Georgia Bulldogs

|
| 2 |
Alabama Crimson Tide
|
Drop a spot because they probably should have lost to Texas and were bailed out by referee nonsense and Texas being unable to convert in the redzone. A win is a win though. |
| 3 |
Ohio State Buckeyes
|
The Notre Dame win looks much worse, but we don't know enough about Michigan, and the teams in the 5-9 range have clear weaknesses. |
| 4 |
Michigan Wolverines
|
We will know next to nothing about just how good Michigan is until week 4, as the OOC schedule features 3 teams in the bottom 25. They are taking care of business as expected though |
| 5 |
Clemson Tigers
|
|
| 6 |
Oklahoma Sooners
|
|
| 7 |
Arkansas Razorbacks
|
Couple of solid wins against Scar and Cincinnati. I think the two teams they beat averaged together are probably better than most other resumes? |
| 8 |
BYU Cougars
|
Both BYU and Kentucky jump up majorly after impressive wins |
| 9 |
Kentucky Wildcats
|
|
| 10 |
Michigan State Spartans
|
|
| 11 |
Oklahoma State Cowboys
|
|
| 12 |
USC Trojans
|
Not entirely sold on USC, but their offense will end up being good enough to hang with anyone |
| 13 |
Tennessee Volunteers
|
Decent win against Pitt, maybe looks a bit less shiny after WVU lost to Kansas |
| 14 |
Penn State Nittany Lions
|
I'm less sold on everyone below Penn State, so I guess they get #14? |
| 15 |
NC State Wolfpack
|
|
| 16 |
Utah Utes
|
I think Utah is a very good to great team that lost to another solid team on the road, they are clearly the best of the 1-loss teams |
| 17 |
Miami Hurricanes
|
|
| 18 |
Wake Forest Demon Deacons
|
Hartman is back, so they re-enter the rankings |
| 19 |
Ole Miss Rebels
|
|
| 20 |
Mississippi State Bulldogs
|
|
| 21 |
Florida Gators
|
Kentucky is a very good team, but a kind of flukey win against Utah and a loss can only put you so high up |
| 22 |
Texas Longhorns
|
|
| 23 |
Baylor Bears
|
|
| 24 |
Cincinnati Bearcats
|
Similar to Utah and Florida, I think Cinci and Arkansas are both good teams and *someone* had to lose their game |
| 25 |
Marshall Thundering Herd
|
Ranking them on principle |
