Overall Rationale: Utilizing personal formulae to develop a ranking of the best teams based on their resumes, though with some human correction (This week messed with things big time haha)
| Rank | Team | Reason | 
|---|---|---|
| 1 |  Ohio State Buckeyes | |
| 2 |  Texas Longhorns | Not a fan of a bye team sliding into #1 unless they have a good reason | 
| 3 |  Penn State Nittany Lions | |
| 4 |  Oregon Ducks | |
| 5 |  Miami Hurricanes | |
| 6 |  Tennessee Volunteers | |
| 7 |  Alabama Crimson Tide | |
| 8 |  Georgia Bulldogs | |
| 9 |  BYU Cougars | One of the best resumes in the country right now | 
| 10 |  Iowa State Cyclones | |
| 11 |  Ole Miss Rebels | |
| 12 |  Indiana Hoosiers | |
| 13 |  Notre Dame Fighting Irish | |
| 14 |  Texas A&M Aggies | Look like a brand new team after their domination of Mizzou | 
| 15 |  Kansas State Wildcats | |
| 16 |  Utah Utes | |
| 17 |  Washington Huskies | |
| 18 |  LSU Tigers | |
| 19 |  Boise State Broncos | |
| 20 |  Clemson Tigers | |
| 21 |  Missouri Tigers | |
| 22 |  SMU Mustangs | |
| 23 |  Michigan Wolverines | Almost deserved to get dropped altogether, still a LOT to figure out for Michigan | 
| 24 |  Pittsburgh Panthers | |
| 25 |  USC Trojans | Can't win outside their time zone, they almost deserved getting dropped altogether |
