Submitted: Oct. 30, 2022, 4:32 p.m.
Overall Rationale: Best I can determine.
Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Tennessee Volunteers | They look like the best right now, all their games have been impressive. |
2 | Georgia Bulldogs | Close behind the above, can't forget about that Oregon win. |
3 | TCU Horned Frogs | Kind of a hot take, but they've beat so many ranked teams, even if always from behind. Prove to me that Michigan and Ohio State can beat better first. |
4 | Michigan Wolverines | Crap shoot between the Buckeyes and the Wolverines. Figured I'd put them here just because it is a little more unorthodox. |
5 | Ohio State Buckeyes | See above. |
6 | Clemson Tigers | Syracuse was robbed, Wake Forest win much less impressive. |
7 | Oregon Ducks | Playing great since that horrific loss. |
8 | USC Trojans | Close loss, otherwise good. |
9 | Alabama Crimson Tide | Too many close games. |
10 | North Carolina Tar Heels | They beat teams, even if barely. Notre Dame loss is always so random. |
11 | Tulane Green Wave | K-State win is great, Southern Miss loss is bad, but they look good. I chalk up the loss to being worn out by K-state. |
12 | UCLA Bruins | Looking alright but Oregon loss bad. |
13 | Liberty Flames | Not really impressive schedule, but one point loss to Wake Forest is permissible. |
14 | Ole Miss Rebels | One loss, but no good wins. |
15 | Illinois Fighting Illini | Bad loss, but hey they win. |
16 | Kansas State Wildcats | Destroyed Oklahoma State and booted them from this list, played well against good teams. |
17 | Penn State Nittany Lions | Chokes against the best, but otherwise performs as expected. |
18 | Syracuse Orange | Robbed against Clemson, Notre Dame is weird. |
19 | LSU Tigers | Neither loss is horrible. |
20 | Maryland Terrapins | Honestly surprised they have performed so well. |
21 | UCF Knights | Head-to-head. |
22 | Cincinnati Bearcats | |
23 | UTSA Roadrunners | Quality losses. |
24 | Coastal Carolina Chanticleers | Not sure. |
25 | South Alabama Jaguars | Just what my calculations spit out. |
