Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Sept. 19, 2021, 3:33 p.m.

Rank Team Reason
1 Alabama Crimson Tide Florida was one of their few tests, and they survived. Alabama continues to show why they are #1
2 Georgia Bulldogs They put South Carolina away. I have seen no weakness from this team. I am very divided if I should rank them #1 or not.
3 Oregon Ducks Put away Stony Brook as they should still without some of their best players. Only bright spot in the Pac12 right now.
4 Penn State Nittany Lions On of the best resumes in College Football right now in beating both Wisconsin and Auburn. Others have Iowa ranked above them as the top Big10 team, but I want to reward the wins Penn State has.
5 Iowa Hawkeyes I was not impressed in Iowas win, it was slow and to a team I consider inferior. But they eventually pulled it together.
6 Florida Gators Even though Florida lost, they looked great in the second half and the teams previously in front (Clemson, Oklahoma, etc). looked awful. They deserve to move up in a loss (#QUALITYLOSS)
7 Oklahoma Sooners Oklahoma is undefeated, but they are simply not putting it together. Oklahoma has been known for offense for years now, but they always play to the level of their competition. Oklahoma has simply not lived up to the Top 5 team expectations.
8 Clemson Tigers What is this offense? The defense still looks spectacular and the schedule is favorable from here on out. This is simply a horrific showing. No adjustments and inability to do anything passing or running. With the talent Clemson has, they should be running through the ACC. 5* recruit Will Shiply running for 88 yards total on 21 carries is the highlight. 126 yards total passing for an average of 5 yards per completion is just awful. Something needs to change.
9 Ohio State Buckeyes Allowed 428 yards passing as the defensive woes continued. OSU does not have a quality win on their resume yet.
10 Texas A&M Aggies
11 Boston College Eagles Quietly 3-0. Loss of their starting QB will likely have big impacts.
12 Arkansas Razorbacks Still 3-0. What a 2 year turnaround for Arkansas
13 Fresno State Bulldogs This is the biggest mover for me, I apologize Fresno was not even on my radar. Fresno lost to Oregon at Oregon by 7 points and beat UCLA who I thought was going to run through the Pac12 South. Fresno looks good and is going to make some noise.
14 Cincinnati Bearcats Cincinnati was not looking good this week and kept a bad Indiana in the game.
15 UCLA Bruins
16 Michigan Wolverines I don't want to hype Michigan up, but they are looking solid this year. Great rushing performance and decent passing. They drew a rough schedule though playing Wisconsin from this other division. The real challenge await them
17 Ole Miss Rebels This offense is humming.
18 Wisconsin Badgers
19 BYU Cougars 3-0, I thought they would regress from last season's success but they are doing great.
20 San Diego State Aztecs Underrated G5 team. Saw them play in person and their RB looks spectacular.
21 North Carolina Tar Heels
22 Iowa State Cyclones
23 Notre Dame Fighting Irish Why, oh why, is Notre Dame ranked so high? They have not looked impressive in any game even if they are 3-0. Not a single team they have beat is notable. They better figure this out soon.
24 Coastal Carolina Chanticleers
25 Wake Forest Demon Deacons Also 3-0. Potential for Wake to have an outstanding season this year.
