Ballot Type: Human
Submitted: Sept. 3, 2024, 4:10 p.m.
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Georgia Bulldogs
|
Did nothing to disprove their top ranking |
| 2 |
Ohio State Buckeyes
|
A slow start, but eventually found their stride. |
| 3 |
Alabama Crimson Tide
|
One word: explosive |
| 4 |
Texas Longhorns
|
Great showing against Colorado State. A win at Michigan will put them at No. 2 for me. |
| 5 |
Notre Dame Fighting Irish
|
Great win on the road in a tough environment. |
| 6 |
Ole Miss Rebels
|
Ole Miss did what any team of its caliber should do against that kind of an opponent. |
| 7 |
Penn State Nittany Lions
|
Nice win on the road in Morgantown. Offense looked improved. |
| 8 |
Missouri Tigers
|
Holding steady |
| 9 |
Oregon Ducks
|
They're better and more talented than what the final score indicated against Idaho, but it was bad showing all around. |
| 10 |
Michigan Wolverines
|
Looked shaky against Fresno State, but I'm willing to grant a little bit of grace given the new coaching staff and new faces on offense |
| 11 |
USC Trojans
|
Great win in Vegas for the Trojans. |
| 12 |
Miami Hurricanes
|
I'm not sure if Florida is that bad or if Miami is that good. Probably a bit of both, but it's early. |
| 13 |
Tennessee Volunteers
|
Nice work by the Vols. |
| 14 |
Oklahoma Sooners
|
A solid showing from the Sooners. |
| 15 |
Utah Utes
|
Cameron Rising is back, and Utah took care of business against Weber State. |
| 16 |
Oklahoma State Cowboys
|
The top of the Big 12 is a bit of a logjam at the moment, but Oklahoma State gets the nod as the conference's second highest ranked team. |
| 17 |
Kansas State Wildcats
|
Kansas State seems solid after Week 1. |
| 18 |
Arizona Wildcats
|
The Arizona offense looked great. The Arizona defense could use some work. |
| 19 |
Kansas Jayhawks
|
If Jalon Daniels can stay healthy, the Jayhawks should contend. |
| 20 |
Iowa Hawkeyes
|
A perceived weaker opponent, but if Iowa can score 30 points with some regularity, they could cause some headaches in the B1G. |
| 21 |
LSU Tigers
|
The LSU defense should be better given the program's access to talent in the region. |
| 22 |
Clemson Tigers
|
Getting blown out by Georgia might be what happens to everyone on the Dawgs' schedule. The Clemson offense definitely needs some work. |
| 23 |
Boise State Broncos
|
Strong showing from Ashton Jeanty, but the Broncos gave up way too many points to Georgia Southern. |
| 24 |
Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets
|
Georgia Tech is 2-0, but their win against Florida State has lost its shine. |
| 25 |
Memphis Tigers
|
The Tigers blanked North Alabama on Saturday which I think is worth mentioning. |
