Overall Rationale: Eye test, previous rank, common opponents, injuries and overall collective performance (eye test). Includes my playoff ranking.
Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Michigan Wolverines | At halftime I was debating on UW being here, but a 26 point shutout is plenty enough. |
2 | Washington Huskies | An argument for UW to be #1 could be made but it’s hard to argue against a 26-0 shutout. |
3 | Texas Longhorns | Has one of the best wins and has looked dominant since Ewers got healthy. #1 choice between the other 3 possible teams. |
4 | Alabama Crimson Tide | My stance is “best 4 teams” not “4 most deserving”. I understand that others will go the “deserving” route but I cant go against the criteria of “best 4 teams” from the CFP Committee mission/charter statements. |
5 | Florida State Seminoles | If they’re in, it’s due to the “most deserving vs better team “ argument. Leaving them 5 as first one out since it’s between them and Bama. |
6 | Georgia Bulldogs | |
7 | Ohio State Buckeyes | |
8 | Oregon Ducks | |
9 | Missouri Tigers | |
10 | Penn State Nittany Lions | |
11 | Ole Miss Rebels | |
12 | Oklahoma Sooners | |
13 | LSU Tigers | |
14 | Notre Dame Fighting Irish | |
15 | Arizona Wildcats | |
16 | Oregon State Beavers | |
17 | Liberty Flames | |
18 | Louisville Cardinals | |
19 | NC State Wolfpack | |
20 | Tennessee Volunteers | |
21 | Utah Utes | |
22 | Iowa Hawkeyes | |
