Submitted: Oct. 8, 2023, 3:34 a.m.
Overall Rationale: Trying to go mostly off resume now but some teams still ain't played nobody
Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Michigan Wolverines | Is one of the few teams that hasn't looked shaky yet this year (+1) |
2 | Ohio State Buckeyes | Another ranked win but that one against Notre Dame looks worse now (+1) |
3 | Oklahoma Sooners | Great win against Texas. Played an awful schedule outside of that though which keeps them from the top spot (+7) |
4 | Penn State Nittany Lions | Giving them a slight edge over Georgia because I think the Iowa and Kentucky games are equally impressive and Penn State has fared better against other P5 teams (+0) |
5 | Georgia Bulldogs | Dominated Kentucky but those performances versus South Carolina and Auburn still look bad (+1) |
6 | Washington Huskies | Win over Arizona looking a bit better (-1) |
7 | Florida State Seminoles | Didn't win by as much as they probably should've but at the end of the year it'll hardly matter (+0) |
8 | Oregon Ducks | On a bye so not much to say. Big game coming up against Washington that could decide one of the spots for the conference championship (+0) |
9 | Texas Longhorns | Prevent never works. Will most likely have a chance for revenge at the end of the year (-8) |
10 | North Carolina Tar Heels | In the top 10 almost by default, still not determined if they're a major contender for the ACC (+2) |
11 | USC Trojans | Gets away with it again somehow but this can't continue forever (-2) |
12 | Louisville Cardinals | Excellent win over Notre Dame and they could be a threat to Florida State if they keep this up (+8) |
13 | Alabama Crimson Tide | Another close one versus A&M but they pulled it out (+1) |
14 | Ole Miss Rebels | Close against Arkansas. Only in 14th because of the ridiculous amount of shenanigans that took place behind (+1) |
15 | Washington State Cougars | So the next four teams have already managed to form a circle of suck with not much separating them. Washington State gets the top spot with their win over Wisconsin (-4) |
16 | Utah Utes | Utah grabs the second with a win over Florida (+8) |
17 | UCLA Bruins | And UCLA gets the third due to beating San Diego State by more than what Oregon State did (NR) |
18 | Oregon State Beavers | And Oregon State gets the fourth after giving up 40 to Cal (-2) |
19 | Duke Blue Devils | Despite all the chaos Duke holds 19th on their bye (+0) |
20 | Maryland Terrapins | Fought in the first half but Ohio State pulled away in the second. Still has a very good shot at 9-3 (-3) |
21 | Wisconsin Badgers | Good win over Rutgers puts them back in the top 25 (NR) |
22 | Tennessee Volunteers | Back in the rankings after 5 teams dropped out (NR) |
23 | Air Force Falcons | Undefeated and probably the new best G5 team with Fresno State dropping but Wyoming is close behind (NR) |
24 | Notre Dame Fighting Irish | I hate to rank a 2 loss team so early in the season but they have a win over Duke and the teams behind them have nothing (-11) |
25 | Kansas Jayhawks | Ranked again after blowing out UCF (NR) Next up(In no particular order): Missouri, Tulane, Liberty, Iowa, BYU, Wyoming, West Virginia, UNLV, Colorado, LSU, JMU, Memphis |
