| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Vanderbilt Commodores
|
One week only ranking, but in the words of the elders, “The king is dead, long live the king.” |
| 2 |
Texas Longhorns
|
Will resume their position at #1 next week (assuming they handle OU), only to lose it after falling to UGA the following week. |
| 3 |
Ohio State Buckeyes
|
Could make a strong argument for 1st over the next three weeks. |
| 4 |
Miami Hurricanes
|
Went into a tough ACC environment and found a way to win. Cam Ward is a real one. |
| 5 |
Penn State Nittany Lions
|
Could make an argument for 4th. |
| 6 |
Oregon Ducks
|
May in fact be posers. |
| 7 |
BYU Cougars
|
Not sexy, but when has that stopped them before? |
| 8 |
Iowa State Cyclones
|
Meh |
| 9 |
Indiana Hoosiers
|
Why do I have the B1G leading team so low? |
| 10 |
Army West Point
|
Toss up for 10/11, but football isn’t played on water so I gave the edge to Army. |
| 11 |
Navy Midshipmen
|
Toss up for 10/11, but football isn’t played on water so I gave the edge to Army. |
| 12 |
Liberty Flames
|
They really don’t deserve to be here. |
| 13 |
Alabama Crimson Tide
|
Haha |
| 14 |
Georgia Bulldogs
|
Don’t screw up this Mississippi State game, Kirby… |
| 15 |
Tennessee Volunteers
|
You can’t lose to Arky and not fall from grace, especially when Dark Lord Petrino is pulling the strings. |
| 16 |
Oklahoma Sooners
|
Maybe they win the RRS and maybe they’ll get some respect. Maybe it’s Maybelline. |
| 17 |
Illinois Fighting Illini
|
Have beaten some good teams with more opportunities ahead. |
| 18 |
Nebraska Cornhuskers
|
Can’t put them ahead of Illinois, but I think they’ve got 10-win potential (no way they beat Ohio State). |
| 19 |
Ole Miss Rebels
|
Circle of suck w/SC and Kentucky, but I think they don’t lose again until UGA comes to town. |
| 20 |
LSU Tigers
|
Still think they’re posers. |
| 21 |
Texas A&M Aggies
|
Still think they’re posers. |
| 22 |
Missouri Tigers
|
Still think they’re posers. |
| 23 |
Notre Dame Fighting Irish
|
Still think they’re posers. |
| 24 |
Boise State Broncos
|
Not sure about these guys. |
| 25 |
UNLV Rebels
|
I just wanted to throw them a bone, but I think there’s something special here and they could end up with 10 wins. |
