| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Georgia Bulldogs
|
20+ game win streak, still winning |
| 2 |
Florida State Seminoles
|
In the driver's seat to win the ACC. |
| 3 |
Ohio State Buckeyes
|
Should win the dogfight that is the B1G East |
| 4 |
Michigan Wolverines
|
Team most likely to beat an Ohio State University |
| 5 |
Washington Huskies
|
Best of the West, should win the Pac12 |
| 6 |
Oklahoma Sooners
|
Winning the Shootout is a big step forward; in the driver's seat to make the XII championship game |
| 7 |
Texas Longhorns
|
Loss in Dallas hurts, but will likely get Oklahoma again in a few weeks. |
| 8 |
Penn State Nittany Lions
|
Solid team, would compete for a championship in most conferences but will struggle to break second in the B1G East |
| 9 |
Alabama Crimson Tide
|
Good one loss team. Needs to stay clean the rest of the way and can make the playoffs. |
| 10 |
Oregon Ducks
|
Big game next week against Washington. |
| 11 |
North Carolina Tar Heels
|
Second best team in the ACC, should make the CCG. |
| 12 |
Ole Miss Rebels
|
Loss to Bama will likely keep Ole Miss out of the CCG. Should make an NY6 Bowl. |
| 13 |
USC Trojans
|
13th is probably overrated. |
| 14 |
Louisville Cardinals
|
Undefeated and can make noise in the ACC. Nonzero chance they miss the CCG while undefeated. |
| 15 |
Utah Utes
|
Losing Cam long term is bad news. |
| 16 |
Oregon State Beavers
|
Circular firing squad is in full effect. |
| 17 |
UCLA Bruins
|
One of the best defenses in the NCAA |
| 18 |
Washington State Cougars
|
Circular firing squad is in full effect. |
| 19 |
Tennessee Volunteers
|
|
| 20 |
Notre Dame Fighting Irish
|
|
| 21 |
Kansas Jayhawks
|
The only Hateful 8 Team worth ranking; OU's biggest threat the rest of the year |
| 22 |
Tulane Green Wave
|
|
| 23 |
Memphis Tigers
|
|
| 24 |
Air Force Falcons
|
Best in the Mountain West; favorable schedule could leave the Falcons undefeated |
| 25 |
LSU Tigers
|
The Brian Kelly experience continues, like a bad jambalaya. |
