Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Oct. 20, 2024, 2:39 a.m.

Rank Team Reason
1 Oregon Ducks High powered offense that can beat anyone.
2 Georgia Bulldogs Strong wins against Texas and Clemson, early season rust seems to be gone.
3 Ohio State Buckeyes Best loss of any team and can go toe-to-toe with anybody. Have crushed all non-Oregon opponents.
4 Penn State Nittany Lions Record doesn't lie. Still some questions with close game at USC but a strong win over a good Illinois squad.
5 Texas Longhorns Didn't look great in loss to Georgia but had a decent defensive performace and showed signs of life in the 2nd half. Very strong otherwise and has flexibility at QB.
6 LSU Tigers USC loss keeps looking worse but the team keeps looking better.
7 Clemson Tigers Game 1 Georgia loss looking less bad by the week and this team has been rolling ever since.
8 Indiana Hoosiers They finally played somebody. It didn't go well for somebody. Cignetti is cooking.
9 Miami Hurricanes On fraud watch but still 7-0 with Cam Ward.
10 Tennessee Volunteers Excellent defense and strong conference wins. Still a team to look out for in the SEC.
11 Texas A&M Aggies Handling business in conference play.
12 Iowa State Cyclones Can win when it matters but doesn't look particularly convincing. The Big 12 is a knife fight.
13 Notre Dame Fighting Irish You just can't lose to Northern Illinois.
14 Boise State Broncos Ashton Jeanty.
15 BYU Cougars Iowa State on Mountain Time.
16 Kansas State Wildcats
17 Illinois Fighting Illini If the Purdue game remains an outlier Illinois remains a threat.
18 Ole Miss Rebels Alabama with slightly better losses and more fake injuries.
19 Alabama Crimson Tide An Alabama team with two losses before Halloween is something to see.
20 Army West Point
21 Pittsburgh Panthers
22 SMU Mustangs
23 Navy Midshipmen
24 Vanderbilt Commodores Can beat anybody. Can lose to almost anybody. The ultimate wild card of CFB.
25 Missouri Tigers Someone has to be ranked #25, and everyone at the top of the "receiving votes" column lost. But this team isn't actually good.
