Overall Rationale: Head to head, SOS, eye test.
Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Georgia Bulldogs | 11-0, dominated Tennessee. Impressive wins over Ole Miss, Missouri, and Tennessee. Champ is #1 until defeated. |
2 | Washington Huskies | 11-0. The best resume in the country (wins vs USC, Oregon, Utah, Arizona, Oregon St, Mich State, and Boise St). |
3 | Florida State Seminoles | 11-0. What, did they go to the Nick Saban school of late season scheduling? The schedule looks worse by the week. |
4 | Ohio State Buckeyes | 11-0. WR play is crazy, but the defense is sneaky game. Notre Dame win looks good. Next week game determines the #3 spot. |
5 | Michigan Wolverines | 11-0. Maryland kept it closer than it should. No part of Michigan's play looks dominate. |
6 | Texas Longhorns | 10-1. I think their line play is underrated. Win over Alabama maybe the best win of the season. |
7 | Oregon Ducks | 10-1. Took care of a bad team. Jumping Alabama because they actually played someone. |
8 | Alabama Crimson Tide | 10-1. Can't believe they survived Chattanooga. Truly a coaching miracle. |
9 | Louisville Cardinals | 10-1. Beat a tough Miami team, but paper tiger. Amazing WR depth, but no significant stand out talent. |
10 | Missouri Tigers | 9-2. Best two loss team in the country. George loss is understandable, but the LSU loss stings. |
11 | Oklahoma Sooners | 9-2. Texas win is impressive. At their losses aren't embarrassing. |
12 | Oregon State Beavers | 9-2. Lost in a heartbreaker to Washington. Amazing team with a brutal schedule. |
13 | Penn State Nittany Lions | 9-2. Couldn't beat any great teams on their schedule. |
14 | Ole Miss Rebels | 9-2. Woah. Schedule an FCS team for the end of the season, and then was tied 7-3 at half. Yikes. |
15 | Arizona Wildcats | 8-3. Four wins over (then) ranked teams, including a tough Utah. Each loss is a one score game. |
16 | LSU Tigers | 8-3. Who are scheduling these teams? Mizzou win is impressive. Rest of season... Tough losses. Incredible QB play holding up a weak offense. |
17 | Kansas State Wildcats | 8-3. One of the most impressively disciplined teams in the league. |
18 | Iowa Hawkeyes | 9-2. Disgusting lack of offense. |
19 | Notre Dame Fighting Irish | 8-3. Well balanced offense. |
20 | Oklahoma State Cowboys | 8-3. Jekyl and Hyde team. |
21 | NC State Wolfpack | 8-3. Quietly 8-3. |
22 | North Carolina Tar Heels | 8-3. Record looks better than the team is. |
23 | Tulane Green Wave | 10-1. Ole Miss loss ages really well. |
24 | Utah Utes | 7-4. Plays everyone tough, |
25 | Liberty Flames | 11-0. Weak competition, but they're winning. |
