Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Georgia Bulldogs | Georgia continue to win convincingly, but do they have any statement wins remaining? All of their best wins are about to fall out of the top 25 |
2 | Cincinnati Bearcats | After a crazy few opening drives, Cincinnati seemed in control of the game against USF the rest of the way |
3 | Oregon Ducks | 38-24 over washington State. Utah and Oregon State remain in conference play |
4 | Notre Dame Fighting Irish | 28-3 over Virginia. The game was not as close as the score indicates. |
5 | Ohio State Buckeyes | Ohio State looked dominant in a 59-31 win over Purdue, who had upset Michigan State last week |
6 | Oklahoma State Cowboys | Oklahoma State took down TCU 63-17 |
7 | Michigan State Spartans | Got the W over Maryland, who is completely inept against top 10 teams historically. The Spartans face the Buckeyes this coming weekend |
8 | Michigan Wolverines | Michigan was trailing Penn State untila late "go ahead" TD. Maryland and THE Ohio State remain on the schedule |
9 | Alabama Crimson Tide | After being down by 3 for a scary 44 seconds, Bama did what Bama does |
10 | Wake Forest Demon Deacons | Wake Forest had a close 45-42 win over NC State late Saturday. They face Clemson and Boston College next |
11 | Baylor Bears | Baylor toppled the undefeated Oklahoma and looked good doing it |
12 | Houston Cougars | Houston easily beat Temple 37-8. Unless there is a massive upset by Memphis and UConn, Houston will be headed to the AAC Championship |
13 | Oklahoma Sooners | Despite trying two QBs during the game, Oklahoma lost to Baylor |
14 | Ole Miss Rebels | Ole Miss took down Texas A&M to give them their third loss of the season. They will likely end the season in 2nd place in the SEC West |
15 | BYU Cougars | BYU had a bye week and face GA Southern next, a game in which they will be favored heavily |
16 | UTSA Roadrunners | Meep meep. 10-0 baby. They play a decent 7-3 UAB this coming weekend, which will likely deteremine the C-USA West |
17 | Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns | 35-21 over Troy! Louisiana have a late OOC game against Liberty next |
18 | Wisconsin Badgers | Wisconsin continue to look good, albeit against subpar competition. They beat Northwestern 35-7 |
19 | Pittsburgh Panthers | Pitt had a quick 17-0 lead after the first quarter against UNC, but let up in the second half. The game went to OT and the rain gods helped Pitt out a bit |
20 | Iowa Hawkeyes | Iowa beat Minnesota 27-22. They need Wisconsin to drop another conference game and also win out to go to the Big 10 Championship |
21 | San Diego State Aztecs | San Diego State has a 9-1 record, but many of their victory are by one score, including Saturday's 23-21 win over Nevada. They should easily handle UNLV before facing Boise State |
22 | Appalachian State Mountaineers | App State were only up by 7 going into the third quarter, but went up big with a 31-7 victory over the Jags |
23 | SMU Mustangs | SMU re-enter rthe top 25 with a 55-28 win over UCF. Their next game is against #2 Cincinnati |
24 | Texas A&M Aggies | Texas A&M suffered a 19-29 point loss to Ole Miss. Luckily they have a defacto bye week with Prairie View on the schedule next |
25 | Kansas State Wildcats | Kansas State are on a four game winning streak after a 34-17 win against WVU. Do they have what it takes to take down Baylor? |
