| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Oregon Ducks
|
|
| 2 |
Penn State Nittany Lions
|
|
| 3 |
Ohio State Buckeyes
|
1 point loss against the #1 team isn't bad and it doesn't drop them too far |
| 4 |
Tennessee Volunteers
|
|
| 5 |
Iowa State Cyclones
|
|
| 6 |
Georgia Bulldogs
|
That loss to Alabama looks not good now especially after the Crimson Tide lost to both Vanderbilt and Tennesee |
| 7 |
Texas Longhorns
|
|
| 8 |
Miami Hurricanes
|
|
| 9 |
LSU Tigers
|
|
| 10 |
BYU Cougars
|
|
| 11 |
Clemson Tigers
|
That drubbing by Georgia is the only blemish but the competition hasn't been good |
| 12 |
Indiana Hoosiers
|
Paper soft schedule but they've managed win ever single game which isn't always easy |
| 13 |
Notre Dame Fighting Irish
|
That was a bad loss at home but otherwise they've been good |
| 14 |
Texas A&M Aggies
|
A&M has been pretty good this year including |
| 15 |
SMU Mustangs
|
I've been impressed with how the Mustangs have transitioned to the Power 4 |
| 16 |
Illinois Fighting Illini
|
The only loss is to Penn State which isn't that bad but they have a massive test next week |
| 17 |
Pittsburgh Panthers
|
The toughest test for the Panthers is still ahead but it's impressive that they've managed to get to late October undefeated |
| 18 |
Kansas State Wildcats
|
Very good team with one blemish on the season but with the magnitude of the loss it drops them down quite a few spots |
| 19 |
Boise State Broncos
|
This team is firing on all cylinders and looks to be the favorite to come out of the G5 |
| 20 |
Army West Point
|
They've beaten everybody laid out in front of them yet but I need to see them beat Notre Dame before I jump them higher up |
| 21 |
Navy Midshipmen
|
Same thing as Army |
| 22 |
Syracuse Orange
|
Outside of a blip against Stanford, they have been a solid team that hasn't been super flashy but has gotten the job done |
| 23 |
Missouri Tigers
|
The drubbing by Texas A&M and barely escaping Auburn is an awful look and has made me sour on the Tigers |
| 24 |
Ole Miss Rebels
|
The loss to Kentucky was bad and there is no other way around it |
| 25 |
Duke Blue Devils
|
Same thing as Syracuse except that their loss was to the Yellow Jackets |
