Overall Rationale: Arbitrary personal metrics with some head-to-head sprinkled in
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Georgia Bulldogs
|
Overlooked Kent State, still has the best game in the nation against Oregon |
| 2 |
Ohio State Buckeyes
|
Taken care of business so far |
| 3 |
Alabama Crimson Tide
|
Gave up 3 points to Vanderbilt, looked shaky against Texas |
| 4 |
Clemson Tigers
|
Finished out a road game against a quality opponent, offense looked alive |
| 5 |
Michigan Wolverines
|
Allowed Maryland to stay in the game at home, needs to be tested against even more quality opponents for a more accurate ranking |
| 6 |
Tennessee Volunteers
|
In love with a Hooker, who threw 0 interceptions against Florida and Pitt |
| 7 |
Kentucky Wildcats
|
Uninspiring performance against NIU puts them below Tennessee |
| 8 |
Oklahoma State Cowboys
|
I have no confidence in this ranking until they play Baylor |
| 9 |
Pittsburgh Panthers
|
Played Tennessee to the wire |
| 10 |
NC State Wolfpack
|
Very low confidence in this ranking until the Clemson game |
| 11 |
Washington Huskies
|
Will likely fall if signature win against Michigan State continues to look unimpressive |
| 12 |
Oregon Ducks
|
Displayed incredible resolve on the road at Washington State |
| 13 |
Ole Miss Rebels
|
Have taken out the trash with few concerning hiccups, rank is very temporary with the game against Kentucky next week |
| 14 |
Penn State Nittany Lions
|
Patiently waiting for the Michigan test |
| 15 |
USC Trojans
|
Caleb Williams folded under the pressure of Oregon State. He's their key to staying ranked |
| 16 |
Wake Forest Demon Deacons
|
Played competitive football against Clemson to the wire |
| 17 |
Minnesota Golden Gophers
|
The 2nd and final benefactor of the collapse of Michigan State football |
