• Analysis

Rank	Team	Reason
1	Florida State Seminoles
2	Texas Longhorns
3	Michigan Wolverines
4	Georgia Bulldogs
5	Penn State Nittany Lions
6	Ohio State Buckeyes
7	Notre Dame Fighting Irish
8	USC Trojans
9	Alabama Crimson Tide
10	Washington Huskies
11	Oregon Ducks
12	Oregon State Beavers
13	Tennessee Volunteers
14	LSU Tigers
15	Utah Utes	I almost dropped them out of top 15 but figured since Rising is yet to return and they have two P5 wins without him I’d at least keep them here
16	Oklahoma Sooners
17	Duke Blue Devils
18	Miami Hurricanes
19	Ole Miss Rebels
20	Kansas State Wildcats
21	Colorado Buffaloes
22	North Carolina Tar Heels
23	Tulane Green Wave	I kept Tulane in the top 25 because they were still in the game with ole miss with their backup QB. I also believe they would’ve beaten Ole Miss if Michael Pratt had played. While I can’t prove that, I think it’s enough to keep them in the top 25
24	Washington State Cougars
25	Mississippi State Bulldogs	Underrated
