah Utes
|
All y'all are sleeping on the Utes, big time. Make it out of Provo with a win and they won't be challenged again until at least UCLA. Maybe Oregon. |
| 11 |
Notre Dame Fighting Irish
|
It's a good thing Jay Norvell has a bad case of icing his own kicker. |
| 12 |
Florida Gators
|
Do something. And no, packing the Swamp with Covid-positives doesn't count. |
| 13 |
Auburn Tigers
|
|
| 14 |
Penn State Nittany Lions
|
|
| 15 |
Wisconsin Badgers
|
Please understand that around here or so, the gap between teams suddenly becomes very large. Consider here to about #19 to all be tied at #17 or so. |
| 16 |
Virginia Tech Hokies
|
|
| 17 |
North Carolina Tar Heels
|
|
| 18 |
Kansas State Wildcats
|
A solid win over an admittedly underwhelming Stanford squad is better than many teams did. Also, Deuce Vaughn is fucking *fast.* |
| 19 |
Texas Longhorns
|
The Cajuns aren't what they were last season, but a win is a win. The offense will need to figure a few things out pretty fast. |
| 20 |
Tulane Green Wave
|
|
| 21 |
SMU Mustangs
|
Ponies stay relatively put despite a runaway offensive display. Mostly because others moved around them. |
| 22 |
Nevada Wolf Pack
|
A win over a P5 team is better than most G5s can claim. |
| 23 |
Florida State Seminoles
|
Stick with Milton and never look back. Or too closely at his leg. |
| 24 |
Oklahoma State Cowboys
|
Yikes. Gotta shape up against *checks notes* Missouri State. |
| 25 |
UCF Knights
|
A 5-point home win against last week's #25 earns you... the #25 spot. Congratulations. Next few out, in no particular order: UCLA, Mizzou, Miami (FL), Boise State, Troy, Memphis, Virginia |
