Overall Rationale: Next teams out are Iowa, Tulane, Louisiana-Lafayette, Missouri, Minnesota, Louisville, Texas Tech, and Arizona State
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Oregon Ducks
|
Obvious #1, really the only easy ranking of this poll |
| 2 |
Georgia Bulldogs
|
Dawgs played Florida close but closed it out in the end, can't play like that against Ole Miss or Tennessee |
| 3 |
Ohio State Buckeyes
|
Beat Penn State, again |
| 4 |
Miami Hurricanes
|
Looked really good in the second half, there's a chance they don't blow it this year, I still don't trust them |
| 5 |
Texas Longhorns
|
Horns benefit from Penn State losing to slightly rise |
| 6 |
BYU Cougars
|
They good! |
| 7 |
Indiana Hoosiers
|
Every Indiana game I look at the score and they're up 7-3 midway through the 2nd and I think "Are they going to lose this time" and then I check again and they're up 40-10 at the start of the 4th quarter. |
| 8 |
Penn State Nittany Lions
|
Something something Emails, I don't know this is getting old |
| 9 |
Tennessee Volunteers
|
Should probably be higher, oh well, shouldn't've lost to Arkansas |
| 10 |
Notre Dame Fighting Irish
|
Navy win isn't as good, just keep winning and maybe the CFP committee forgets about NIU, they were on bye this week |
| 11 |
Boise State Broncos
|
Boise State finally sees movement upwards, only took multiple teams ahead of them getting upset and beating SDSU by 32 |
| 12 |
SMU Mustangs
|
Am I high on them? Yes, were they up 48-11 on a previously undefeated Pitt? Also yes |
| 13 |
Alabama Crimson Tide
|
LSU game is probably, hopefully a playoff elimination game for one of the teams |
| 14 |
LSU Tigers
|
Probably worse than this, we'll see |
| 15 |
Ole Miss Rebels
|
Fine, I'll move you up again |
| 16 |
Iowa State Cyclones
|
Damn, man |
| 17 |
Clemson Tigers
|
Teams that didn't use the transfer portal this offseason went 1-3 this week |
| 18 |
Texas A&M Aggies
|
wow |
| 19 |
Pittsburgh Panthers
|
Still decent, just not great |
| 20 |
Army West Point
|
Needs Daily back, what happened to Air Force, they were ranked last season. |
| 21 |
Colorado Buffaloes
|
VERY good bye week, control their own destiny to make the playoffs, I think? |
| 22 |
Washington State Cougars
|
Bye week, minimal movement |
| 23 |
Kansas State Wildcats
|
Big XII is cannibalizing itself to a point where Colorado has found themselves a path to winning it, and I don't know if they're any good still! |
| 24 |
Vanderbilt Commodores
|
"Diego Pavia is Hugh Freeze father" 1,000,000 unoriginal commenters |
| 25 |
South Carolina Gamecocks
|
Beat a ranked opponent, you get ranked and the opponent doesn't get unranked, such is the life in the SEC |
