Overall Rationale: What I felt like these teams were going into the season vs what we got during week one. Oregon falls out of my top 25 while Notre Dame was never in my top 25 to begin with. 26. UNC, 27. UCF, 28. Minnesota, 29. Iowa, 30. Notre Dame
Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Georgia Bulldogs | Had the better game than Alabama and the tougher opponent |
2 | Alabama Crimson Tide | Was my No.1 going into the season but Georgia as of now has proven more than the tide |
3 | Ohio State Buckeyes | Did what they needed to do |
4 | Michigan Wolverines | Did what they needed to do |
5 | Clemson Tigers | Did what they needed to do |
6 | Texas A&M Aggies | Did what they needed to do |
7 | USC Trojans | Did what they needed to do |
8 | Oklahoma Sooners | Originally had Oklahoma State as my #1 Big 12 team but Oklahoma thus far has looked better. |
9 | Miami Hurricanes | Did what they needed to do and then some |
10 | Arkansas Razorbacks | Got the job done against a top 25 team in convincing fashion. |
11 | Baylor Bears | Did what they needed to do in a nice fashion |
12 | Pittsburgh Panthers | Beat a strong West Virginia game in what felt like a neutral site game with the amount of West Virginia fans. |
13 | Oklahoma State Cowboys | Originally my #1 Big 12 team but questions must be asked after giving up 44 to Central Michigan |
14 | Wake Forest Demon Deacons | Did what they needed to do |
15 | BYU Cougars | Did what they needed to do |
16 | Wisconsin Badgers | Did what they needed to do |
17 | Kentucky Wildcats | Did what they needed to do |
18 | Penn State Nittany Lions | Quite a scare against the Spoilermakers but pulled through in the end |
19 | Houston Cougars | Beat one of the toughest G5 schools. Would have been higher if they didn't go into overtime but undefeated is still undefeated for a team I had in my preseason top 25. |
20 | Coastal Carolina Chanticleers | Beat a strong G5 school in Army convincingly. This team could make noise towards the end but not enough for a playoff spot. |
21 | NC State Wolfpack | Wolfpack survived on the road. Was originally in my top 15 but a close one to a middle of the road American team creeps in doubts |
22 | Florida Gators | Beat Utah |
23 | Ole Miss Rebels | Did what they needed to do |
24 | Michigan State Spartans | Did what they needed to do |
25 | Utah Utes | Lost to Florida. |
