Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Ohio State Buckeyes | Ohio State is undefeated and has wins over Maryland (5-1) and Notre Dame (5-2) |
2 | Oklahoma Sooners | Oklahoma is undefeated and has a very nice win over Texas (5-1) |
3 | Penn State Nittany Lions | Penn State is undefeated and has nice wins over Iowa (5-1) and West Virginia (4-1) |
4 | Florida State Seminoles | Florida State is undefeated with wins over LSU (4-2) and Clemson (4-2) |
5 | Georgia Bulldogs | Georgia is undefeated with a win over Kentucky (5-1) |
6 | Louisville Cardinals | Louisville is undefeated with a dominating win over Notre Dame (5-2) |
7 | Oregon Ducks | Oregon is undefeated with a dominant win over Colorado (4-2). Huge game coming up vs Washington. |
8 | USC Trojans | USC is undefeated with a win over Colorado (4-2). |
9 | Texas Longhorns | Texas suffered their first loss of the year to Oklahoma, but still has a nice 5-1 record and a very nice win over Alabama (5-1) |
10 | Alabama Crimson Tide | Alabama is 5-1 with a loss to Texas and a nice win over Ole Miss (5-1) |
11 | Washington Huskies | Washington is undefeated but lacking a win over a quality opponent. They have a big chance to get one this weekend vs Oregon. |
12 | North Carolina Tar Heels | North Carolina is undefeated but the teams they've beaten have slipped in records, so they're here with Washington and Michigan as undefeated teams without high quality wins. Best win is probably Syracuse (4-2) |
13 | Michigan Wolverines | Michigan is undefeated but has played a pretty awful schedule. Parade of cupcakes continues this week with Indiana. |
14 | Washington State Cougars | It's really hard to rank the group of 1 loss Pac12 teams as they've all played each other and have weird wins that prevent me from just putting the team that beat each other ahead of them. I think they're all pretty equal and thus this clump of Pac12 teams from 14-17 in my poll. Washington State is 4-1 with wins over Oregon State (5-1) and Wisconsin (4-1). Only loss is to UCLA. their 2 quality wins bumps them to the top. |
15 | Utah Utes | Utah is 4-1 with wins over UCLA (4-1) and Florida (4-2). They have a loss to Oregon State. |
16 | Oregon State Beavers | Oregon State has a very nice win over Utah (4-1) with only a 3 point loss at Wassu. |
17 | UCLA Bruins | UCLA is 4-1 with a loss to Utah and a nice win over Washington State (4-1) |
18 | Ole Miss Rebels | Ole Miss is 5-1 with a loss to Alabama (5-1) and a nice win over LSU (4-2) |
19 | Kentucky Wildcats | Kentucky is 5-1 with a loss to Georgia and a win over Florida (4-2) |
20 | Miami Hurricanes | Miami is 5-1 after a heartbreaking loss to Georgia Tech. Best win is over Texas A&M (4-2) |
21 | Duke Blue Devils | Duke is 5-1 with a loss to Notre Dame (5-2) and a win over Clemson (4-2) |
22 | Air Force Falcons | Air Force is undefeated, but lacks quality wins. |
23 | Liberty Flames | Liberty is undefeated but lacks quality wins. |
24 | Wisconsin Badgers | Wisconsin is 4-1 with their only loss being to Wassu. Lacking quality wins. |
25 | Tennessee Volunteers | Tennessee is 4-1 but really hasn't beaten anyone. |
