Submitted: Oct. 3, 2022, 8:09 a.m.
Overall Rationale: Based on performance and strength of opponent
Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Ohio State Buckeyes | Both Georgia and Alabama have had shaky games, OSU has not yet |
2 | Georgia Bulldogs | Survived an upset bid on the road, showed grit by a veteran QB to pull that game out. On paper though it never should have been close |
3 | Alabama Crimson Tide | |
4 | Clemson Tigers | A big game win over a ranked conference opponent moves Clemson over Michigan, who still hasn't played anyone good yet |
5 | Michigan Wolverines | Still hasn't played anyone good yet, did not drop because of their own performance, but was jumped by a great Clemson performance |
6 | Oklahoma State Cowboys | |
7 | Tennessee Volunteers | |
8 | USC Trojans | The best team on paper in the Pac-12, I'm not convinced, but they have survived multiple games that seemed like they could be traps |
9 | Utah Utes | I believe Utah is the best Pac-12 team, we will soon see |
10 | Penn State Nittany Lions | Gutted out a win in terrible weather. The offense was bad (5 turnovers), but some of that can be attributed to the rain |
11 | Ole Miss Rebels | Big win over Kentucky, Ole Miss seems like last year, a NY6 contender that's just outside playoff consideration |
12 | Oregon Ducks | |
13 | Wake Forest Demon Deacons | |
14 | BYU Cougars | |
15 | Kentucky Wildcats | Lost a tough game on the road, they can hopefully bounce back |
16 | Kansas State Wildcats | |
17 | NC State Wolfpack | Played tough against a very good Clemson team |
18 | Kansas Jayhawks | |
19 | Syracuse Orange | |
20 | TCU Horned Frogs | |
21 | Baylor Bears | |
22 | James Madison Dukes | One of the best offenses in college football, deserves to be ranked and may very well "win" the SBC |
23 | UCLA Bruins | |
24 | Washington Huskies | |
25 | LSU Tigers |
