| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Washington Huskies
|
So far through five weeks they have seemed to be the best team in the country. |
| 2 |
Ohio State Buckeyes
|
Last night’s game and the last drive showed that this team has championship DNA and an ability to pull out tight games. Really felt like a CFP game. |
| 3 |
Michigan Wolverines
|
Played well against Rutgers, this team looks shaky at times but finds a way to win. |
| 4 |
Georgia Bulldogs
|
They are undefeated but haven’t showed an ability to win another championship |
| 5 |
Texas Longhorns
|
This is a good team, but they have faltered during games and I’m not moved by a win against Baylor |
| 6 |
Florida State Seminoles
|
Pulled out a win in Clemson yesterday it was a good win but other teams have played better, that Boston college almost loss isn’t helping |
| 7 |
Penn State Nittany Lions
|
Shut out an inept Iowa offense and proved they can win against undefeated squads. |
| 8 |
Utah Utes
|
Played a defensive battle against UCLA and held the offense to only 7 points. Yet they only scored 14 themselves. |
| 9 |
USC Trojans
|
Played a tight game in Arizona St but pulled out the win. |
| 10 |
Notre Dame Fighting Irish
|
Played a heck of a game against OSU, this team is for real but just lost on a last minute drive. |
| 11 |
Oregon Ducks
|
Walloped Colorado who I wasn’t super confident in as it was. Bo Nix is playing lights out through 4 games. |
| 12 |
Oklahoma Sooners
|
Beat a Cincy team that’s struggling after a loss to rival Miami (OH) last week. This team is legit |
| 13 |
Duke Blue Devils

Struggled against Arkansas, I’m concerned for them. |
