Overall Rationale: Resume/What teams have looked the best so far
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Texas Longhorns
|
Dominant Road win against a good Michigan team |
| 2 |
Georgia Bulldogs
|
Have looked unstoppable but haven’t really been challenged yet |
| 3 |
Ohio State Buckeyes
|
Same as Georgia |
| 4 |
Tennessee Volunteers
|
Looked fantastic against a decent NC State program |
| 5 |
Ole Miss Rebels
|
They’ve out scored their opponents 128-3. Been really impressed |
| 6 |
Alabama Crimson Tide
|
Droppped a bit bc that USF game was ugly |
| 7 |
Oregon Ducks
|
Up a bit for beating a (imo) top-25 Boise team |
| 8 |
Missouri Tigers
|
|
| 9 |
USC Trojans
|
|
| 10 |
Penn State Nittany Lions
|
|
| 11 |
Miami Hurricanes
|
|
| 12 |
Utah Utes
|
|
| 13 |
Oklahoma Sooners
|
I really should drop them lower. That defense looks legit tho |
| 14 |
Kansas State Wildcats
|
Another Big8 team that struggled with a worse opponent |
| 15 |
Oklahoma State Cowboys
|
I dropped us for this. Probably should’ve gotten blown out. Somehow covered. Football is weird, and this game was weirder than most |
| 16 |
Arizona Wildcats
|
Is Arizona good? Maybe? I think so. Will know more after this week |
| 17 |
LSU Tigers
|
The best 1-loss team in the country rn |
| 18 |
Michigan Wolverines
|
No shame in getting blown out by Texas, but this is probably not a playoff team |
| 19 |
Louisville Cardinals
|
|
| 20 |
Nebraska Cornhuskers
|
Nebraska is going bowling this year |
| 21 |
Clemson Tigers
|
Is Clemson good? Yes. Are they great? I don’t know |
| 22 |
Arizona State Sun Devils
|
I’ve been really impressed with them so far |
| 23 |
Washington Huskies
|
|
| 24 |
Boise State Broncos
|
Honestly, probably should’ve beat Oregon on the road. Jeanty should be the front runner for the Heisman |
| 25 |
Iowa State Cyclones
|
I feel like the winner of El Assico needs to be ranked. Scrappy win by an injury riddled ISU |
