Overall Rationale: Arbitrary personal metrics with some head-to-head sprinkled in
Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Clemson Tigers | (+3) Won two games in a row against ranked teams, haven't had a bad week yet |
2 | Ohio State Buckeyes | (+0) Took care of business as expected against Rutgers |
3 | Georgia Bulldogs | (-2) One week of shakiness is understandable. This is two weeks in a row where they haven't played like a top-25 team |
4 | Alabama Crimson Tide | (-1) Bryce Young injury on throwing arm, allowed Arkansas to get back into the game |
5 | Ole Miss Rebels | (+8) Good defense at the end against Kentucky |
6 | Oklahoma State Cowboys | (+2) Good win at Baylor |
7 | Tennessee Volunteers | (-1) Teams shifting around, win against Pitt looking less impressive |
8 | Michigan Wolverines | (-3) Teams shifting around, played in a game not noteworthy |
9 | Penn State Nittany Lions | (+5) Most of these gains are the teams moving around, still won a game in sloppy conditions |
10 | Wake Forest Demon Deacons | (+6) Good win at Florida State, loss to Clemson looks better |
11 | Kentucky Wildcats | (-4) Loss to Ole Miss, need to get shit back together or face damnation against South Carolina |
12 | NC State Wolfpack | (-2) Team showed good play in the first half at Clemson, but fell apart at the hardest place to play in the country |
13 | Oregon Ducks | (-1) Blowout at the hands of Georgia is slightly less forgivable now |
14 | Washington State Cougars | (NR) I overlooked this team by not putting them in the rankings last week, my mistake |
15 | Utah Utes | (NR) Impressed by the decisive win against Oregon State |
16 | TCU Horned Frogs | (NR) Dismantled Oklahoma football, you hate to see it |
17 | USC Trojans | (-2) Shaky 1st half against Arizona State and shaky performance against Oregon State does not inspire confidence |
18 | Kansas Jayhawks | (+5) Another one. Win against Duke also looks more impressive |
19 | Syracuse Orange | (NR) Undefeated, albeit with 2 nailbiters against "lesser" competition |
20 | Kansas State Wildcats | (+1) I'm too high on Texas Tech, but good win |
21 | BYU Cougars | (-3) Less-than-stellar performance against in-state-state rival |
22 | Baylor Bears | (-3) Lost to a good team |
23 | UCLA Bruins | (NR) Beat Washington convincingly, game against South Alabama still making me less than confident in this team |
24 | James Madison Dukes | (+0) Played a football game and won it |
25 | Tulane Green Wave | (NR) Southern Miss loss still stings, but I still like the win against Kansas State a lot |
