Overall Rationale: Arbitrary personal metrics with some head-to-head sprinkled in
Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Ohio State Buckeyes | (+0) Looking like the best team in the nation; no weeks off |
2 | Tennessee Volunteers | (+1) Looking on the up-and-up, can beat anyone in the nation |
3 | Georgia Bulldogs | (+2) Teams are moving around, stink of the 2 games everyone knows I'm talking about starting to wear off |
4 | TCU Horned Frogs | (+2) Undefeated, played the toughest teams in the conference |
5 | Michigan Wolverines | (-1) Haven't played the toughest segment of the schedule yet (final 2 weeks) |
6 | Clemson Tigers | (-4) I feel a loss incoming, DJ looked like last year form again. A very shaky 7-0 start |
7 | Oregon Ducks | (+9) Great conference win against UCLA, Bo Nix is a Heisman dark horse |
8 | Alabama Crimson Tide | (+0) Mississippi State was never ranked in my poll, this game went about as expected |
9 | Oklahoma State Cowboys | (+3) Counteracted the choke job from last week |
10 | Wake Forest Demon Deacons | (-1) No fault of this team, but the Clemson loss looks worse, and other teams moved around |
11 | Penn State Nittany Lions | (+0) Game against Minnesota went about as expected |
12 | Syracuse Orange | (+1) Moving up after a loss is very odd, however, this team proved themselves to be competitive throughout in their competition against higher ranked opponents |
13 | Kansas State Wildcats | (+1) Same as Syracuse |
14 | UCLA Bruins | (-4) This team's shaky game against USA looks worse now, and their vital conference game felt over by the end of the 3rd quarter |
15 | Utah Utes | (+0) Bye week, still lost to UCLA so below them |
16 | USC Trojans | (+1) Bye week, still lost to Utah so below them |
17 | Tulane Green Wave | (+2) Win against KState still looks good, curse that game against Favre University |
18 | LSU Tigers | (+7) Beat a ranked conference opponent at home at noon |
19 | Ole Miss Rebels | (-12) Lost to LSU at BR at noon |
20 | Illinois Fighting Illini | (+1) Keep on winning |
21 | Liberty Flames | (NR) Keep on winning (somehow, plus the loss to Wake isn't too bad) |
22 | Cincinnati Bearcats | (+2) Keep on winning (somehow, plus the loss to Arkansas sucks) |
23 | North Carolina Tar Heels | (NR) Keep on winning (somehow, plus the loss to Notre Dame sucks) |
24 | Oregon State Beavers | (NR) Competitive against the #16 team here, played ok in other games |
25 | South Carolina Gamecocks | (NR) Beat Kentucky, keeps TAM below the Bowl eligibility line, getting blown out by Georgia is a hallmark of a ranked team |
